Ciampa.
:blessed:

No theme
No merch
Doesn't pander to the crowd to be a 'cool heel'

Legit heel.

Ciampa right now is Top 3 in the company. He is the only one in the company who can rock the no theme walkout right now.

Also, WWE finally got the crowd reaction shots right after his title win. Mostly cause the title change was that unexpected, but the no theme music set that off. It was perfect. Great match

Lacey Evans is actually pretty good might be their best blonde but I'm always iffy on wrestlers having knockout finishes. It always seems anti climactic like why not try to do that from beginning? Anyway I like the name at least but the Women's Right is going to have to be extra protected.

Easily the best blonde they have which means that she won't get push. :laugh:

I didn't think she had it in her tbh. I remember watching her during the Mae Young Classic crying about how she had to spend time away from her new child and I couldn't help but feel like she wouldn't last long but she's still here and looks legit. They will definitely try with her though the woman I'm worried about is Bianca like I said in another thread her future is WWE struggling to come up with booking solutions for how a woman who noticeably stronger and faster than the other women isn't the champion.

Yeah she surprised me as well. I didn't hint she had it in her.

As for Bianca, we will see. Hopefully she gets a Naomi like push in the main roster.

She's grown on me a lot. She's got a great heel look, good heel moveset aswell - cool looking but not cool enough to make you want to root for her.

Came out of the best angle they had on top. He’s the hottest heel acknowledged...Dream is on the back burner cuz of his youth :mjpls:

Shame too cuz they could’ve revisited his feud with aleister black

They want the belt to eventually go to the top guy so they threw it into the Gargano feud. I think its the right move.

I think it's obvious that Black is getting called up after SS. My guess is Ciampa retains but still feuds with Gargano over the title with Johnny winning it at War Games.
