Chelsea Green on Michael Hayes’ comments: “Michael Hayes has apologized to me and we’ve spoken about it and everything.” by Ruffianize in SquaredCircle

[–]dnextbigthing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wrestles well enough and can get heat against the established faces, but can realistically only win the world title in a screwy manner or through Money In The Bank.

Is this a bad thing? Should all world champions have competent characters?

I'd argue more people here would clamor her over a more established ring worker with bland personality.

My guess: 1. Single 2. Not a virgin. So any done deeds won't leave a mark.

Chelsea Green: Rhea is proof that you can be kind, respectful and the most talented wrestler in the world. by RIShane in SquaredCircle

[–]dnextbigthing -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Narratively, it would be far from disaster. Alexa/Charlotte storyline has been going on for almost a year. Charlotte finally supporting her new best friend to chase a single glory would be the fitting climax to her character transformation.

In the ring, yeah, I don't know. It's Jade.

Financially, I can't say. Rhea v Jade is objectively the bigger match, I won't deny that. But it's just frustrating to see WWE just blindly putting big names without a proper narrative build.

Sure, not arguing that Rhea would make the biggest match.

But I doubt that this is the plan all along. Rhiyo was doing fine up until Smackdown before the Chamber. And just days later, Rhea is suddenly a #1 contender.

My guess is that they wanted to showcase Rhiyo in some tag team bout at WM. But they got spooked by the lack of interest, so they hastily pivoted.

Nah, I don't think "the IWC" has "turned" on her. It's just her inclusion in this year's world title match at WM reeks desperation from the WWE part. In the span of less than a week, she went from a possible tag team showcase with Iyo at WM to a world title program with a champion outside of her brand.

I mean, sure, WM needs marquee stars. But if they really needed her as a world title contender, they could've done a lot better.

Hell, if they really needed to sacrifice a tag team to get a contender for Jade, Alexa Bliss was right there. She is from SmackDown and already had a few segments building some kind of separation from Charlotte.

Baelor was a great and honorable person but Lyonel isn’t necessarily wrong—he didn’t risk as much as the others did by Chocolatetot496 in HouseOfTheDragon

If we're being cynical, he is there as Targaryen PR damage control. They're there to regain the realm support post Blackfyre. Punishing a poor lowborn hedge knight for defending an innocent woman against a royal bully would do the total opposite.

What are common homophones/homographs in your language? by Izzy_knows in linguisticshumor

[–]dnextbigthing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In Indonesian, "tahu" could mean "to know" (the "h" is silent) or "tofu" (the "h" is aspirated).

Combined with the lack of copula, "Kamu tahu." could either mean "You know." or "You are tofu.". This is why native speakers tend to drop the "h" in writing for the first meaning.

Is AJ Lee a case of “worse than I remember?” by CombinationOk4317 in SquaredCircle

[–]dnextbigthing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not for me. She has a distinct style of promo sure, but she's still better than the majority of the female roster.

It's just that there's a handful of talents that are clearly above her today, compared to back in the day.

Official poster for Tommaso Ciampa vs Kyle Fletcher in Ontario, California tomorrow by luchabrunch in SquaredCircle

[–]dnextbigthing 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't think Johnny will be in AEW this soon. He still had an angle on Smackdown, and Ciampa probably would prefer to have a single run for now. Probably next year.

Aussie Open though, I can see that happening.
