Makes me wonder what it is you want, if a dominant champion and a 50/50 division are both "problems".
Not trying to knock your post or be an asshole, but wonder what your point is.
Anyway I reckon it's another girl they can save until the episode after Mania to beef up that show, but with Mania looking pretty light on the mark-out moments category, this would certainly be a benefit to a card. After that, we'll see.
I look at Brock Lesnar, and how he's a detriment to everyone else. No one ever gets to look good, no one (except 50 year olds) gets to go over him, no one gets the rub, and it makes all his matches boring and predictable. Asuka's the same for me. And I cant help but feel if you introduce dominant, never ever loses Asuka to the current SDL environment where all the women look like shit, it'll just make them look even worse. I like what they've done with Nia Jax on Raw, she still looks like a badass, she still actually looks unstoppable, but she has taken a few losses along the way. Thats more entertaining to me, and amazingly I can even say its smart booking from WWE, as opposed to just "lets never ever have this chick lose so she looks like a beast".
Personally, I don't find it silly, 'cause people will need time to adjust when they're in a new environment. So, I guess we can agree to disagree on this one.
As for her booking in NXT, I don't mind it. It's been a while since a women's wrestler has been booked like Asuka, so when someone (Ember Moon, most likely) finally dethrones her, that person's going to get a huge rub and it's going to be a big deal. That's how I look at it anyway.
Can't comment on her main roster booking 'cause it's yet to happen, but you could be right, but you could also be wrong. We'll see.
Its just everything leading up to that one big moment gets boring for me. Yes Ember will look great when she beats her, but in the meantime we've had months of Asuka steamrolling everyone else and establishing that all these other girls suck. And on that, when she's been called up to the Main Roster why should we care about the girls who have been smashed by Asuka repeatedly in recent months?
