Good for WWE for putting on a good show... Too bad it had to be there.

 

Also read a good comment on Cornettes recently Dynamite review

 

"Jim and Brian's opinions about AEW are slowly turning positive...
It's exposing the Cult of Cornette members who are either E-drones or miserable people in general who just want to hear Jim to shit on everything.....compared to legitimate wrestling fans who listen to him."

I do think about 10% want to hear his honest reviews and respect what he says.

The other 90% are just hatemongers that feed off vitriol. There is a reason why shock jocks exist.

I listen specifically for the clips he puts up for matches that interest me. And I wanna agree with alot of his takes but he has a weird hate for alot of stuff that makes it just too hard. His views on women's wrestling is insanely outdated and his views of any Asian wrestler not built like a fucking Ford truck is straight up racist and I can't see how anyone can view it any other way when he calls every single Asian woman a Japanese school girl. Nigga defining a whole race of woman like his favorite pornhub category

I’ve more or less given up on him reviewing anything involving the women. Especially when he considers Bianca “small.” If it ain’t Charlotte or Rhea he won’t invest a lot of time on it.

Lmfao all them bitches are the same height... Rhea wears boots with huge ass platforms. I think Charlotte may be the actual tallest

So apparently the whole belt tossing nonsense between Charlotte and Becky was unscripted and led to a pretty heated backstage argument between the two (arguing that neither of them wanted to "look weak"), but damn, why is Charlotte suddenly doing all these shoot segments (first being with Nia Jax)? Is she looking to get fired so she can be with Andrade?

 

And maaaaan are we back with Cody vs. Malakai again? Give it a fuckin rest. Even AA's newfound popularity is being hindered by getting back with Cody.

Charlotte has a history of being pissy when things don't go according to plan.

The details are actually in favor of Charlotte. She wanted to drop the title to Bianca and thinks it would do more for her. It seems like our feelings towards wwe fearing failure leading to alot of Charlotte runs are accurate. It always feels like she wants to do what's best for the division but wwe doesn't and wants her to carry because they have no faith in others.

Its like I get where Charlotte is comin from with issues with creative cuz they ARE terrible but you're still supposed to keep it professional, can't just go into business for yourself when things don't go your way. She put Becky and Sonya in an awkward spot on live TV

Whenever Cornette praises something, especially all the recent AEW praise, I definitely sit up and pay attention because he's been shitting on them for so long that when he has mostly good things to say, it must really be good shit, pal.  

See that’s a sane way to see at it. 
Not immediately jump to “Jim started getting cheques from Tony” haha

 

Those people expose themselves as WWE cultists.

Both of you are right.

And I think this is a lot of built up frustration from shitty booking.

Some stans feel that Charlotte has no right to complain because she's always at the top, but if what maxx said is true, then it makes sense.

This is a fake sport anyway, unless you are Roman (uber pushed for half a decade), you probably want to spread some of the main even love to others and make them look good.

Charlotte has never seen the outside of the WWE system and for her to act like she was trying to stand up for the girls considering all of the pushes that have been derailed in favor of her is laughable.  

 

Charlotte's job is to make the booker's vision come to light, and this was hardly the stupidest thing they've ever asked her to do.  

 

Yes she's probably AEW bound.

Now that they've finally shunted the "never should have been on TV" crowd like Janela, Luther, Sonny etc to the youtube purgatory where they belong and got some actual talent on their TV, they were bound to eventually put on a good show or ten.  Their window of this being a war seems to be rapidly closing, but at least now they're in a state where they have some must-see stars.  Just tell the Bucks and CAW-dy "we can still be friends!" and all shall be well.

What's laughable? Every report has always been she got these pushes put on her because wwe didn't have faith in others. Why is that her fault? Or laughable? It feels more often than not she's trying to do better for her division. She knows her fame is unfuckwitable. 

 

The bookers vision has been shit. Bianca shouldn't have dropped, Becky shouldn't be heel coming back, Charlotte is right in feeling her feelings. 

 

So much is fucked for the women.

Eeh Charlotte has shown to have shit body language when she is set to lose matches despite almost never losing clean but anyways. Most know when they have to take the L you don’t show it and at the very least help make the opponent look good outside of the 4HW, Asuka and maybe Rhea she won’t give you much. It just feels like her “camp” is putting out statements to protect her image also her still being upset at the Becky “plastic” line or whatever is definitely her or Ric talking to people.

If this wasn't true and she was a scum bag I feel like we'd hear more wrestlers who left wwe diss her. And I have never heard anything like that.. Just backstage management issues

For the most part, there haven't been nearly as many main level WWE ladies leave compared to the men the last couple of years, the big one was Zelina who came back.  We'd have to see one of the Horsewomen or Asuka or Nia or the MMA ladies shoot on her to really get an idea.  I can't think of anyone Charlotte has worked a significant program with in the last 4 years that are free agents or in AEW rn.

Ruby is really the only one that comes to mind but that was super short plus I doubt she would air dirty laundry on the rest of the women as compared to management that loved to fuck with her.

 

 

the only other case would have been when Peyton Royce mom made some post on Twitter against Charlotte, but that’s really it.

I like Charlotte as a worker, even selected her as the cover athlete for the 2K Battlegrounds flyer I commissioned...but yeah, I figured she was the one out of the pocket and not the writers.  If she didn't cause a scene in the middle of her father building up to an affair with Lacey Evans, and drew the line at an innocuous nothing segment...

Have read a few reports popping up that Charlotte is becoming increasingly difficult to work with. As mentioned before, she can have her gripes with the way the division is being booked, but going off the script and going into business for herself is definitely not the way to go. And I don't know how much she is about "building the division" as much as she "doesn't want to look bad".

Her success is getting to her head and is pulling Hogan moves. Word is that none of the women want to work with her. She's putting herself in a no win situation

That report sounds about what I thought. Charlotte's right to be pissed about shitty storylines, however she handling it all wrong. I definitely empathize cuz I've been shitty at work when I felt things gettin sour, but still, can't take it out on your coworkers and put them on the spot. 

 

She should've handled her issues backstage or maybe she has but hasn't made any progress so she's becoming increasingly insufferable. She may be legit trying to get fired so she can get out of her contract too
