It seems like Becky has cooled off a little and Kofi has become the main fan interest storyline

Limping and getting manhandled by Rhonda don't help.

More like the convoluted story to get to the 3 way with a bunch of unnecessary and confusing logic have stalled out the momentum of that story. It's been a longer build since this began at the Rumble and they are stalling for time. She's still consistently the most over person in the entire company. She's working both shows and despite not really doing anything (because of the convoluted, multiple storyline injuries), the reactions are still the loudest of the night. Kofi's are matching hers now but its not like its one or the other. Fans are interested in both.

SD was really good tonight.

Don't like Asuka losing though (even if the match was very entertaining)

It was but I think that was a quick finish because she legit injured her knee during the match

We give Brian Armstrong a lot of flack but he did 2 things in the main event.

He gave the fans want they wanted and he put the New Day over as a legitimate team.

Kudos and great show that IMO was Smacktastic

Sorry for the TLDR but I need to say this:

In today's smark world of wrestling, with kayfabe long gone and everyone knowing it's scripted, it has become easy to constantly criticize the wrestling product. Especially the WWE product. From scripted promos to overlong backstage segments to bitching about who is getting what push.

Easy to the point of being lazy bandwagon hate.

I'm as guilty as anyone of this.

Sometimes we get so caught up in our "Hate Everything WWE" bandwagon that we are almost ashamed to admit when they did something that really got to us.

Well, I am going to admit it. They got me last night with The Usos Forfeit.

Well done WWE.

Ronda walking out of WM with both women title's is going to be awesome to watch the marks melt down.

I'm going to have to call fabrics on this. There has been no mention, not even a rumor, of Asuka injuring her knee. I was there live and there was no indication of any injury. None.

That's not going to happen. Not after the main event announcement, it won't. If the match was earlier, you might have a leg to stand on.

I guess they will end WM with the 4 horsewomen standing tall all with championships! This is why Charlotte won the SD title and will not have it up for grabs at WM.

Why do you suddenly care about the women's main event match? Didn't you say you weren't going to watch it?
Just because I'm not going to watch it doesn't mean I don't care about it. I'm just going to enjoy Ronda winning and the Becky slurpers crying in sorrow.

Starting to think that's the plan....make her a "female Brock".

This sounds like a plausible theory. Also sets the wheels in motion for a horsewomen vs horsewomen match at survivor series.
