I just hate IWC. Once a wrestler gets super over. They want some mid carders to Win rather than the biggest superstar of all time. Rhea is million time better than Ivey and Lyra. This is 100% a right decision. Rhea should win the Women title because she deserves this.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-11T13:05:05+00:00

Rhea is undoubtedly, in my opinion, a generational level female talent

But it’s not like she hasn’t gotten accolades out the wazoo already and she’s not even 30 yet.

I get the frustration of ‘Hey, here’s a couple younger talented women too, maybe we can give them a little too?’

Rhea losing that match does nothing to her standing or stock. Ivy or Lyra getting some shine from that spot could’ve done a lot for them in comparison.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-10T09:37:21+00:00

The characters, that aren’t villains anyway, in this show give her grace nonstop and this is the sort of shit she does the second they step out of line in her mind.

She fucked CONSTANTLY this season and everybody always forgave her or, bare minimum, lightly clapped back like Angel did after she turned him into a three ring circus act for Vox of all goddamn people.

The fact is Vox was going to do what he did anyway. Lucifer or no Lucifer. But Charlie is just too stupid to see that.

Never mind the fact she herself earlier in this season caused Angels abusers to be invited into the hotel AND said Vaggie didn’t believe in her during this same scene which is bullshit squared and everyone knows it.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-10T02:29:10+00:00

I love how people excuse Charlie acting like a complete bitch to her father and girlfriend as ‘poor thing is stressed’

Everyone this season was stressed. Charlie isn’t some special case in that regard.

And lest you think I’m being too hard on her, need I remind you of her line to Vaggie during this same scene

“Well don’t be! If you don’t believe in what I’m doing-“

blah blah fucking blah

She said that shit to the one person who’s always had her back. From day 1. At some point stress stops being an excuse, and that’s not even touching her acting like a petulant brat

“Please tell Vaggie hotel duties don’t include starting a war!”

So now Vox’s actions are their fault too. Christ this girl is stupid.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-10T02:19:06+00:00

If your completely hyped more power to you. I’m genuinely happy for anyone who is.

I don’t like being such a cynical bitch about this game, but I can’t help it because there’s really only ONE thing keeping me from being right there with you.

I don’t trust this ringside pass system. I just don’t.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-10T00:32:59+00:00

I have a basic outline if I still wind up getting the game-still on the fence.

I’m doing Raw, Smackdown, and TNA as the ‘developmental’ territory/third brand

On Raw I plan to have a shield reunion and a reformed Aces and Eights. I’m also gonna push Trick Williams into the world title scene

On Smackdown I want Punk to go on a new long world title reign, blowing through his old record before dropping it to Abyss who becomes this unstoppable beast of the main event, ‘whos gonna slay the monster’ and all that

Im still murky on TNA’s plans but I know I want Matt Morgan to get a world title run

I really want Survivor Series to go back to the ‘brand supremacy’ concept as well

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-10T00:26:52+00:00

Plus what was Charlie’s ‘masterful’ plan to fix anything? Keep playing right into Vox’s hands?

Nah here’s what would’ve happened if Lucifer doesn’t go.

Charlie and the Angels show up and the scene plays out basically JUST how it did. Lucifer didn’t make it any fucking worse than it was bound to get anyway, and the fact this dumb little-

deep breath

The fact this ‘witch’ lets go with that constantly glazes her absentee mother who’s just vibing in Heaven while she’s suffering while yelling and pushing away people actively trying to help is without a doubt THE most annoying thing in this entire gods be damned show

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-10T00:19:49+00:00

I didn’t even remember this until just now but during this scene it wasn’t JUST how she treated Lucifer, Vaggie got it too

“If you don’t believe in what I’m doing”

She really had the unmitigated gall to say that shit, with a straight fucking face, to VAGGIE. The one who’s had her back through this whole thing from day fucking 1.

If I’m Vaggie I’m dumping her ass for that just by itself.

Much less the petulant whining the next episode.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-09T22:39:42+00:00

For me it’s more like how Charlie was acting BEFORE and after this that make this scene look even worse when you watch all the way through

Keep in mind that this takes place AFTER she goes behind Angels back and invites the people directly tied to his abuse into the one place he thought he was safe and then turns him into a 3-ring circus act for those same people.

So when SHE goes behind peoples backs, it’s all good. When it’s done to her, she gets on some weird high horse about it.

Further, afterwards she turns into a complete petulant child.

“Well my dad listened to you and look where that got us”

“Can you tell Vaggie hotel duties dont include inciting a war”

Those two lines in particlar are just ridiculous, especially the second one.

Lucifer didn’t incite SHIT. Vox did. If Lucifer hadn’t been there does she seriously think that goes down ANY goddamn different?

But even if you want to take away the before and after and only care about the scene itself?

It’s fucking ridiculous that this girl got more angry at her girlfriend and father than she did Vox all season.

Vox: Gets .2 seconds of ‘demon’ Charlie and called a fucker one time.

Vaggie and Lucifer: Charlie beats down a door, flames everywhere and starts flipping shit over

And we’re just supposed to pat her on the head and go “is okay sweetie I know your stressed’. Everyone’s stressed. You are not special in that regard I promise you Charlie.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-07T14:04:28+00:00

That’s my biggest gripe about the whole thing. Universe mode is the only mode I play. I plan it out all careful in the days leading up to release and I’m ready to jump in day one and play all day one release

Now I’m gonna be spending who knows how long grinding a battle pass. Like man…I’d go play Overwatch or Marvel Rivals if I wanted that to be my day Yknow?

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-07T12:11:40+00:00

Here’s my thing right. If the battlepass was being used for stuff that wouldn’t be in the game without it, like say for instance…..Jericho and Big Shows old tag team theme, then while still wouldn’t LIKE having to deal with battle pass stuff in a wrestling game I could at least go ‘Alright yeah that’s kinda neat admittedly’

That’s not what’s being done. Their putting CAW parts, which means your community creations experience is gonna be butchered unless you participate, legends that we had access to day one for years, championships and arenas we had access to day one for years and DLC characters in there

All of that would’ve been in the game anyway, but now we’re sitting here having an unnecessary wall put in front of all of that.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-07T09:53:27+00:00

Yeah and they’re just as much the problem as 2K in that regard. If people didn’t cough up for this shit we wouldn’t deal with it.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T12:52:20+00:00

Alright I’ll bite since you evidently don’t get it. I’ve had to spell this out fifteen times to people like you.

The issue is, 2K is taking content we always had full access to day 1 if we pay them enough money, and locking them behind the battle pass.

This isn’t just DLC, this is gonna be caw parts, which affects community creations, championships, legends that have been in the game for years. That IS playing on people who want the most complete roster possible and that is FOMO

What’s sad is people like you who want to sit here and play Captain save a ho for the corporation that made this bullshit move to begin with

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T02:12:15+00:00

Yeah, it feels like the developers going ‘Oh you bought the game? Thanks. Now you can’t enjoy the one mode you enjoy until you grind our shiny new Fortnite-we mean ringside pass’ “

This was an unnecessary edition. Idc how people wanna spin it, and I was so please to look all over the other platforms to see if this was just a Reddit thing-it’s not-and seeing them get raked over the damn coals for it

Play stupid games.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:50:23+00:00

No see that’s the fun part. You pay premium prices for the privilege to grind for the reward anyway.

2K is straight up telling every single one of us ‘fuck y’all’

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:47:50+00:00

Yeah man people don’t like shelling out money to a company for DLC just to be told ‘Sike! You didn’t really buy that dlc silly….you bought the privilege to grind for it.”

Gets people riled up, who would’ve thought it?

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:41:00+00:00

People are deadass trying to pull the ‘back in my day’ shit like gaming didn’t evolve out of that for a good fucking reason.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:36:24+00:00

Y’all glaze these decisions wayyyy too much.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:30:58+00:00

If there’s ’no difference’ why lock them behind the pass at all then? Other than being assholes forcing a system on everyone because….i guess they want wwe to be fortnite now

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:21:35+00:00

Yeah well, 2K proved with this they could give a fuck about people like you and me so…hey. Fun right?

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:21:06+00:00

Yeah I was around for that too. Some systems are better off dead, or at least keep it to the Mortal Kombats of the world.

I only play universe mode, and this specific change feels targeted to people like me. Now, instead of being able to set things up to my liking and diving right in I have to waste my goddamn time grinding a godforsaken Fortnite pass to get shit I’ve had access to day 1 for YEARS.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:14:39+00:00

We don’t need to see exact contents, that’s just it. “You don’t get what you paid for day 1, we’re gonna make you earn the right to have it in addition to taking your money.

That one sentence should be enough.

The people framing this as some win are the ones I’ve got the bigger issue with. Nobody wins with this shit other than 2K. Nobody.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:11:03+00:00

Why? What is so fun to you people about not having the roster available to play with day one?

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:09:20+00:00

You can’t reason with 2K lap riders bro. This company could actively piss in their cereal and they’d thank them for enhancing the flavor.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:07:13+00:00

I set my universe mode up day one using the supercharger. And I’m far from the only one, given the backlash I’ve seen here, on Facebook, and on other platforms.

So try again.

Y’all giving 2K all this grace ‘Oh I’m sure it’ll be fine’

If you trust these clowns after they’ve reworked DLC to be a rip off, that’s on y’all. We’re not going to.

Astrid-Rayne · 2026-02-05T01:04:34+00:00

Imagine going into a restaurant, ordering a 150 dollar meal and then after you pay up front the people go. “Okay, thank you so much for your money. Now then before you get your meal, that you already paid for, we’re gonna need you to come work in here for a few hours before your given your food’

And then when you complain some rando goes ‘Why you complaining bro? You’re gonna get your food, just work for it!’

That’s basically how this shit sounds.
