RIP Beck'y's career. Just another victim of Vince's ego.


Against Nattie who's in the middle of a well-earned end-of-career rebuild - and who has been on the receiving end of a pile of shit for a long time. Sorry Butthurto - your mistreated talent can get in line. Some of us have been waiting a little while longer for their favorites to get some shine.

Natalya should be putting others over and she already has had her time to shine. If they want to put Natalya over someone, feed her Eva Marie. Becky doesn't deserve the shit Vince keeps piling on her and sure as hell should be jobbed to a woman who's only talent is being Bret Hart's niece. It amazes me even further that HHH sits there with his head up his ass and does nothing. Most over babyface they had and they destroyed her.

Agreed with royberto that Nattie sucks and Becky should've gone over. Nattie shined years ago with Beth Phoenix; her time has come and gone. I won't claim to know all the backstage turmoil that leads to Becky getting shafted, but I can't say it's not disappointing.

Taken from http://www.thecelebritiesnetworth.com/2016/02/becky-lynch-net-worth-salary-2016.html:

Becky Lynch Net Worth : $650 Thousand
Annual Salary : $220,000
Date of Birth : January 30, 1987
Country / Birthplace : Dublin, Republic of Ireland
Age : 29 Year Old
Occupation : Professional Wrestler , Model



Taken from http://www.sescoops.com/charlotte-sasha-banks-becky-lynch-get-raises-update-on-nxt-pay/

"Charlotte, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch all received either amended contracts with an increase in pay or new main roster WWE deals the day after all three made their debuts on RAW for the first time."

Man, I wish I had such a horrible boss that he gave me a raise and paid me $220,000 a year when I was 29 years old. And her being a millionaire by 31 is a fine example of her being held down and buried.

I didn't necessarily agree with the execution of the booking... (i.e. have Becky win or Natalya use nefarious means)

But stepping back for a second, and taking the landscape as is, let's say Becky vanquishes Natalya last night. Now what? Take a look at the Smackdown women's division roster. Who does she have high profile feud with now? Naomi, who hasn't been on tv for months? Alexa Bliss? Carmella? Is Maryse coming out of retirement?

Flipside - Can you afford to diminish Nattie against an over/established Becky? SM women's roster is too thin for that.

But you can say the exact same things now. Now what? Natalya already beat the top baby face clean as a sheet. Who does either one have a high profile feud with? It's the same thing. Becky could have had a feud with any of those others as heels. Natalya was already dead in the water and is long past her time. Becky against any of those other girls would have been far fresher and exciting than Natalya. You cannot keep jobbing Becky out and keep expecting people to care about her. But Becky got over on her own. Big no no. She is only supposed to get over when Vince pushes her with his writing, damnit.

While I would love ANY of that I just can't see them bringing him in as anything other than babyface. I imagine what we're probably going to get is the start of some video packages leading to a Summerslam debut.

Now, hyping a Summerslam debut that reeks of babyfacitude and having him heel it up and team up with The Club? That'd be fun. But between WWE dropping the B�lor Club trademark not too long ago and the sheer Steamboatishness of ol' Finn, I don't know that I can see that happening.

I'm always happy to be proven wrong though.

Why do you think Becky Lynch has no self-respect? Do you know her personally? Can you link to articles where she's complained about her role in the WWE? Everything i've seen from her seems to indicate she loves her job. I dunno, man. I get that you're a Protector/White Knight sort for her, but even you have to see that you're being silly.

Oh wait, or you're trolling. In that case, I guess you got one over on us for replying to you?

Either way. She's well-paid, well-respected, and has a starring role on the major league pretend-fighting prime time international tv empire that is the WWE. It appears that she's very happy with her position, at least at the moment. So whatever, man. Just whatever. Maybe take a Xanax or something. I dunno.

Re: Babyfacitude

- Great word.
- I think Zayn and Becky have the market cornered on Steamboatedness currently.
- I do believe that Balor will be a star, but I don't get that "this dude is always gonna be a face" vibe like I do with Zayn. Time will tell.
- It just dawned on me that eventually Demon Finn will fight Demon Kane. This has nothing to do with any of the previous posts.

The illegal clips of the women's tag match are still up on YouTube but the ones of Nattie/Becky have all been taken down. Goddamn YouTube, there they go burying Becky again.





You know, everyone says it's not supposed to make sense, like that's the whole point, dude. And I'm just saying, you know, that's like an excuse for lazy storytelling. Just don't sell me shite and tell me it's gold, all right? I might be stoned, but I'm not high. You know what I mean?

Just another vote on the Nattie sucks pile. She's had her shots and pulled her weights less than a half of the time. She's a fucking Hart and has botched the Sharshotter multiple times and in trying to talk herself up she buried the Title when feuding with AJ, ''Who cares if AJ has a Title, I'm a born Champion.'' Like, the fuck? You're not the goddamn Undertaker, you can't claim to be bigger than the Title and still be a face.She's been a bigger example of nepotism than Charlotte.

Anyway, Bryan started as the NXT bitch losing to everybody including a two minute squash to pre-Ryback Skip Sheffield. Zayn lost ALL os his big NXT matches/specials and Title matches) on route to his Title win.

I'm not saying that Becky is in line for eventually geting her due, but those examples prove it's worth not discarding it. But like many poor bastards, sometimes WWE will just look at a over talented star and say ''naaah''. People now use Bo as an example of certain NXT gimmicks not catching on in the main roster. They flat out forgot he got over as the undefeated motivational guru and WWE decided to just pause it and turn him into a jobber. That's how deep the guy was buried. So if you want to discard it then that's your right as a fan, but it's a bit unfair to shit on somebody's role as a enhancement talent.

It amazes me how blindly people defend WWE's bullshit booking the way you guys try to spin the topic in a different direction. She has been made to look look like an incompetent idiot while untalented ladies are being pushed way ahead of her simply because they are related to someone famous, or, in the case of Dana Brooke, oversized knockers that Vince gets off on.

The defending of WWE here is even more hilarious when you look back at all the bitching about others who didn't get pushed. I don't recall anyone else being told to take a Xanax or being accused of trolling.

Becky deserves a lot better than getting jobbed out every single PPV. There is money to be made with Becky but Vince's ego is in the way because he cannot handle that she got over on her own. Of course she isn't going to say anything because the moment she does Vince will can her.

Please. Daniel Bryan was treated as a big deal when he came onto the main roster and sure as hell didn't go his first 8 months without scoring a single fall at a PPV. Hell, he was in the main event at SummerSlam.

That's a bit revionist. Bryan's first night was as a big deal, going head to head with the World Champ. The following match he got squashed by Big Show, then lost to Barrett, then lost again, and again and again.

After he was out of his NXT rookie phase, it's when he started scoring wins.

Daniel Bryan debuted on the main roster as part of the original Nexus in a red hot angle. He got fired for the tie thing. Then he returns in the main event of SummerSlam as the big surprise. Becky hasn't come close to sniffing anything remotely like that. She hasn't been given squat since being called up. Meanwhile, Sasha was off the road for months and now will most likely be given the title at SummerSlam, Charlotte has been pushed to the moon because Ric Flair is her daddy. Freaking Bayley gets treated like a big deal her first night on the main roster. What does Becky get? Jobbed to DANA F'n BROOKE! CLEAN! Jobbed to Natalya! CLEAN! Yet people still defend that shabby treatment.

Becky Lynch deserves a lot better.

When driving and a lane is ending/merging...

For every asshole that waits until the last second to switch lanes, there's an idiot who lets them. Unfortunately there are always more idiots than assholes so the asshole keeps doing what he's doing.

Royberto is the asshole.
Everyone who continues to quasi seriously engage him on this topic is an idiot.

I'd say stop....but some other idiot is just going to come along and enable him.

Just for the record, I do think Becky is getting the short end of the stick. I just don't think it's that different than WWE's previous poor treatment of talented and popular guys. Just saying that there's examples of people rising past those slumps(more often than not, it doesn't happen I admit that) but you shouldn't hold it against others for being positive and thinkign Becky will get her moment in the sun.

Welcome to the REAL ZONE.

Is it still cool if I continue to obliquely reference the inanity of any attempts to engage in polite, rational discourse with the bag of soiled clown hankies without directly engaging said bag of soiled clown hankies in polite, rational discourse?

I feel much the same way but I don't see any real negative writing on the wall for Becky. She's featured prominently just about every week, and has become a big part of WWEs PR campaign being sent to participate and raise brand awareness at huge events like SDCC. She appears to play well with others, and to genuinely be stoked about her lot in life. House show (whichtotallydontcountforshitIknow) reports regularly list her in the top 5 biggest pops of the night. Kids love her, little girls idolize her, she has an insanely marketable visual appeal with the whole steampunk aesthetic, moves a lot of merch. She's a reliable hand in the ring who has won over the fans to such an extent that it wouldn't take much to reignite the fire and make her a serious contender for the top of her division.

In a lot of ways I see her as the Ambrose of the Women's Division. Look no further back than Wrestlemania, followed by his feud with Jericho over a jacket and a potted plant, and the IWC's (mostly outside of OO) reactions to his supposed burial and how he'll never be able to make up the ground that he'd lost to Seth and Roman since The Shield was broken up. Look at him now, a few scant months later.

Oh shit, gotta go. Kool-Aids ready.

Whoopie. She was Ric Flair's daughter's bitch in that feud and had to once again do the job there. Becky should have been given the title at Wrestlemania. Perfect "Wrestlemania Moment" and Vince's ego wouldn't allow it. Because fuck ythe fans, that's why.

I...uh, I'm not sure what this revelation adds to the discussion but, uh... I guess it's nice to see you opening up like a real person. I'd offer you a hug but I'm still bothered that I have to share a planet with you.
