[2/11] Smackdown Spoilers, Videos, and "Live" Discussion (SD Links Added)

[R=G]

Let's talk about Becky Lynch for a second They got her as this SUPER GOOD GIRL who is gonna do the right thing no matter if she's double crossed or not. Sasha gets beat down..she runs to her aid..twice. LOL. Kind of funny. It does seem like Sting to a degree but whatever. I like it and I like that she can be a decent female Captain America type and fans still go for it.

 

[The Rainmaker]

Wyatt talked about how they were here to take out the "titans" of WWE.

 

[23Barrettcity]

Had to take shots at DB?

Surprised Jericho got the win clean.

I'm fine with that . If not we'll hear the complaints when he eventually loses down the line and they say he's buried

 

[Ill Lou Malnati]

More vague, directionless rambling from the swamp jobbers.

 

[TheGodling]

Sasha Is the best all arounder, no doubt, but Becky is as good as it gets anywhere in the industry in the ring.

She is not though. In fact Becky who will likely get fukked over by the end of this is better and has looked more impressive since callup.

The NXT takeover matches we see are overly rehearsed weeks in advance. It would be like taking a test with your study notes in front of you. It would be hard to not fail.

This booking that they're using with Sasha is the same failed Triple H plan used to get Roman over.

Purely on in-ring skills Becky might have Sasha beat but like @R=G said, Sasha is a more complete wrestler.

 

[SpacelySprockets]

I just wanna see naomi vs sasha, too bad they didnt save that for a bigger stage

 

[jerniebert]

Happy with a clean finish but this 50/50 booking bullshyt needs to stop. Trading wins rarely works.

Where is this complete wrestler on the main roster? Becky has been better since call-up. Instead of having Sasha get over organically they're just relying on NXT hype to get her over, hell they let her be in 2 takeovers since callup and now they're attaching her to a hot act in Becky to attempt to get her over with casual fans. They're hoping by making Becky look weak and Sasha look strong that casuals that support Becky will stop cheering her and cheer Sasha. This is similar to what they did with Roman and Dean to try to get Roman over with Smarks.

Sasha was held back on purpose to give fans the illusion that she was being overlooked (and to provoke the We want Sasha chants) when in reality she was always the plan for Wrestlemania. I've noticed they have been keeping Sasha and Charlotte separate from each other which implies that that was their plan all along.

The shock! You mean they actually put wrestlers in positions where they're meant to be cheered and pushed toward championship wins and high profile matches?!?!!

The point is Sasha was always the chosen one and she was always the main plan for Wrestlemania. They will sabotage all that aren't their favourites case in point Becky.

I love this gif

Sasha's a more complete act and is more over than Becky.

So... what's the problem?

I think Sasha was held back deliberately to save her for WM, yes. It was never the plan of making it seem she was overlooked, because she has always had the strongest booking since the call-up. They just held her back to not blow their wad early on. And in the meantime Becky garnered a lot more support, which has a lot to do with the fact she's the only heavily pushed face in the women's division right now.

So... what's the problem?

Sasha & Becky are both over with the crowds so why should one be cast off in favor of the other when both are over. Why sacrifice one for the other anyway?

How is Becky being sacrificed? Whatever losses she had recently were either because of heel tactics or distractions/intervention. They're still protecting her losses.
