    if they're really worried about ronda getting booed and it effecting her performance they could easily turn her heel w/o involving charlotte. btw people are still going to boo the **** out of ronda at mania whether charlotte is in the match or not.

    And yes, I did wonder if fans would boo Asuka the way they booed Charlotte and Ronda. They didn't. So in that case it wasn't an issue. Unfortunately for Ronda it clearly is an issue, as it's already shown to effect her performance. And that's not a huge issue in a promo on RAW... but its potentially a big one in the main event of Wrestlemania, when women are headlining for the first time ever. Charlotte theoreetically mitigates that.
    they're worried the 1st year rookie might not deliver an epic match in the main event because she's getting booed, so instead of just turning her heel and doing a simple heel champion vs underdog face they decide to book her in 3way with 2 faces and 1 heel??

    fuking brilliant, makes much more sense than they're just stubborn and are forcing charlotte in. you win. peace.

Hell, if they do anything else other than let Roman speak, it'll probably be to fully bury the hatchet between Seth and Dean and we'll get one last fist-bump pose of them together before Dean shuffles off after WM.
    the rumors a few days before reigns return was announced was vince wanted roman back on tv because the ratings were so bad etc and that was the whole reason ambrose was turned face suddenly. just rumors but still makes sense.

    too funny. he wasn't good enough to wrestle there but good enough to be an agent. they should put him on commentary.

    Quite frankly, I don't really give a **** about the rumors about ratings since I'm not a TV executive. /shrugs

    well i wasn't telling you about the rumor for the ratings part, i mentioned it for the part about reigns. while he might not mind it also seems as though it wasn't xactly his idea either(and still in poor taste).

    i forgot to mention also that i'm pretty damn sure they've more than a word about reigns since october.

    If fans wanted to boo Ronda everytime she comes out, then it probably would make more sense to turn her heel, unless maybe her merch is selling well.

    But if she's not really getting heel heat in any other context, including matches against other faces like Sasha and Natalia, then it doesn't necessarily make more sense to turn her for that one match.

    they turn these women heel/face and back again anytime the wind blows, but yeah i'm sure that's a big factor.

    You have no idea whether or not that it was his idea.

    I'm talking about in relation to his illness, don't twist what I'm saying. Only person that can disclose that is Roman himself.

    If that means they're being more careful with how the book Ronda, then good. Because they SHOULD be more careful with how they book her for a variety of reasson. You don't want to necessarily just turn her face or heel anytime the winds blows. If they turn her, it's something they want to carefully consider, with an actual plan behind it.

    Fighting with My Family should do around $7-8 million opening weekend. Normally it would be a cause for concern with a big Hollywood film. But the WWE and MGM was wise on this one. The budget for the film was $11.5 million to make this. So they should make the production budget back which is ok. The film isn't gonna be a major hit as we see. I'm thinking it will go around $14-20 million in that area domestically.

    It's not, it's fake. I've looked everywhere and found nothing.

    Kenny Omega is in charge of shouting talent for AEW's women division. All the Joshi signings were his recommendations apparently. He working with DDT to try to bring more women over.

    that's the nature of rumors, i was only pointing out the timing of which info was released makes it SEEM very possible.
