You know there won't be a double turn. Becky is a heel for the foreseeable future. She already shyt on the fans. If they let her do some truly diabolical and ultra violent shyt they have a chance. They went all out (initially) to get Austin over. They need to do that for Becky. Some bytches will have to bleed for that.
All they really had to do was have Becky and Charlotte mostly take turns going at Carmela and avoid fighting each other, maybe even have Charlotte save Becky from harm at some point to drive home her loyalty. Then after Carmela used some foreign object to cheat, have Becky get fed up and go grab a chair, slide into the ring. Both Mela and Charlotte and recovering on the ground. Becky walks over to Mela, pauses a sec, then just slides her of the ring w her foot and instead turns around and starts wailing on her best friend Charlotte with the chair. 10, 12 chair shots, spit on her, etc.

Fans would have gotten the idea and gotten behind it much better than this dumb Hogan routine that makes no sense

Why do that when we can hope everyone randomly gets behind the turn? :troll:

Becky is really putting effort into this so it may work but WWE long ago lost the ability to tell compelling and logical stories. Good luck gents.

There were indeed calls for Becky to turn, because there's calls for everyone to heel turn, especially when wwe isnt doing anything with them. People wanted Baeley to turn just because of how much she got buried, but you think she'd actually make a good heel? :no:

Becky has been better than expected, she switched up her whole demeanor. The problem was how they did it. Making Charlotte come out of nowhere and win the belt again, clean, by pinning Becky is classic wwe Hogan/Cena/Reigns booking.

If you want to actually get fans to buy into your heel/face dynamic, you have to present it in a way that actually makes Becky come off as out of line and a bad person instead of making her beatdown into a cathartic experience for how the fans feel. The company is clueless about how to tell a story people can relate to because they have that backward conservative victim mindset.

So now that they botched the turn, they have a few weeks at most to get it on track by having Becky really do terrible things and come off as unlikeable. Tough to accomplish in the wack ass pg era. If they cant do it in a couple weeks they need to cut their losses and pull the trigger on the double turn, otherwise it will damage both women permanently going forward.
CHHHuck's been booked like that for years :mjlol: finally my brother takes off the blinders and smells the rat :banderas:

The justification for turning Becky heel was she is getting "a push" and it would be fresher than a Charlotte turn. This makes no sense and shows how disingenuous "decision" makers are in the company are. Freshness is hardly ever used. I.e. Roman & Sasha should have already turned if this is the case. it's obvious they are making Char the top star instead of letting fans have a say.

They are going to end up back tracking and pretending like it was the plan the whole time

There would still be issues...Becky beat all the females to get the title shot ...compare that to how Charlotte got inserted..it just isn't a good look for Charlotte.

It's a really good idea, but I still think the fans would have popped for Becky, especially since they were in New York which is full of hardcore fans. Becky is one of those people who everyone loves, which is a rarity these days. She could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot someone and the fans will still cheer for her.

But hey, let's see how this goes. :manny:

Nah it's never been that blatantly dumb. Charlotte's never had the crowd turn on her until Summerslam, even when they had her make Asuka tap. But this was almost like they set it up to elicit the exact opposite response from the crowd they allegedly wanted. Makes no sense.

I dont have blinders. I'm not gonna blame Charlotte as shes still the best performer they have imo but this is just inept storytelling.

blew what? the point of this is to cool her off and then turn her back face when her fans dont care anymore
The worst part is this seems to be their business model for any time someone gets over. Turn them, have them act totally out of character, feed them to who Vince likes, then turn them again and do basically nothing with them until the fans lose interest so we can lowball or release them when there’s no fan demand for them.
