Why not? Because she isn't some badass who is gonna destroy everyone? Bullshit she's getting over because she has a character.

She's a heel, who complains all the time about everything. That's more character development than we can say for the other women who HHH brought back.
She can be a Jillian Hall type of character without the singing

not everyone needs to be a badass asskicker or a super genius villain to be successful in wrestling. also, can only be a few world champions so carving out a place in the mid and lower card is more than fine. in fact 95% of wrestlers will never be world champion. can still be over and rich.

Exactly. She's not gonna be a perennial main event performer. But I really can't wait for when she Karens her way into a Championship match at a PLE.

And the eventual time when the manager has enough and puts her in her place will be awesome.

Either way, still light years ahead of what Tegan Nox, Emma, and even Candice LeRae are doing (nothing but wrestling random matches). And it's arguable she's doing more than Michin Mia Yim and Scarlett, and Valhalla/Sarah Logan.

They could easily use this gimmick as a catalyst to turn her crazy into a version of the hot mess stuff too

Which turned into a championship run for her.. but Sabs doesn’t see it so it’s a moot point guys

Usually I would say Impact championship doesn't always translate, but I have been saying it a lot lately, WWE and Impact have a lot in common when in comes to out there character work. It could work here too if there ever decide to get away from the more super jacked formula of their female champions (on the main roster). which they have done in the past, like Alexa etc

Chelsea is very entertaining so far. She's been more interesting in three weeks than girls like Shitzi, Liv or even Bianca have been in a year.

Love her new theme too

Man the Cody/Paul segment :done

I don't think we need to be crapping on the other ladies to praise Chelsea's character work. I do think she will be better received than some of the new girls they brought back but I also don't think it means those others girls suck

Pretty fun main event, just a shame Becky never seems to get any elevation for her Manhandle Slam. Maybe she should stick to her submission move
