    AJ would have been perfect, especially considering their little face off last year. Even someone like Emma could have been great but Brie is a waste of time. Would be like Triple H putting over Kane. It helps nobody.

    AJ yes, Emma no, there is no going back for Emma at this stage IMO.

    Someone like Emma. Young, relatively unknown, not really established and pretty good in the ring. Dont think Stephanie would be up for getting kicked around by Paige :pac:

    Obviously AJ is my first choice.

    This is most likely a Total Divas co-promotion makes more sense business wise than a random AJ Lee-Steph feud. It also plays off Wrestlemania and way to have Daniel Bryan on Summerslam without Wrestling.

    Shocker, rovert approves :pac:

    Nobody in their right mind wants to see Stephanie against Brie.

    The novelty of seeing Steph in ring gear almost makes it worth it. But not quite.

    It was a fun segment but I don't want to see a match, it's going to be crap.

    Stephanie was never up to much but she could have been carried by someone like AJ. Brie Bella isnt awful but is also nowhere near good enough to do it. I'll be shocked if it is anything other than a contender for worst match of the year.

    I'd be shocked if there was an actual match. There's going to be run ins, gimmicks and swerves all the way. At best, there'll be a few slaps thrown and a takedown/cat fight. But they aren't going to be trying for chain wrestling or a MOTY. It'll be all angle....

    2/3 falls.

    1st fall: Submission match.
    2nd fall: Cage match.
    3rd fall: 30 minute Iron-woman match.

    Wow you are still sniping at me even still?

    It has been one of the best built things on WWE. I want to see it.

    Angle that will be much more interesting and heated than Wyatt vs Jericho!

    You cant honestly expect it to be worth a place on one of the biggest PPV's of the year.

    It's almost like you are doing exactly what you constantly accuse me of doing. Disagreeing for the sake of it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭Soft Falling Rain


    AJ Lee has the mannerisms down but I find her forced and awkward on the mic. I really don't think she'd add much more to the feud in Brie's face.

    Brie actually comes across as very likeable to me anyway, so her 'poor' acting doesn't bother me in the slightest.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 991 ✭✭✭Digitalism


    Not everyone has a slight AJ lee obsession and think she's the be all-end all of the current diva's division.

    I actually think the bella's are good on the mic, and more interesting than AJ currently

    I am impressed with how they've both somewhat shaken off their twin-magic gimmick and actually carved out some sense of identity in the division. I mean, I'm not comparing it to the highs of where the division once stood, but it does stand to take some measure of pressure of AJ being the sole standout in terms of personality.

    Streak is over lads, never forget. :(

    They can be marketing whatever they want to be fair, I don't care if they're doing a multi-billion dollar deal with Subway on it, its going to be an absolute pile of **** and the fans should treat it as such.

    At least tell me Cameron/Naomi are finished feuding or we could end up with 3 women's matches on the night.

    So why do you think Truth took the streak? That was a PPV level event.

    If Stephanie and Brie Bella can convert themselves into midgets for this event, I will gladly watch this popcorn in hands.

    Brie Bella mega draw:

    8 p.m. - 4.39 million viewers

    9 p.m. - 4.51 million viewers

    10 p.m. - 4.05 million viewers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,238 ✭✭✭✭Rjd2


    To be fair, Nikki was always the massive draw in that family. :pac:

    I was raging it went so easily. Unless it was done to have him 'go crazy' and get him the real heel heat I feel its a bit of a cock up. personally, I loved his angle - beating a streak of jobbers, who he 'graciously' helped, before his lap of honour. It was Kurt Angle with a new agey twist. I thought him aiming for the top before a beat down by Brock would've been hilarious.

    Also: Article about racism in WWE appears online and gets attention. R Truth wins for the first time in ages, so he's not an jobber coz yknow jobbers don't win. Every other black wrestler gets thrown into the New Nation. Not a hastily thrown together thing at all. No sir. Definitely not a knee jerk reaction in the slightest.

    Bo Dallas is Kurt Angle to be fair. And I love it.

    Is it me or does Brie seem like she cannot handle Steph?
