Let's talk business...let's see. Sloppy? Nah...some of the newer girls aren't as refined as those with great reputations and proved track records like Athena, Kana, MsChif, Hamada, Lady Destroyer, Melissa, Madison Eagles, Jessie Mckay, etc.
What do you mean NAH? I've seen yardtards who are more coordinated in the ring and have a better sense of psychology than a good majority of SHIMMER's roster. I'll give you this, though. You brought up some good points with Melissa, Madison, Jessie, and Hiroyo, but c'mon with the rest of them.
Athena: I'm going to be straight with you. I'm not going to judge wrestlers I don't know. Haven't seen Athena, so I'll just give you the benefit of the doubt.
Kana: Kana was good. Keyword 'was'. Her work right now doesn't compare to the shoot style stuff she was pulling out years back during her early days in WAVE. Even then her work got gradually worse and worse as time went on. Botches were consistent, she was constantly injuring other workers (one who comes to mind is Shu Shibutani. Girl had to miss her friend, Fuuka's retirement show because of how reckless Kana was as a worker

), and she didn't make any effort to slow down. Now since she's been blackballed from a lot of places, she's mostly been phoning it in, and her stuff's been lazy with her American appearances being no different.
MsChif: ...Man, you could show me matches, go on and on breaking down everything about her that makes her "special", run the gamut, try to sell me on this bytch. Nothing you'll ever say will convince me this walking Botchamania segment is good. She's perhaps the ONLY worker Melissa's ever made look bad.
Hamada: Again, like Kana she WAS good. Nowadays? I'd say decent at best. Once she started packing the pounds, she was never the same wrestler again which is a damn shame since she used to be one of the best around the early 2000's.
But they get there pretty much..the progression is MUCH, MUCH better than what you see in the E. Proof? Look at Kelly Kelly and Eve Torres. They were there for years and didn't even have the ability to put on two star matches. A complete embarrassment to the business and the industry as a whole really. This girl in NXT named Paige? She's Britani Knight..got over big by the end of her Shimmer run but then again she apparently gets over no matter where she goes and she's only 20 fukking years old.
Much better? Listen, you're telling me stuff I already know when it comes to the divas. I'm not going to defend them because that
wasn't the point of my post. My point was they're no better or worse, and I'll even go as far as saying they're similar sometimes with how they work. The only difference is when you're watching SHIMMER, you're getting 10-15 excruciating minutes instead of the usual 3-5. As for Paige? shyt, good for her. Her being better than most doesn't make SHIMMER 'good' as I pointed out with Kong and Del Rey.
Portia Perez's strength is on the mic. She tore open Serena pretty good when she clowned the Diva's division and her shaving her head for money and for less integrity. Her partner Nicole Matthews, who has NO ASS whatsoever and is pale AS fukk, is the true ring talent. She could go with any female you can think of in any promotion..Japan, the States, Mexico, or Europe.
Yeah, but when you're trying to build a heel who you'd expect to feud with your top talent, I'd expect someone who's strong on the mic and in the ring which Portia is not. How is comparing her to her superior tag partner helping you with your argument? Or bringing up how bad she looks?
That's a goofy guy but I don't see those types as regulars. They must be those desperate Johnny types that be going to their little dinner get togethers in the Chicago area. More power to them for being simps and not getting ANYWHERE near a SNIFF of those panties. Let the idiots dream and play themselves. I see it enough on Amazon anyway.
If a simp wants to be stupid, let them run it. Sounds absurd and you shake your head but they're dumb. Mickie was out there wanting nyggas to pay 3k or some shyt and not wanting you to fukk her at all. She was completely out of her mind
Well, damn. Sorry that I feel the need to judge women who don't respect themselves. And again, you can keep bringing up mainstream female wrestlers, but that's not going to help you since my post was never meant to defend them.
Kong was a special talent but Rebecca Knox was as good, if not better, than Del Ray. Lacey was always her equal. Everyone knows Melissa can carry anyone to something decent. Del Ray fell off for awhile as Champion and when she went over Kong by DQ in that title match, they turned on her heavily two shows later in a str8 face off with Melissa in that tag match. She couldn't even handle it. It was kind of sad really.
...You...you lost me here.
And you're going to judge Del Rey's ability as a wrestler based on how a bunch of perverted neckbeards reacted to her how she beat Kong?
Breh, at least she got that momentum back, and become much more interesting when she repackaged herself as that Bull Nakano throwback. fukk what a bunch of simps think. Still doesn't change the fact Sara Del Rey was above and beyond a better wrestler than half of SHIMMER.
Overall...don't play yourself and act like some of the bytches you see on the E didn't come from Shimmer and haven't went through them. When Serena was on television, all you nyggas were propping her to no end. She got noticed because she stood out in Shimmer. Nattie is the same way. You think a LOSER like Gail Kim was gonna come in and make an impact after that run in TNA where she was carried by Kong? Of course not. She's lazy...she botches like no one's business and has NO fukking speaking ability. An Asian American chick from Candada in her 20s with no speaking ability by now? EXTREMELY sad.
Look above, homie. You're not going to accomplish anything by putting words in my mouth here, 'cause not once in my post did I ever say anything positive about the divas division. Like I said about Paige, if Serena and Nattie are better than most, good for fukking them, but it still doesn't change the fact that SHIMMER is a terrible promotion that tries way too hard to be 90's AJW. You're never going to recreate the same magic workers like Manami Toyota and Akira Hokuto had, and you're never going to get close to it with the women Prazak keeps booking. But that's your preference I guess.
