That was awful. What the hell has happened to Bayley.

NXT writers, who know how to book a wrestling show: "Well let's see. If we do X, Y and Z, Bayley is a superstar and the biggest star in the promotion."

WWE writers, who don't know how wrestling works: "Screw off with that noise. We'll fix this mess they've made! Bayley needs to be completely redone because this whole building her up and making people care about her is stupid!"

 

[Navi]

Could be worse, she could be Sasha Banks.

True dat. At least Sasha gets some offense in. That was just terrible on Bayley's end of it.

 

[Wildcat66]

Can we all agree that Bayley should just go back to NXT or SmackDown? Feels like the only way to save her career on WWE at this point.

 

[Dmbfantomas]

Adam Jones should get a WM moment. It's just tough that MLB seasons starts when WM is happening.

 

[OYDK]

Well, that's Raw booking to a tee. One person is always booked disturbingly strongly to the detriment of the rest of the roster.

 

[LBGetBack]

Alexa is fantastic, but that should have been a much better match.

I am completely over the "typical" back and forth WWE match that's so predictable that you know when it's going to end.

A match that's a one sided beatdown that ends unexpectedly....I liked it.

Better make sure that Seth Rollins isn't under any of those spikes.

She wouldn't be believable at all, she couldn't swing that damm stick to save her life.

Everyone on the roster should turn heel. That's the only way to get the fans to like you. Some backwards ass logic in wrestling nowadays.

A Sasha-Alexa feud will be fantastic. Sasha can match Alexa on the mic and in being a badass with personality. Plus Sasha can wrestle, and carry the match.

"Bring Back Techno Team 2000" sign, LOVE IT!

As soon as Bliss got her hands on that stick the match was over, we all knew that. At least Bayley had a chance and blew it. So it wasn't unexpected it was projected halfway in.

 

[Bernkastel]

So when Sheamus and Cesaro lose this tonight are they going to split and have another best of 7 against each other?

 

[Sean Valjean]

She wouldn't be believable at all, she couldn't swing that damm stick to save her life.

I'd only buy it if she was swinging at a Pinata.

 

[klunderbunker]

Announcers: "CAN BAYLEY GET EXTREME???"

People who booked this match: "No."

And that's the entire story after a five minute near squash. I'm sure Bayley is totally to blame though as she just didn't try hard enough.

I mean....pretty much every face that was over in the Attitude Era was a complete asshole. Same with ECW. This is nothing new.

 

[Wildcat66]

I'm sorry, but I need to say it; either Bayley got into some deep shit with people in the back or she did something really stupid and now she's paying the price for it. Either way, Bayley got a raw deal.

...Ring the alarm bells folks, this might be the end of Bayley as a main event player in the Women's Division until further notice.

 

[Dmbfantomas]

Shesaro should let Jeff leave. Not even touching him.

 

[enviousdominous]

I bet Jeff could just squeeze through one of those spaces in the corners.

 

[Slash-LN]

What they SHOULD have done was have Bayley snap and go to town on Alexa with the kendo stick.

Have the match come to a referee stoppage. Keep the title on Alexa. People probably would have been pissed with the finish but it would have shown a fire in Bayley and given her a bit of an edge.

It's like when a kid gets bullied in school and finally has enough and punches the bully. People are shocked and look at them a little differently.

Have Bayley do an interview the next night on RAW where she explains she never saw herself doing something like that but she kind of enjoyed it.

You could even take it a step further where she becomes the bully and a heel.

Keep that going for a while.
Eventually have her saw she lost herself along the way and turn back face.

True. Steve Austin beat up a woman on camera like a week after beating up his wife in real life.

 

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

This is so odd. Just let somebody escape and pound the crap out of the remaining guy.

 

[Snugglebites]

It's nice having a cage match without pinfalls.

 

[Black Anaconda Vise]

Have I missed anything decent?

 

[Vageena Hertz]

Why doesn't a team just let one of the others leave then beat the remaining one to a pulp?
