People were really comparing Becky to Stone Cold. Austin never needed the belt to be over.
Looking back it was so cringe people legit made that comparison lmao
I'm still bothered by what happened with Bianca last night

That doesn't even make sense. You have people on the record like Austin and Punk who sold more merch than Becky did, say that turning heel was fun but they made less on merch.
Cena's main reason for never turning was because he sold so much merch. Reigns probably still sold more as a face who was getting booed, more than he does as a heel. She probably did it because she realized what a dumb idea it was and it'd save their booking mistake.

SWEEEEEEEEEETNESS!
Yeah and this isnt even a heel turn. A lot of brehs said this long before she leftWord. Becky was corny as fukk just a couple weeks into her "The Man" run too

Sean Waltman Criticizes WWE For How They Handled Pulling Sasha Banks From SummerSlam
“I understand the predicament. There’s just an old way of thinking that took over here, and I understand that, but it was the wrong thing to do,” Waltman said. “There’s an old saying, ‘If you’re going to have a replacement, the replacement needs to be of equal or greater value.’ For instance, I was in a really top match on all the house shows vs. Razor after I turned heel, but then they said Scott failed a drug test that was six months old, and all of a sudden, Scott’s suspended. They didn’t announce that Scott wasn’t going to be at the shows, which is kind of like this situation.
“When they announced that he wasn’t going to be there, the people booed because they wanted to see him, but then the bagpipes played, and out comes Roddy [Piper], and the place went nuts. And we beat the sh*t out of each other. Anyway, we had great matches. The people were happy, and here’s the key part, though, we had a great match. You can’t do that… they did it, obviously. But I just don’t think they realize how bad it was. I know there’s probably no great choice, but that’s not the one to make.”
“Bianca is on her way to being a MEGA star, and a lot of people are really emotionally invested in her. You can’t do that to people in this day and age,” Waltman pointed out. “You used to be able to do it. That’s why I was saying that was the old mentality, but everyone knows what’s going on. The fan base is incredibly educated, and WWE, I’ve heard them compare themselves to Marvel. Marvel, when it comes to fan service, they’re amazing. This ain’t it.
“You can’t sh*t on a huge portion of your fan base like that. I’m a huge Becky Lynch fan, really big. I was so happy with her run and when she got the bloody nose, cut the promo and all that sh*t, and I’m still a big fan. This did her no favors. It was just unbelievable. Bianca, she’s a thoroughbred. It’s just totally unbelievable that she would get beat that quick by anybody in that f*cking roster. MAYBE Nia [Jax].”

This dude is hilarious.
Looking back,
Wasn't it the season premiere of Smackdown and the 20 Anniversary show that Brock squashed Kofi?
Fox was pushing that pretty hard and I feel like Fox wanted Brock as champ and so wwe made that happen and squashed a 6 month champ to make Brock look dominant. Unfortunately they did it wrong.

Bianca Belair then mentioned when she found out that she’d be facing Lynch at The Biggest Party Of The Summer and couldn’t overemphasise how late a call that was:
“It was pretty much very, very, very, very, very last minute. Pretty much when I was in the ring up – until the time that I went out [to the ring]. Very late call, very late moment, everything, all the emotions that you saw in my face during the match at SummerSlam, were real emotions, shock. Kind of just like, ‘Wow, this is happening. Ok, let’s go with it and just be great at what you do.’ So it was a very, very last minute call.”
