They turn Charlotte heel, she gets bigger pops than when she was a face. And Ronda gets booed after copping one of the bigger beatings a woman has taken in WWE. They'll have to turn her heel so she can get cheered.

The conspiracy theory is they're trying to give Charlotte Becky's gimmick because they still want to do Charlotte vs Ronda to main event Wrestlemania because Charlotte is friends with Stephanie and she's always pushing for Charlotte to be just one notch below Ronda. But the fans are going to be all over the match if Becky has it taken away from her. It will be worse than Roman's reactions.

If they do that Becky should just quit WWE. She would probably make more money doing indies anyway.

It's harder for women on the indies. Nobody can be like Cody getting booked for top dollar in dream matches because there's no equal star to Becky on the indies.

She could wrestle the TNA girls on indies/All-In etc., it wouldn't be that bad. It depends on what she's getting in WWE but if it's fairly low ($200k range) then she should be able to make more than that on the indies with some decent merch.

Obviously she won't do that and has the potential to earn a fair bit more in WWE if they start pushing her t-shirts, but she's one of the few women that could do well on the indies, at least for a couple of years.

not got round to the main show yet but the nxt one was pretty fun, alarmingly it seemed more enjoyable than most of the main wwe ppv's, not sure what that says about the company really but it aint good

I'm watching SURVIVOR SERIES and here's my thoughts.

RAW WOMEN vs SMACKDOWN WOMEN: Sonya Deville and Nia Jax are seriously wowwing me so far. Renee Young sounds like she should narrate porn for the blind and not do commentary for a WWE PPV. This Deville chick is the complete package - good on offense and can sell quite tremendously. Deville lands on her head in a nasty bump. Owwfuck. Asuka fucking kills Sasha Banks and I pop. I want an Asuka/Sasha two hour iron man match now. My god these two have the CHEMISTRY. Nia Jax with some FUCKERY and I pop and she wins. Loving a real female monster heel and I loved this fucking match to pieces. ***1/2

When did Baron Corbin shave his head? He is not a good reciter of overly scripted verbage. Paige looks like a corpse and there are more bad jokes and bad acting. Pew.

Tom Phillips looks like a social studies teacher.

SETH ROLLINS vs NAKAMURA

This was ok? Plain. Meh. I couldn't get sucked into it. Not sure why. Anyway Rollins wins I guess. Yay.

More scripted verbiage from the Raw lockeroom!

THE BAR WITH THE POSES with BIG SHOE vs AOP with some midget

This looks vanilla as shit too. Let's fast forward to the two matches I care about because I can't care about pretty much anything else here.

CHARLOTTE FLAIR vs ROWDY RONDA ROUSEY

This could be pretty interesting. Let's see if Flair's as good as bringing out the best in others as her father was. I seriously like the introductions before big matches that they're doing now.Makes these matches feel special. I'm seriously liking this so far. Feels very old school. WE HAVE BLUUD and I wonder if they're gonna stop the match for fifteen minutes because of a wee boo boo. Nice hard shots here....I am loving this. Ronda channels Kurt Angle and this match is the bees knees. I bet you a million dollars he's helped develop her as a wrestler. HOLY SHIT Ronda with a counter to that neckbraker of Charlotte's and this is my new favorite match. Not really but yeah. GODDAMN THAT SPEAR NEARFALL MADE ME FUCKING MARK. ANOTHER COUNTER INTO THE FIGURE FOUR I AM NOT WORTHY OF THIS MATCH. Much deserved this is awesome chant here. Charlotte's selling is so on point. Her father must be proud. Kind of out there finish but in the context of the match it kinda makes sense. Call the whole thing ***1/2 And then Charlotte falls apart and tries to kill Ronda just like her father used to when he would drop the nature boy persona and go into psychopath mode. Great shit. I want a rematch. Yanno what. It's my review and I loved that shit so it gets another half star. **** Mad props to Rousey for taking those shots and not pussying out.

DANIEL BRYAN vs BROCKASAURUS

The match starts from the entrances with a lil' psychology and I love this already. They haven't touched in five minutes and I'm not sure what they're going for here. JESUS CHRIST that released german hurt ME. GOD DAMN OWW that belly to belly. This is a slaughter and these bumps look ouch. Comeback time for Bryan. Oh wait a fucking ref bump into a WEENORZ shot. Lol. NEARFALL! Hey I bought that! Nifty comeback on Bryan's park and Lesnar's selling is on point. That running knee on Lesnar was on FLEEK! Another nearfall. I'm liking this. OH SHIT F5 INTO THE YES LOCK I FEEEEELT THAT SEQUENCE!!!! GOD DAMN THAT F5. Slow match that built into a formulaic Brock match but I felt those last few minutes. ***1/4

Someone needs to tell Ronda she is embarrassing herself on twitter. "Marinating in penis envy." Ugh.

the question of the modern age 'was Spud (still cant get used to Drake Maverick, dunb name they gave him he'll always be Spud to me) terrified or did he strategically piss himself as a distraction' if its option 2 it worked if not well at least it gave BIg Show a good laugh, seems to be a hit backstage as well (think this bits from raw)

further mick takes

WWE putting restrictions on where their UK talent can work

http://www.ringsidenews.com/2018/11/26/ ... owed-work/

There's talk this will negatively effect the U.K. Independent circuit. WWE already signed up talent who were to appear on WOS Wrestling too.

So it sounds like Raw wasn't good this week. I haven't watched it. Don't think I'll bother.

Yea I have heard it was one of the worst ever. I only catch the recap version of Raw now and even then it drags on. But when they are the #1 company they don't need to try. They got Spud pissing on a robe as an angle...didn't he piss himself on ppv too?. WTF that's Russo level bad.
