    No, it's not. Does it have to be? If you have a leg, you can break it, and if you have a breast, you can strain it. I wasn't blaming Charlotte, I was merely questioning whether it is a hindarence for HERSELF or not, given how certain female athletes chose to go through with breast reduction surgeries. Charlotte did the opposite, which answered my question. That is it.

Comparing breasts to a male wrestler's pants bulge is not equal.
    Once again, I never said what she should or shouldn't do. I asked a question about whether they are in the way of her performance or not. I'm also not against the distraction they do on a beauty level - and even if I did not find them aesthetically pleasing, I still wouldn't even suggest to change them. That is an awful lot to put into my mouth - talking about your words here.

Dave Meltzer learned that the hard way with Peyton Royce a few months ago. No white knighting needed when the writing's on the wall.
    Ahh, if a breast implant accident have affected someone already, then why is it a taboo for you to talk about?! If Seth Rollings gained 100 kilos of weight on Raw tonight, many people would wonder if it will impact his abilities or not. And not because they want to fat shame him, but because weighing 100 kilos more can seriously influence your athleticism. It won't necessarily will, but the question should be completely understandable.

    I seriously don't get how female acquintances have no problem talking about their back problems due to their larger breast sizes, but bring it up on a US discussion board, and you are walking on razor's edge, because it's sexist to even acknowledge that they do matter in athletic performances, and they can in fact cause a lot of pain on the long run.

    Let's just love Becky instead. Gotta admit, her latest tweets were rather weak and forced, but boy do I love this one.

    My dude, this started off with you saying that Charlotte's breasts take you out of her matches. I correctly said your comment was sexist and now it's turned into this debacle. You're trolling. You have no good points to make because you made a bad one and won't own up to it, which is what you typically do on this board anyway. Now you're whining about how you can't talk about women and their back issues due to breasts. Good lord.

    Why do I have to write it down for the 3rd time that my phrasing was bad?

    She doesn't take me out of her matches, period. I get it how you interpreted that way, but it's not what I meant. I can't say it any simpler than that.

    I think we're about to head into the holding pattern when all sorts of weird stuff happens or doesn't post Survivor Series into the Rumble. TLC has a feeling of potentially holding things steady with status quo outcomes and... yeah. This time of year gets a little rough.

    No, there's never been a design I've been in love with. The only shirt I do like is women's only. However I've eyed this one recently since it's new:

    I see you got it.

    I'll probably buy the new Undisputed Era shirt sometime since they're running sales often. This was the women's shirt I was talking about:

    Oh, Enzo.
    Reading some of these comments made my evening; "This dude is going to be broke and in jail in the next 3-5 years", followed by "Your timeline is very generous."

    Re: Nia Jax and her "push" -

    I feel like I'm seeing a lot of reactions to outcomes of matches and that folks aren't actively watching the matches themselves. Case in point, Nia Jax post-"Facebreaker." Nia was used SPARINGLY in the women's Survivor Series match that she won. Any time she got into the ring, she was quickly thrown or tagged out. When she did come in, she dropped three standard looking leg drops and a Samoan Drop on Asuka to seal the win. That was it. No punches, no irish whips or holds, just four quick moves and a pin. On Raw and on Starrcade, the same thing happened again. They're not letting her throw many punches and she's not staying in the ring for extended periods of time. On top of the loud boos that she's getting, they're having her do extra corny, show-off shit to get more heat.

    Rumors suggest Ronda Rousey is pushing for her feud with Nia to be a quick one and to wrap up at TLC so she can focus back on Charlotte and Becky Lynch. Charlotte is already posting tweets about wanting to kick the shit out of the other MMA 4HW while Becky is taking aim at EVERYONE. I expect that Ronda will squash Nia at TLC and that they'll potentially move onto Becky vs. Nia. Maybe that happens through a roster trade to bring Charlotte to Raw and Nia to Smackdown, or maybe they just inter-promotion it just for shits? Either way, I don't see a clear path to the future for Nia that involves her picking up meaningful wins down the road. They're harnessing the heel heat that she has now but that's about it. I think she has the PC in her future.

    Nia is a title contender. Gotta push her. After that, I'm curious if they will. I'd send her back to NXT, if it were up to me. Teach her how to work.

    On topic of women (and ones that don't suck)...

    They officially had Baron Corbin make her personally in charge of the women's division of RAW. Still hoping this isn't permanent. The only upside for her as a managerial role is showcasing her awesome fashion sense.

    It at least keeps her on t.v. and relevant. Most girls just fade away until it's their turn. We still get our weekly fix.

    Yeah but unlike most I actually enjoyed her wrestling and matches so I still do hope (and know) this is temporary. I'd hate if that was lost.

    Loved this:

    So here's the state of the titles on Raw and why I think they really hurt last night's episode -

    Tag Titles - AOP is a great, powerful, heel tag team and elevating them to that level is a great call. They're ruining it with the piss stuff. It's just as bad as the Nattie farting stuff from a few years ago. Stop it. You have too many good tag teams on Raw and they're being wasted on piss jokes.

    Women's - We're in a holding pattern of WWE's own making since they made Nia the #1 contender and have Ronda caught up in a hot feud with Charlotte and Becky. Last night's segment was awful. Both Nia and Ronda looked like amateurs on the microphone and their dialogue was horrible. Ronda did the weird thing she does with her voice and... yeah, it was all uncomfortable. The weird spot with Nattie and the Riott Squad was super out of place as well. Two things happen - Ronda loses the title to Nia who then hot potatoes it to someone else so Ronda can go to Smackdown and take on Charlotte and Becky, or Ronda retains and Charlotte comes to Raw. Either way, the current direction of the Raw women's division is super goofy.

    (the not yet real) Women's Tag Titles - FOR THE LOVE OF GOD JUST ROLL OUT THE BELTS ALREADY SO WE CAN MAKE SASHA AND BAYLEY THE CHAMPS SO THEY CAN FEUD WITH MICKIE AND ALICIA FOR SOMETHING. ugh.

    IC Title - This has the best situation of the titles but man, announcing the match at TLC between Ambrose and Rollins has turned out to be quite the roadblock for this feud. Rollins bringing back the open challenge was good until it was answered by Dolph. We have seen this match enough now and it's time to move both men on. They should have delayed the match announcement so that Seth and Dean could have had a few attempted matches that led up to this moment.

    Universal Title - *sigh* I feel like Braun is the unanointed champion here but his injury has sidelined any momentum for this feud between him and Brock. I feel like Drew, Baron, Lashley and Finn are somehow in the hunt here, but I'm also thinking I'm assigning too much of a connection between those four and how this all ties into the red belt. There are rumors that Lesnar vs. Rollins will be set for WM but will it be for the Universal title? That presumes that Ambrose picks up the IC title and that Braun would end up losing his Royal Rumble match to Lesnar if the WM match is for the title. I think the only other thing holding up Braun are his injuries - we know about the bone spurs in his elbow, but many reports are coming out that his knees are shot to hell and that's why he runs so awkwardly. They might put him on the shelf and save him for next year's Summerslam instead then.

    It's all a confusing mix that has, IMO, hurt one particular person - Finn Balor. What are we doing with Finn?

    RAW is absolute garbage. They put all their eggs into one basket with Reigns and once he had the leukemia return their plans fell apart immediately.

    the women’s roster is in a broken state thanks to Ronda Rousey holding the title. Hope Alexa is traded back to SmackDown! ASAP so I can skip skimming RAW every week. RAW is a total chore to watch and SD! Is actually enjoyable. I preferred her on SD! Anyways.

    They're in a holding pattern until rumble. I only watched s tiny bit of raw. I can't watch when Corbin is on. Sucks the life out of everything. Zero charisma.

    The women's division will get better once the Nia angle is over. Hopefully one and done.

    Not sure what the deal is with the women's tag titles? They need it, badly. And whoever thinks Bayley and Sasha are winning them are in for some disappointment.

    Nothing on raw matters or means anything. It's not even interesting enough to be labeled "trash", "train wreck", or "dumpster fire". Those are things with actual meaning and actually happen.

    This is just atrocious.

    I really wonder how proud these creative nitwits are. Do you think they have the brass to tell people what they do for a living or point how what horrendous ideas of their made network television and how many people hate it?
