I can't believe Aussies aren't supporting their heroes Peyton Royce and Billie Kay :(

Although it doesn't particularly surprise me that WWE isn't able to fill that large of a building to capacity with this show. I don't think there's as much of an audience for these particular matches as they thought. I wouldn't really want to see a host of tag matches in lieu of feud toppers.

I always dug Mia Yim entirely for her spot of bouncing off the ropes -> HEADLOCK. It's so good I'm surprised I've never seen any other wrestler do that.

We also can't forget about the BIG DOG. Biggest draw in history, just ask Vince!

On a semi-related note, is there a storyline on Raw that's interesting right now? I can't really think of anything on either show that I have any interest in right now, aside from Becky.

Nikki is much better than Brie and has been for a long time

How do you botch a yes kick. They're just sitting there.

Edit: Just saw a gif of it on twitter. After the first one you'd think she'd pull up, but nope. Gotta kick her in the face a second time.

Maybe that's why people think Nikki is actually good. She's an extreme version of "good by comparison" because the comparison is literally a twin.

I'm not saying they should be considered a unit at this point. I'm saying still considering them one would explain a lot about NBIceman's disdain and why he said "but the Bellas!!" when Brie made a major botch.

Problems were that she was

1. Kicking a bit too high to begin with.
2. Got excited, kicked a bit higher.

To be fair, I think someone better at selling could've probably prevented that. Like if Liv straightens up to make her kick lower on her chest I think she doesn't get kicked in the face there.

(No I'm not trying to apologize for Brie she's really bad just giving commentary on what I see)

She was probably too rattled to think of straightening up, and Brie was kicking too fast too.

This screams to me that she hasn't been training much. Because her response to botching the dive to the outside TWICE was that she weighs differently now and didn't try it until then. Like... What do you mean you didn't try it until then?

On the plus side, at least Miz doesn't have the worst Yes Kicks now!

If it was Brie or Nikki that was hurt the match probably would have been stopped. They don't want to call attention to a Bella screwing up though. This is another thing where they talk a big game, but it's really all talk. Kind of like Steph claiming they got to where they are by listening to the fans. Everybody knows that's an absolute load.

Okay, for some reason on Wrestling Observer they made it seem like Brie was the one who drug her by her neck. Still, anyone dragging her by the neck when she could have a potential neck injury is absurd and I don't know how the referee and everyone in the back didn't immediately do something.

I just saw a clip.

Brie drug Liv by the neck to her corner. And the second Liv goes down from the kicks, Nattie and Nikki go from doing the yes chant gleefully to looking absolutely concerned.

And Brie has actually hurt herself or others in every match since coming back and it's only been a month. I remember her really clobbering Miz once and legit kneeing Zelina Vega in the face.

I mean now Brie Bella is the most unsafe, but Nia is always the most unsafe most times.

As they should be! Unfortunately for them, if they said anything to Brie they'd probably both be fired because how dare you speak to a Bella that way!

Hell, I think pretty much everybody should be pissed at her for that. There are so many layers of incompetence in what she did that you'd think even Bryan would have something to say to her (okay, maybe he wouldn't be pissed, but he could try to teach her how to... kick)
