Her Rumble elimination avoidance spot was dumb :yeshrug:

Wrestling is about contrivance though. Because as Alvarez and co. were saying... you really can just avoid being eliminated by hopping on one foot. Making a bridge across out of the announcer's table was a thing, I guess, but it looks a lot less impressive considering Kofi jumped from table to stairs one year, Morrison did the same wall-cling just better years back... it's not Naomi's fault they're running out of ideas but feel like they have to do one of those moments every year. That being said, it was a stupid fukking spot and wasted time :manny:

I'm not gonna cape for a spot I woulda found idiotic if they'd had Kofi do it, if they'd had Morrison do it, if they'd had Bianca do it... the only way that spot wasn't going to die was if someone with freakish jumping skills like Tez did the cling, climbed onto the barricade and just flat-foot long-jumped from barricade to apron. Otherwise it was gonna be trash, because they overdo these spots every fukking year.

fukking incel behavior. These kinda dudes know that they are not on her level and do basement level hot takes to try to devalue her. fukk them.
There's a reason they went for her instead of the people who produced the match and planned the spots :mjpls:

where these people been though? naomi literally been on TV for a decade.

:gucci:
It didn't count until she had the fro weave, I guess.

Hopefully Mandy had to sit behind Naomi's ass on the flight, too, so she had to see the fro over the seatback and give her No Way Jose flashbacks.

I don’t think anybody would’ve had a problem with it had she not been instantly eliminated after she did it. I was watching and just went
:gucci::martin::beli:” after she was eliminated

But that's how they always do that shyt, man.
It was the major complaint about Kofi for years with them - he'll do some crazy shyt like handstand-walk around part of the ring to the steps... and be out 1-2 people later all for nothing. No one ever gets those spots and then goes on to win, which is just... nonsensical.

Could you imagine any other media like this - someone goes through their ridiculous anime desperation power-up, where strength they never thought they had appears and brings them back from the brink of defeat... and then they get punched in the face right after and lose anyway. Where they do that at? Nowhere but wrestling :what:
Just once, someone who can do these elimination avoidance spots needs to, ya know... win a fukking battle royale. It doesn't even need to be the Rumble. Just... ya know. Once, it should lead to the winner, so the spots mean something.

The WWE doesn’t know a single thing about moderation :laff::laff:And haven’t for a long time

They have a gem and a star on their hands, but since it’s something they’re not directly creating, expect any type of momentum to be extinguished and passed on to somebody else (Alexa, Dana, etc)
Naomi's whole glow could've been big, but since it wasn't a white woman who came up with it they didn't push it. Bianca & Naomi were the only things people were talking about from the rumble with Drew coming in at #3, but all Vince cares about is Charles being the focal point for the women.

You think they really care about that rumble spot? I've seen too many cac neckbeards have this vitriol against black wrestlers who do shyt their favorite cac star can't do.

Becky is the focal point for the women. Not Charlotte. The glow thing was limited. EST has the juice. Better look. Better athlete, way better wrestler. I saying it now. She will be champion before 2020 ends.

How can you say it was limited when they never actually pushed it? You say Becky is the focal point not Charles, yet Charles keeps finding herself in main events and title matches. Finally you can have more than 1 black wrestler at a time, and Naomi is a better wrestler than Bianca right now so miss me with that bullshyt. I love Bianca and want her to be the top star on Smackdown one day, but she needs a little more seasoning before that happens. If Rhea has another poor outing at Takeover then they may take the strap off of her sooner rather than later.
