Yeah there's a lot of people rating it low and a big part of their reasoning is "Punk should have won". Call it like I see it

yeah thats silly then too lol

might be a bit too early to tell but I think we might also have officially hit the end of the goodwill era from Hunter taking over - the way SC seems to have done a partial 180 and the way media has been covering things seem to have slightly shifted over night. no idea if it will continue tho but i would not be shocked if this was the marker

 

[Comrade Khan]

Tbh we’ve had this conversation before on the pod and I’m 100% in agreement. That doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have a bright future. She’s one of the most perpetually over female talents and will be top half talent for a long time.

oh shes young she def has a bright future

Between Stratton, Jade, Bianca, Cora, Roxanne, Liv…

WWE’s women’s division has a bright future

I feel a lot of people do comparisons between Liv Morgan and WWE-run Jeff Hardy but I feel they're accurate. Never the best worker. Still way over. Willing to do wild shit for the moment. Only sorta world champ material

I can see this on a smaller scale. And I only say smaller scale cause Jeff was over to a level that most will never reach. But it’s not a stretch of a comparison at all

I don’t see it for Roxanne or Cora tbh
Like they’ll be fine maybe

Well part of Jeff’s over was was women being horny for him and well Liv def gets men and women riled up

Fair

My stance on Liv is she shouldn’t be the girl you know in the context of how Cody is the guy but as far as being a main event, I would say she is, but I would say she’s more of a revolving door main event. Like how Mick Foley was in the attitude area he was occasionally sliding in or say the big show. Where the rest of the time they’re an upper midCarder.

I will also say I don’t value being able to put on a banging match as much as other people do because like you usually can get a really good match from lower Cards that you could give a four-star rating to their match, but you really wouldn’t put a world title on them either . For me it’s do they have a good character do the fans care about that character and can she get you to care about her and her struggles and I think Liv checks all those boxes.

I’m super high on those two. I think Cora has a Better Character, and Roxy is a Better plucky baby face.

I've never seen Jeff and Liv compared but dang that makes a lot of sense.

 

[Leon TrotSky]

We should manage our expectations for Cora tbh, she's got no knees now

He still is. It's crazy lol he might b like top 20 most over guy ever . Even after all his fuck ups

Cora is bad on the mic especially as a heel. Roxanne is trying to be a badass now and it’s just not working. As someone who watches NXT every week I can definitely say the hype on both of them should be tempered
