Carmella needs to win this match? She’s been booked as a joke because she IS a joke. Should’ve never won MITB or had a successful cash-in. If you really want fans to continue to take the women’s division more seriously, then Carmella should tap to Charlotte in a 3-5min squash & become an eye candy valet/“manager” ... that is, if WWE MUST employ this woman. The only way she ever draws a dime is if she makes Paige-esque videos. She’s using up in-ring time that could belong to Asuka, Sasha, Baylee, etc. Shit, even Natalya Neidfart. (Maybe an ideal gimmick for Carmella)

The only reason she seems like a joke is because she's been booked that way.. She's one of the more developed characters in the women's division.. Charlotte can afford to lose, she's the biggest star in the women's division and that's not changing... Charlotte squashing Carmella will do nothing but hurt the division when they have the opportunity to create a star with Carmella.. They need more stars besides Charlotte, Asuka and Bliss.

A fair point...but...can't the WWE make someone else with actual
in-ring skills into a "Star" like say Becky Lynch or Ruby Riott?

I mean I wouldn't have so much of a problem with Carmella...but
her win/loss record is so pathetic. She's never even won a singles
match on pay per view before.

Wait a minute...

Does anyone else think Carmella is just Summer Rae 2.0 or is that just me?

Blonde, thin, annoying voice, some dance moves, questionable ring skills...

No wonder Summer was let go...they already had Carmella.

No wonder Summer was let go...they had Carmella to replace her.

Becky Lynch would be perfect. They should've ran with her push when she became the #1st ever Smackdown Women's Champion.. but then Alexa Bliss happened and derailed her push completely.. Becky can work good matches, cut decent promos and has a great look.. Her ring attire is very awkward though, but that's nothing.

I don't understand why they won't do anything with her. Maybe she has backstage heat with somebody.

I see the comparisons between Carmella/Summer as you mentioned, but Carmella is slightly better than Summer Rae.. Summer seemed completely useless. Carmella can carry an in-ring segment by herself at least.

These managers in NXT like Carmella and Alexa Bliss seem to be a step behind everyone else when it comes to in-ring skill.. NXT really helps people improve in the ring and they didn't have that much experience to get better. Plus, no indy experience either. No wonder they suck in the ring.. Now they have to worry about improving on the main roster which is probably so much more difficult.

Carmella's crowd reactions are undeniable.
Yeah they are...I'm denying them...she hardly ever gets any reaction...
and she's never really been given a strong reaction besides her cash in...
and that's because it was a cash in.

Oh...& the MitB bullshit was all the Blob Fish...so don't throw that at me.

then you wouldn't want to see her get beat up in the first place.
So...you're telling me what I would want to see?

Piss off...

I don't need someone acting like a moron to
want to see them eat a pin in the ring.

Why not have Carmella be vicious & violent
& attack Charlotte like she did with Nikki Bella?

I'd rather see that than have to hit the mute or skip
button as Carmella is being paraded around like the
World's hottest idiot.

Don't tell me what I would or would not want to see.

You don't know me well enough to do that.

I thought she would have no story and get no crowd reaction. She has a story and a crowd reaction.
Again...I think we are watching a different show...but
that's cool. Enjoy those "reactions" Carmella is getting.

Becky Lynch would be perfect. They should've ran with her push when she became the #1st ever Smackdown Women's Champion.. but then Alexa Bliss happened and derailed her push completely.. Becky can work good matches, cut decent promos and has a great look.. Her ring attire is very awkward though, but that's nothing.

I don't understand why they won't do anything with her. Maybe she has backstage heat with somebody.
Maybe its because she's Irish?

Seriously though...have Becky join SAni†Y, turn heel,
go "mad" & start snapping arms like Pentagon Jr.

I see the comparisons between Carmella/Summer as you mentioned, but Carmella is slightly better than Summer Rae.. Summer seemed completely useless. Carmella can carry an in-ring segment by herself at least.
Well...I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Bingo! And it shouldn't ever come to that.

I just hope this don't turn into Char vs Sasha Round 2...
Especially when Charlotte could be having title matches with Asuka, Becky or Naomi...

Honestly...as beautiful as they are...the Heels on SDL are kind of lacking in the
wrestling department.

They are all "Pretty Girls" apart from Sonya...

:emoji_thinking:

I'd like to see Charlotte vs. Sonya...

Char vs just about anyone else would be better in my book.

I disagree with both your points...
But...I won't hold that against you.

Nice Avatar by the way...
I mean I would've rather had her cash in for a match not just a pin and win.. I was happy for her but a bit disappointed that they wanted her to capture her first main roster title like that

The problem is Carmella has been booked so poorly that
her pinning basically anyone else on the roster in a clean
1 on 1 match just wouldn't work.

Like I keep pointing out...Carmella has won only 6 televised
singles matches in the last 16 months...

3 were against jobbers...which she won thanks to her pet Blobfish...
1 was against Naomi...again thanks to the Blobfish...
1 was a clean 1 on 1 victory against Naomi...Wow!
&
Of course her cash in was number 6...

Her win/loss record is terrible..and its the booking teams fault.

They could have had Carmella score clean wins over Tamina,
Lana, Natalya, Sarah Logan, Ruby Riott, Liv Morgan & Becky
Lynch over a space of 2 to 3 months to at least build her up
a little bit & give her some momentum...but they didn't do that.

She pinned Becky Lynch in a tag match at Fastlane & then
pinned Naomi on SDL...and that was it...and then...she cashed
in after the IIconics basically did all the work for her.

My main gripe is that we now have 4 incredibly talented women
on SDL...Charlotte, Becky, Asuka & Naomi...and I'm sure any
combination of those 4 women would provide an exciting &
high quality title match...but now the WWE is using this time
to push Carmella?

Frankly...its fucking awful timing.

I want the women's division to put on the best possible title matches
they can...and with Carmella & Nia Jax as Champions...we won't be
seeing any high quality title matches any time soon.

Sure maybe Charlotte vs. Carmella will be great...but I'm not holding
my breath...and watching Nia Jax vs. Alexa Bliss Mk.II will most likely
be another painful sit...unless they let Nia squash the little bully in 2
minutes....but I doubt that will happen...because Alexa Bliss has been
protected better than any other woman on the roster.

Did you know it took Charlotte longer to defeated Alexa Bliss than it
did for her to defeat Asuka...

Did you know Nia Jax defeated Sasha Banks in 5 minutes...but it took
her 10 minutes to defeat Alexa Bliss...

Its a fucking joke...

Put the SDL title on Charlotte, Asuka or Becky...
&
Put the RAW title on Sasha, Ruby or Ember...

And let the Championships mean more than just
being a sparkling prop.

Of course that's just what I want to see.
