ESPN.com recently interviewed WWE Women's champion Sasha Banks.

Wanting to be equal:

> "We say things like 'women's wrestling' and 'women's revolution.' I hope one day it's not 'a good women's match.' I don't want the women's wrestling part. I just want to be equal to my partners. Why can't we be treated equal?. I think once we get a women's main event at a pay-per-view and you drop 'women's wrestling,' that will prove we are on the same level. A couple of years ago we were seen as the popcorn match or the bathroom break for the fans, and that's not the case anymore. I want to be the main event at WrestleMania. I feel if that's not in my lifetime, I know that I'm helping build the foundation for the next generation of women to do that."

Being frustrated with WWE product:

> "It was so frustrating for me to see amazing women in WWE do what the guys would do, and then the next week they would be in a 'bra and panties' match. Growing up, that wasn't what I wanted to do. I watched a lot of Japanese women's wrestling, so I knew what women could do in the ring. I knew we could be just like the guys."

I legitimately wish a man would just slap this horse and put her in her place. She needs to be fucking humbled and shut the fuck up about this MUH EQUALITY bullshit. Christ.
>>
Over in /tg/ we have a saying when somebody's complaining about a bit of tabletop bullshit that's specific to D&D but are acting like it's part of the entire genre.

So, to paraphrase my neckbearded brothers, Sasha, have you tried not wrestling for WWE?

Because there are other promotions that don't have all this Vince McMahon baggage.

If Sasha wants to be equal than put her in a match with Brock.

Make it happen WWE.
>>
>>1913225

Yeah, but WWE is where you get the most exposure and the most money. You think PWG is gonna pay her what Vince is payin' her? And TNA won't even pay her at all!
>>
It's funny how women's wrestling is more popular and prolific in Japan yet you won't find any feminist GRRL POWER bullshit there.
>>
>>1913234

That's because joshi have already proven themselves to be great performers. Fuck, some of them innovated moves that guys popularized here - the Vertebreaker, for example.
>>
I like this comment from wrestlinginc comments section:

> Remember the good old days when they used to go out and make history instead of telling us that they're gonna make history- you can't force these things.
>>
>>1913234
She's not really doing any GRRL POWER bullshit here, though. She's calling out GRRL POWER bullshit like the HiaC match and Foley creaming himself over "making history". She's saying cut all the bullshit out and just let us fight like real people.

Which is how it should be done. Lots of other promotions have proven that women can in fact wrestle at an entertaining level. WWE is the only one that has this problem.
>>
>>1913245

It's like how at Wrestlemania now Cole says "OMG WE'RE WITNESSING A WRESTLEMANIA MOMENT".

>>
>>1913234
I think Meltzer reported that Vince is refusing to put the the woman's hell in a cell match as the main event even though HHH and creative want to.

I heard the reasoning is that you can only do "A woman's main event" once, and that Vince isn't against the idea he just wants to promote and build the first woman's main event on ppv because it will be "historic" and wants to do it in a way to make the most money from it.

Its actually not a bad move, hell in a cell isn't the type of ppv to showcase it, but I don't see him doing it for one of the big 3, he will probably make a new ppv for it, Money in the Bank wouldn't be a bad idea, they have actually been the best ppvs the past few years and is becoming more relevant than Survivor Series
>>
>>1913234
Yeah that's what she's saying.
>>
>>1913246
Real talk, its not ability as much it is about making money. Men main event because it draws money. Women's wrestling does NOT draw.

So Sasha has no right to demand these main events regardless of whatever it is billed to be.
>>
The problem is if you drop the "good women's match" thing, a miniscule amount of matches are remotely as good as the men's.
>>
>>1913251

Survivor Series is getting Brock/Goldberg so its obviously still relevant.
>>
>>1913251
They need to do it at a non-big 4, non-gimmick (HIAC, TLC) show like Roadblock.
>>
>>1913251
Survivor Series (not this one) would be a good PPV for it too because you can have the world champion(s) in a SS match rather than defending the belts, so it won't detract from those titles by looking like a demotion. Kind of like what they did on NXT by having Balor involved in a tag match while Sasha and Bayley main evented.
>>
>>1913248
Yeah, WWE is retarded and forced now.

And its not all WWE creative fault either. Wrestlers back in the day took this shit seriously, went to war with each other for their position on the card. Nowadays the talents sit around and play vidya backstage. How is the show gonna have any intensity? there is a reason Brock stands out amongst the rest like a Titan because he's the real deal, he's 100% out there no filter.

Women are a division though, same as the announcers calling a 'cruiserweight match'

Its a way to separate the competitors.

Its like asking to stop calling someone a raw or smackdown competitor and calling them a wwe competitor.

>>1913234
Mexican female wrestlers can work with male wrestlers and they can be admired for their in-ring abilities and not their looks. Apparently it's an American thing
>>
>>1913328
But Mexicans and South American countries have no issue with admiring a woman for their looks and are open about it, and woman have no issue with being sexualized. Because of this openness it allows woman to be both taken seriously for ability and looks(when applicable) and you don't have the issue in the States where depending on the context you can only recognize a woman's attractiveness or only recognize her ability and are punished for viewing her attractiveness. This situation forces men to choose one or the other for every context, and the male drive is always gonna prefer the sexual context when forced to recognize only one aspect, US men (and women) aren't conditioned to recognize both, talking about sex openly is discouraged in US society

Survivor Series is only relevant due to its past, it was actually very entertaining back in the 80s and early 90s when people still cared about the elimination match.

It has been brutally unentertaining for the past 10+ years and has been neglected by creative. The Brock/Goldberg main event(if it happens at SS) is just another half ass attempt to make it relevant again, just like when they booked the Cena/Rock tag team match. They should of did a Team Cena vs Team Rock and have a stipulation where winner chooses the match type.

This year they should do a Team Goldberg vs Team Brock and have the winner choose the stipulation for a match they will have at the Rumble. They still get the in ring return of Goldberg, they can still have him fight Lesnar but instead they can use it to build a Royal Rumble main event and use it as a tease to it. They can also make Goldberg look strong by squashing people on Team Lesnar, and book the finish in a way that they still both look strong

Y'know, Sasha seems like a nice enough girl. This interview makes it sound like she hates the "women's revolution" shit she's forced to shill and she just wants to wrestle. I can certainly respect that.

But her character and her material sucks, she gives bad, rambling promos and she's gonna kill herself in the ring trying to go full-tilt at this point.

I feel bad for her for having to shill Steph's garbage. I bet she wants to be an egomaniac heel like she was in NXT , but she's too important to MUH BRAND to do that right now.
>>
>>1913412
>>1913420
It was a great moment (Dolph goes beast mode, Sting shows up, Authority dies) that they refused to capitalize on in any way.

I hate it. It's one of my favorite moments of the Network era and it was fucking wasted.

>>1913214

We should come up with a Botcha/Charlotte HIAC bingo card. Suggestions?

>>
>>1913251
>>1913258
imo, with this you need to go big or go home. Doing it on a gimmick-ass C-PPV like HiaC or TLC would be a waste. A B PPV like Money in the Bank or Battleground might be okay, it might give them a bit of credibility like have Battleground was kinda upgraded from a Z-Tier PPV because of its great card this year.

But honestly, what I'd do, is, do it at Summerslam 2017. Make it a brand-vs.-brand match, do Charlotte vs. Becky or Charlotte vs. Asuka (who got called up to SD after the Rumble or after Mania or something)

She's just sodding delusional at this point. You're not called "women's wrestling" as some kind of sexist ploy to keep the women down during the 2000's. You're called women... and I know this is a shocker... because you're a woman?

You don't hear Amanda Nunes, Joanna Jędrzejczyk, Miesha Tate or Ronda Rousey going on about wanting to drop the title women, because that's their fucking gender. Same bloody reason you have mens 100m sprint and womens 100m sprint in the Olympics. To differentiate.

I mean, this entire argument is fallacious because you don't call men's wrestling "men's wrestling", which is the point she is trying to make...which is obvious because you cite evidence to back this up (mens 100m sprint v women 100m sprint -- would you prefer to just call it 100m spring and women's 100m sprint? if so, you're a tool. if not, you're argument sucks.

Ronda Rousey doesn't complain about it because there's a very good reason why Ronda Rousey only fights women.

There's really not any reason to have Sasha Banks only fight women. She probably looks at Japan and Lucha Underground where men fight women and it's not even a big deal and it drives her fucking insane.

Charlotte's pushing hard for a moonsault off the cage, but it isn't going to happen.

I think she's at least trying to give the match a huge spot so the match has weight.

A main event hell in a cell match needs something, and she knows that. And no way can you trust Sasha to deliver it.

I feel bad for Charlotte really, she'll probably lose too because for some reason the fans like Sasha despite her being more of a bitch than the actual heel.

I agree with her desu, this whole women's wrestling bs that the wwe is crapping out is redundant and doesn't even accomplish the equality they're supposedly trying to achieve. They're still shining unecessary light on the fact that they're women, that's all they have going on in their current storyline ffs. I also find it funny how even tho the E is supposedly portraying their women just as important and capable as the men, they still won't have intergender matches or write storylines that consistently and efficiently incorporate both men and women, it's like each gender lived in their own microcosmos, rarely crossing paths.
