Never qustioned your rights to dislike something, just think its melodramatic to not start watching a promotion for one woman coming in for a quick program when u can just skip said program n watch the rest. Its a legitimate inquiry

sounds like she will at least be wrestling in Japan in January so I'd expect her to return to another major company shortly after. whether that is aew or wwe or elsewhere who knows!
If it’s not WWE, Sabs isn’t going to watch, no matter who it is. Just who he is.

(Not trying to say that is bad Sabs before you get defensive)

I will say this(and I’m not defending WWE if this is true)

But Becky Lynch was the biggest star in the business at one point. So not giving Sasha the same amount of money that you gave Becky isn’t that unreasonable.

Sasha is younger and is more popular outside of wrestling. I think people in the wrestling bubble over exagerate Becky's mainstream popularity a tiny bit. I say they are close to the same level. Sasha is absolutely more popular in every metric than Charlotte, I don't think even Charlottes biggest fan would deny that either (I love both Becky and Charlotte so I dont want this to come off as me trashing either)

I have a really hard time believing Hunter saw Sasha like that. You’re telling me a 30 year old with charisma out the asshole can’t carry the company and has peaked? What a load of crap :lol Sasha is literally the type of personality that can go out and do press, do commercials, etc. I mean she already had a role in The Mandalorian which was huge.

If I had to personally choose anyone who’d be the face of the division it’d be Sasha. I don’t believe this dirt sheet nonsense.

fwiw it doesn't implicitly say Sasha and says management. but also, I think you have to take this as typical WWE bullshit they've done like with Bray. some of that corporate structure is hard to get out of ppl. Also I think people have to really stop treating Hunter like some perfect saint-like entity that was an innocent bystander during the Vince era. not saying he's the same but I feel people are really setting themselves up for a rude awakening that a shit leopard (wwe) doesn't change it's spots.

Idk I just remember reading somewhere that Hunter was always super high on Sasha. And yes I do hold Hunter in a much higher light than Vince because he’s actually fucking lucid :lol

Vince would literally have opinions on wrestlers no one else would have and would have huge changes of heart for no reason lmao. He literally had Shayna win the entire elimination chamber in like 5 minutes and then lose to Becky at Mania. Wtf?

I mean she is notoriously prone to both injury and "hiatuses" when things go wrong. I get the feeling this is more than just WWE smearing someone they've lost

Reminds me a lot of 90s Shawn Michaels in a way
