Given how popular Becky is, I wonder if some people will treat that as a Ronda heel turn.

But she was clearly a DISTANT third in terms of popularity in this match. Her holding the title is I feel really really bad for the title overall. Becky/Charlotte/Ronda clearly is going to happen and be big but in the meantime Asukas gonna do what? Fight Mandy Rose? Peyton Royce? --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/chXIw06 ...

She's well liked but her reception was like FAIRLY lukewarm. Like she got cheers and like....a reaction. She's not some Dean Ambrose over here. Its just... no one actually wanted her to win I dont think.
Also just since we were ragging on WWE earlier for its camera work, that shot Asuka celebrating like a geek in the background with Beckys rageface in the foreground was great shit.

yeah a pop is a pop, it doesnt have to be cheers.
My point is its a thin needle to thread getting the crowd OUTRAGED AT THIS MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE and then ALSO CHEER FOR THE NEW BABYFACE CHAMP. Of course they maybe I guess expected Ronda to be cheered and for this be a Braun Strowman situation... Seriously this was TLC: 12 ways to avoid putting over a babyface.

They atleast suspected people wouldn't like Becky getting screwed, so they've been trying to work Asuka fans into a fervor again to try and mitigate that. The Asuka buildup/stuff like the beatdown were their attempts to help that. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR! Get Paid! ... Copied to Clipboard!

did we just have someone block someone else due to the reception Asuka was intended to get in her title win No. Rock's just been going out of his way to argue with people a lot lately and it was already getting super annoying. Like, the other day we were arguing because I said WWE was trying to push Asuka as a bigger face than Becky and that WWE saw Becky more as a tweener at most, and Rock for some reason started an argument over it saying I was wrong and it was in the cards for Becky to be the mega star face and all that So then tonight when I reiterate that... Yeah, WWE had been trying to push Asuka to get the reception tonight, Rock goes "Well obviously she got that reaction!" It was just too much, man. Too much. He tries to start fights with certain people over anything. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR! Get Paid! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Eddv posted...My point is its a thin needle to thread getting the crowd OUTRAGED AT THIS MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE and then ALSO CHEER FOR THE NEW BABYFACE CHAMP. Don't take this the wrong way but I basically give 0 shits about that. This was much simpler if you wanted this result to have Charlotte about to win and Ronda screw her and then have Asuka actually defeat Becky so she doesn't look like such a geek. Or else book someone who is actually a heel here like Peyton Royce or pre turn Carmella. I don't think that putting Asuka over Becky at this time is a good idea and obviously neither do they. yet they wanted to get the title off of Becky either way, presumably because Becky is winning the womens rumble and challenging Ronda at mania. The end of match reactions pretty much match that too. Becky clearly incensed at Asuka while Charlotte was just mad in general. I am guessing we get Charlotte and Ronda at the Rumble and Becky bowling over Asuka and getting her win back en route to winning Rumble. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/chXIw06 ...

I'm not actually saying I think it was a good decision or anything. I agree it was questionable and could have been done much better.
I was simply saying WWE thought they needed to boost Asuka leading into this and so it makes more sense now why Asuka got said boost after doing nothing all year, which Rock disagreed with for some reason.

My point is its just wishy washy and its strange to make your baby face win via fluke and expect it to be well liked especially when the people you're putting her over are significantly more popular.
It also just occurred to me that its becoming a strange throughline in Becky's character that triple threats are bullshit. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/chXIw06 ... Copied to Clipboard!
