A legend putting someone over, and of course it’s someone who doesn’t need the rub.

I'm gonna need you to respect The Queen.

I think that was probably their best, but even still having having good Raw matches doesn't make this one less good.

It does make me less impressed though, which is all I was getting at. Show just hasn't hooked me in much throughout. Still eager to see The Fiend in action.

No thanks. The "Queen' should respect Trish and not claim she wasn't a real athlete.

I mean I’m just saying Charlotte doesn’t really need it. Glad she won, as I don’t wanna see legends picking up the wins.. but uh idk just feel with everything she’ll have at the end of her career it ain’t needed.

"Kofi Kingston is stupid"

Got it

In 2009 he wasn't wrong. In 2019 Kofi gonna make Orton believe in KofiMania.

I haven't given a shit about this show TBH. Not one match has been good lol. Natalya vs Becky was probably the best match.

Charlotte is washing Trish in every athletic competition known to man, we all know it.

She is hands down, far and away, bar none the greatest women's wrestler in WWE history.

But even so, I actually do get the claim that someone else coulda used that spot. They just didn't have time to get anyone else (other than maybe Alexa) into that spot unfortunately.

So now the US Title wasn't even good?

That's your opinion and you're welcome to it. I respectfully disagree, though. Definitely top 10, however.

My body was so ready for Alexa and Trish. I'm a sad boy now.

Man, we always talk about WWE trying to build the "new Stone Cold" but you see promos like that one from Orton and you gotta think he's really the closest thing to Austin we've had since The Rattlesnake hung up his boots. That is, in terms of intensity, believability and overall badassery. Of course Punk is a little closer from a character standpoint.

I didn't dig it no. Should've gone 25 minutes.

TBH the only reason Kofi is champion right now is because Brock decided to cash in on Seth.

I'd love to hear who you rank above her. The only woman I might allow over her is Asuka. Mayyyyyyyybe Sasha. Even so, Charlotte's accolades and involvement in so many groundbreaking women's moments put her comfortably above them.

I've always thought WWE originally wanted Orton to be the new Rock and Cena the new Austin and then switched when they realized Orton matched Austin's intensity. Right around 2007-2009 they both drastically shifted up their characters.

On top of that, I always thought once Orton became The Viper he was WWE's produced next Austin, nut Punk was the organic one. I'm fine with having both, though because both were equally good and equally worthy of it. I'm sad nether got a match with Austin.
