Interesting opinions.

I felt her first run was corny, try hard, all the things listed in the OP. She also didn't understand match pacing or proper selling.

But I felt her 2nd heel run, or at least during 2022 era was pretty decent and she had some good matches.

Her first match was perfect. Planned and executed by solid workers like Angle and HHH. But then she went full time and had to work nightly with garbage like Bliss and Nia Jax. And there lies the problem. She should have never been full time

Her presentation sucked after her first cameo. He facial work was awful, she couldn't keep character, she hated the job and it was clear. It wasn't bad promos or anything

Think her problem was she defaulted to her MMA instincts and the WWE audience is different than the UFC audience. She really could have benefits with Heyman as her Manager IMO to at least cover up her promo abilities.

Pairing Heyman with people doesn't always work. Cesaro. I don't think he matches with Ronda

Also if we're keepin it a buck here, she came with some pre-loaded hate on this site cause of the cac media speculating that she could take Floyd in the octagon and trying to say she's bigger than Serena Williams

Maybe... but I would say on here of late it's pretty much the people who jump ship from one promotion to another. All of a sudden Punk is hated and then loved again and then hated again or all of a sudden Cody sucks ass or the multitude of Mercedes hate threads etc..

I think we appreciate the presentation of one company over another (like, individual, poster x prefers company A's presentation over company B's)

Like, I loved Pentagon Jr in lucha underground, was hohum the bit I saw on AAA clips and randomly on tv, but love everything about him so far on WWE.

Cody sucked ass in NJPW, and was better but bad in aew. He's awesome this run in WWE.

Swerve is much better in aew than nxt (other than that terrible hardcore shyt he does)

She clearly didnt respect the business. Brock really don’t either but he’s passionate about his individual contributions within it
I don’t know why you go through all that training to be in wrestling if you don’t respect it. Brock has to love the business to have been around for so long. I think his gimmick is he doesn’t care but you can’t do this for so long and not like it, I don’t care what anyone says

Her not liking the job was indicative of how she is just not easy to get along with. She probably is just difficult and has an issue with everyone.

If nothing else, she gave it a shot. The complaint when she came (per IWC standard) was that she was just gonna show up when she felt like it and was just using it as a cash grab- as if the wrestling business itself is not a cash grab... but she showed up every week. She at least seemed committed to performing and improving at first. But by the time that next Mania rolled around, it seemed like she was over it.
