Also i agree about the overbooking of rhea i used to love her in jd but now im just overly bored whenever i hear the music she wasn’t booked anywhere near this powerful when she was champ she used to get sneak attacked all the time and get destroyed sometimes but now all of a sudden she can make 5 girls terrified
Completely agree. We LOVED her run with J-Day, but ever since she left it her booking has been - her music hits, she destroys anything/anyone in the ring - and that’s that… that just feels lazy, overbooked, and boring
So im not gonna lie, the liv vs Rhea war games is the most unbelievable match ive ever seen (as far as hiw each character has been booked) theres absolutely nothing objectively ypu could tell me that makes it believable. Rheas team will wipe the floor with a team eith TWO CHAMPIONS. im not even kidding it pisses me off because everyone in that ring has imense talent.
I feel the same way. Rhea just cleared a 4 v 1 yesterday while holding one weapon, how am I supposed to believe they stand a chance against her in a cage?
If criticizing Rhea’s booking makes you a hater then I’m a hater too. Your criticism is justified. It’s ridiculous. 5 people can’t take on one INJURED person with a Kendo stick? 🙄
LOVE Rhea, but how in the world am I supposed to get invested in the War Games match when she can run out there by herself and scare off the entire team? That just doesn’t feel good to watch
Rhea's booking has been like this since she returned in July. I've never really been a fan of hers but I went from liking her to actively despising her anytime I see her on tv. No one on the roster looks like they can touch her. Nia was beating her ass earlier this year when they had their feud but now she looks like a joke. Liv went from calling out Ronda Rousey and attacking Damage CTRL 1v3 a couple years ago to running away constantly. It's just so terrible. She's gonna win the title eventually and have another garbage reign because nobody will ever believe anyone can actually beat her. When Liv faced Zelina, we knew she was going to retain but the crowd was super into it and fell for the near falls because Liv isn't booked like a juggernaut.
This was such a great episode when KO and Cody have a match I think Randy will return and might even choose Kevin. Seeing punk return with heyman was also terrific that was the outcome I wanted the staredown between punk and Roman makes me think punk is only helping them for Paul and punk might even sneak attack Roman for how he treated heyman in the past
@ hell yeah it’s gotta be done Sami betraying og bloodline because as you mentioned in todays video he didn’t seem convinced about dying in battle with the rest of them. He could maybe be solos mouthpiece like ludwig with Gunther
I was in the arena last night, and even though I’ve criticized Rheas booking a lot in the past, she is so popular with the crowd. I saw Rhea shirts everywhere around the arena. Her music hitting the way it does probably contributes to the crowd reactions, but I don’t know if I’d write her any differently than they are. Maybe we just need to see the beatdowns less..
We love Rhea, we criticize the BOOKING of it all. She is SO beloved by the crowds and easily the most over woman. She needs to have someone bring her down a level because the way they’ve booked her now it just feels like there is literally no one on the roster who could even give her a run for her money at all. Plus, having her just run out and scare/beat everyone up every episode just gets repetitive
I’m so happy that Chelsea Green Won!! She deserved to win that match!! As far as who I think took out Jade: I got three names in mind. Bianca Belair herself Naomi Bayley This is Triple H & HBK all over again!!! Triple H attacked HBK after he went to the ring to cut a promo about HBK!! I think Bianca did it Welcome Back Paul HEYMAN AND CM Punk!!! Enough hate on Rhea 😂😂😂 I love MAMI Rhea & I’m so happy that she’s back & once again she’s still getting hate on her 😂😂😂 She can’t catch a break!! LIV & Raquel tried to take her out. She came back. All LIV can do is run every time Rhea comes out!! We know LIV can fight then why doesn’t she step up & stop hiding behind Raquel & not have a weapon in her hand. Rhea don’t need a weapon: SHE IS a Weapon!! Come on Now!!! WARGAMES is happening & I can’t wait for it!! LIV could’ve got out that ring & grabbed a chair while Rhea was walking down to that ring but she never did. She should’ve. Love Rhea & I always will 💜💜 if you want to hate me for loving Rhea, go ahead. Bring on the Hate 😂😂😂
Here’s the thing, we LOVE Rhea too! It’s just the booking, it’s a little much and it’s VERY repetitive with her. It’s - music hits - she runs out and scares everyone or beats them up - and that’s that. Love Rhea, just want some more grounded and thoughtful storytelling for her. LOVE Rhea tho
Rhea doesn't need a weapon 🤨 She had a crutch and was waving it around when liv injured her leg then just yesterday she used her kendo stick so..... whenever liv had try to sneak attack rhea she doesn't always have a weapon wym
Yes I appreciate all the criticism and rightfully so of Rhea's booking against liv and the whole roster. I am an individual that imo never gets tired of Rhea no matter what, call me a d rider but I just love seeing her on my screen every Monday night and don't care what feud she is in. Now I am a casual but we know Rhea is beloved by everyone and always gets a pop and is the most over. I get the BOOKING is terrible and liv is champ and should be treated as so, but Simon miller I have to agree with is that she is a strong ass character that's just how she is presented and why would you take that away from her? Okay maybe you can notch hr down a little bit but she came out like the female batman last night and destroyed everyone with a single kendo and a fractured orbital, okay yes op as hell lol. As someone who is for sure a casual but have followed her journey from RCW and NXT I just personally love seeing her on my tv and will never get tired of her, my favorite Female wrestler I have seen jmo. Also I love Liv as character and as a person especially after watching her doc on peacock and random but R-Truth has a great one as well you need to watch if you haven't seen lol. Overall I will never not want to see Rhea and love seeing her dominate but I get how the war games baby face teams seem op as hell and how the heels have no chance in hell HA. Much love, I love the breakdowns every time the nest day after a raw, PLE or smack down!!!!
Appreciate the feedback! We love Rhea too and we don’t want to take anything away from her but we want the other women to be built up that way too. Not to the extent of Rhea maybe because she’s in a class of her own, but some of the women need to be booked stronger. Again, appreciate the feedback! Love hearing that!
it's kinda like a double edged sword when it comes to rhea because i mean i get it why she's being booked so strong. on one part you want her to still be able to have her aura & appeal to the crowds especially with the causal wrestling fanbase & then when it's time to have her in a big money match at a mania she'll still be looked at as a big deal. on the other part you do kinda take away that suspension of disbelief that anybody can actually beat her clean 1v1 because of her strong booking
@ i kinda look at triple h's strong booking of rhea as a big f you to her earlier booking when she first came on the main roster back in 2021 because she was booked very badly she won the raw women's championship at the time but she was mostly a placeholder until she was going to drop it charlotte
One thing I'll say about Codys title reign. In hindsight his "boring" reign so far has been seeds planted. Thus is the first to grow. And i tbink a lot more are about to pop off.
I think Naomi attacked Jade so she can have a easier path in the tournament so she doesn't have to face any of her friends and They they supposed to be the big 3 but really it's just Jade and Bianca and Naomi is frustrated by coming up short in these big title opportunities boom common sense and logic or Bianca did it Cuz she tired of carrying the Dead weight of Jade Cargill what do y'all think
That CM Punk thought I had before with being a Paul Heyman Guy and possibly being the 5th guy chatter, I didnt think it was actually possible...such a weird prediction to be right on. Will say it again, Terminator Rhea needs to loosen and power down a bit, its ridiculously unbelievable, especially given she legit broke her face and still comes out full steam and headbutting people 2 weeks after. At this point, WWE is making her appear like she is high above the best female wrestlers in the World, it feels a bit of an insult to the other women *The Rhea/Tiffany segment was an example* the thought of a tag match to her is beneath her apparently and No one is good enough to face her single or Tag creative is going for. If shes not wrestling, contract or angle aside, at least build other women on the roster...whats next, Rhea is going to bitch slap Trish and Meiko at the same time in a promo, shes becoming more insufferable than Charlotte? I love and really hate this angle with her/women and with Livs especially, Livs story/character may be heelish but she is still honest and a fighting champion, your lucky if you see Rhea in more than 8 matches a year...in less than 6 months, Liv has defended more times than Rhea and Roman combined in a year + all the live/dark and house show as well she does every week. I hate the Roman/Brock/Rhea Champion mentality of only PPV and rarely wrestles live or house, we watch for wrestling, not presence and posing, why give her the championship if she isnt going to wrestle or defend as well as being injured and not recovering, she will get injured more. They need to keep it on Liv, start a new storyline and apponent and maybe wait a year to have Rhea in the fold. Also she needs to work on this 'face' character, she is still heel Rhea, if they are going to have her the face, she needs to drop the vengeance and heel mentality angle going after Liv. Shes same ol Rhea, except for an awkward pat on her war games team mates head/shoulder to appear good...make it make sense? Rant done.
Agree for the most part on Rhea. Idk if I’d want them to go full face with her, I’m ok with her being a tweener that kind of has a heelish feel but at this point she is all powerful. She walked out into a 4v1 and cleared this week without a sweat once again. That just isn’t believable or interesting
you want liv to stand tall but in reality she dont even deserve to stand infront of rhea becoz she is no match..Y.ou dont like booking but if liv win againt rea then it would b highest booking evER
Not true at all. One, Liv is the champ, she should be able to stand up to any other woman in the division when necessary. Two, this was the exact same booking for the war games women match on raw and smackdown within 5 days of each other, it is a fair point to say that that is lazy booking and deserving of a drop. We love Rhea, but having her just run out and either scare everyone away or beat them up every single time she appears is not fun booking and feels lazy without anyone challenging her.
No, that’s not the point. The point is that Rhea’s weekly “come out, beat everyone up” is repetitive and boring in our eyes. If they’re going to keep doing Liv vs Rhea then you HAVE to establish that Liv can stand up to her every once in a while. Plus, this episode specifically, it was literally 5 on 1 at the point where Rhea came out to attack and everyone ran away, so how are we supposed to believe that team Liv has any chance at all after that?
We like Rhea more than Liv. Her in ring is much better, her promo is better, and her personality is incredible. It’s the booking we criticize. Yesterday Rhea walked out and scared off every single member from team Liv just by being present. That’s way too overpowered booking and makes the war games match feel one sided as could be.
@@jacksonando2612 thing is though that rhea is just overbooked now too strong and feels like any character to go alongside it whereas liv is more interesting more storyline and more character behind her
No one is hating Rhea, and that doesn't work either because stone cold was selling things for Vince not even a wrestler. And it's BOOKING that's the problem. No one I see hates Rhea they hate what they are doing with her character.
Story telling can’t improve and get deeper in 20 years? Just because it worked once doesn’t mean it’ll always work. Love Rhea, but her being able to just run up on teams of women without any struggle gets boring
Also i agree about the overbooking of rhea i used to love her in jd but now im just overly bored whenever i hear the music she wasn’t booked anywhere near this powerful when she was champ she used to get sneak attacked all the time and get destroyed sometimes but now all of a sudden she can make 5 girls terrified

@codwrestlepod and that's not to mention Bianca and Iyo as well. Like you assembled the avengers to fight basically temu justice league 😂
If criticizing Rhea’s booking makes you a hater then I’m a hater too. Your criticism is justified. It’s ridiculous. 5 people can’t take on one INJURED person with a Kendo stick? 🙄
And AT LEAST she had a kendo stick, usually she 1v5 them easily with her bare hands 💀
THANK YOU
BINGO
LOVE Rhea, but how in the world am I supposed to get invested in the War Games match when she can run out there by herself and scare off the entire team? That just doesn’t feel good to watch
Cody cooked !! That’s the Cody I needd😅
Totally agree!

That’s the thing, it’s just too repetitive and predictably at this point, that’s where our “hate” lies with the Rhea stuff
smackdown cooked and it was 🔥 🔥
🔥🔥
This was such a great episode when KO and Cody have a match I think Randy will return and might even choose Kevin. Seeing punk return with heyman was also terrific that was the outcome I wanted the staredown between punk and Roman makes me think punk is only helping them for Paul and punk might even sneak attack Roman for how he treated heyman in the past
I’m still under the impression that Sami may turn on the bloodline! But I could also see Punk just going into business for himself !
@ hell yeah it’s gotta be done Sami betraying og bloodline because as you mentioned in todays video he didn’t seem convinced about dying in battle with the rest of them. He could maybe be solos mouthpiece like ludwig with Gunther
