1. Sasha Banks is overrated af (just my personal opinion)

2. Shayna Baszler is the best women's wrestler on the roster and has been criminally underused

3. Trick Williams is going to have a bigger future than Carmelo Hayes.

4. Retribution had potential even after debut but not after reveal of slapjack

Those first two are definitely unpopular with me.

And I actually think Retribution had potential even after that because making Ali the leader could have elevated him, but they squandered it.

Sasha Banks is an interesting case. I think her impact on the product is definitely a bit overrated. I think there are a lot of people who think if she shows up in AEW that'll be the massive ratings boom. As good as she is, I don't think she has the value though.

Yeah I've just been trying to straight up ignore these types of comments for this reason lol bc there's usually no real logic past "I like this guy and want him to win" (which is fine) so best to just leave it at that than have them try and jump through hoops to show why said person should FACTUALLY win
:bosque Legit me the other night when I wanted Sammy to win. I had no reason other than I like him more. When I knew he shouldn’t actually win.

AJ Lee would be nowhere near the best women's wrestler or talker in WWE if she were around today, even at her peak. She'd be in the same sort of position as Natalya, in that she stood out during the Diva hell but is rapidly overshadowed by better actual wrestlers

But he definitely should be winning at least 98% of those matches.

You and I have never disagreed more.

Especially on the mic. Not many women even today particularly excel in that area. AJ though dropped bombs.

i think even being on the same level as Natalya is generous.

I barely watched n yea lol at this AJ Lee slander. Aj lee, paige and the 4 horsewomen are the reason women main evented and mainstreamed american female wrestling. Also Natalya never excelled at anything, sure she's a nice lady but to act like Lee was inferior to her at anything is a strange take to me

Since we’re on the subject…

I think Paige/Saraya gets too much credit for the Women’s Revolution
