This is the same criteria you just used to conclude that Charlotte wasnt always a good promo. We know based on how they've performed using the same criteria.

I'm not talkin just what the content is.. take Alexa Bliss. The content she has to work with isn't always great but her delivery is 100% natural and she never stumbles. Charlotte sounds like a robot whether face or heel, but as a heel is works it a little better.

Sasha giving pandering face promos is all wrong. She's supposed to be flashy and a bytch.

Charlotte is alright but fans have turned on her promos like she was Sheamus. So she's not lighting the world on fire...she's got a lot to work with since they let her win all the time to give her credibility.

Sasha saved that disaster in England...not Charlotte. She got as shook as Roman did during this terrible scene

Reigns had the fans after he beat Sheamus on Raw. The crowd popped when he attacked Trips, and when he got Vince. Of course as usual, they decided to fukk it all up by having him defend the title in the RR. The neckbeards figured he'd win, he didn't. Triple H won and they figured he'd Main Event Mania and win, he did.
They fukk up having the whole LON pull him out of the ring not throw him out and then just having him chill in the back and not come back out til the end. When they had him reappear the crowd was :stopitslime::stopitslime:booking him in that way did him no favors with the fans.

Comparing Charlotte to Roman doesnt work. She's a heel, she's supposed to get boos. I dont know what "the fans turned on her" is supposed to mean.

This. The match against Sheamus with Vince intervening was perfect booking and it finally got the fans on Roman's side. Then Vince just had to go and press his luck. :upsetfavre:

The worst part is that he's now caught in that shytty situation where no matter what he'll get booed as a face but they can't turn him heel either because the fans would start cheering him.

Everything that made her the boss they have completely striped away from her and made her this i'm happy to be here face so damm cheesy. All the edge/swag she had as NXT boss even Team Bad boss is gone. They damm near have her coping AJ Lee promos from a few years ago.

Why does it sound to me that Charlotte is always yelling into the mic or at the very least always raising her voice in every promo. She will start in one tone then midway thru the promo she always gets higher.

I dont know why everyone just assumes this as fact.

shyt was 95' levels of bad. At least in 95' they had Bret who was able to carry Diesel to some good matches. There are literally zero redeeming qualities about that Reigns/Sheamus/Vince era last year.

That Reigns-Vince feud really was the dumbest shyt ever. They honestly tried to run an angle and convince people Vince didn't want Reigns as champion :mjlol:

It was absolute jokes breh :dead:

It's amazing how the WWE can both push Reigns and sabotage him :mjlol:

Having Reigns squash 4 people at once every week isn't going to get someone over.

Superman isn't popular anymore. Underdogs like Batman, Daredevil and Captain America are; true underdogs who take a lot of beatings before finally getting the win. Seeing some overpowered monster who destroys everyone doesn't work anymore unless your a heel, Brock is an exception and even he has a lot of haters.

That Paige and Charlotte promo with Reid's name being thrown around :scust:

People forget how awful Charlotte was as a face, if you read this board the last couple months you'd think Charlotte was always a good promo

I think at some point, the writers forgot who was supposed to be the face because they both came off as heels to me.

Damn, Paige has done almost nothing since the AJ feud. :snoop:
