WWE is still a scripted drama, and I seriously doubt that pull aparts at weigh ins and press conferences are not manufactured.
Helll, most fighters break kayfabe in post fight interviews.
Do we want this to be taken seriously? Or do we want to be stuck in the kayfabe bubble? I think it's time to get off the fence on this and realize, we as fans need to stop being two faced about kayfabe.

Paige was a waste of a chance, better wrestler than Nikki Bella my ass. That match at Survivor Series was all the proof I need.

I'm no friend of Paige, but I liked the Survivor Series despite Paige's chasm of a mouth. Its like she has no teeth its just all black in there. The taunts really take away from the match. Sticking out her Lady-Taker tongue at the crowd. Yelling in that awful Kelly Osbourne voice. Getting up on the guard rail to do a spot and the end result didn't look good. A lot of the spots felt sterile like lets go over here and do this. Then we'll go over there and do that.
The match was impactful; probably more than any other match on the card outside of fighting at the table and through it.
The real problem I got from the match is Charlotte worked Paige's neck the entire match then wins with a move that hurts your knee. If people whine about working a leg the entire match only to have a pinfall then here you go.
This is the first time in years that I feel Charlotte has had a good match (that I've seen). I don't watch NXT outside of big events.
Charlotte's offense has a lot of needless flash. Flip into a neck breaker. Flip into a different neck breaker. Figure-4 with a back arch doesn't put more hurt on the knee it just looks more impressive.
Here's a good question; why are the women the submission wrestlers and the men spend most of the match on their feet throwing punches, kicks and clotheslines?

I've never been more proud of the WWE Divas than last night.
Amazing match. Moved me to tears.

Here's a good question; why are the women the submission wrestlers and the men spend most of the match on their feet throwing punches, kicks and clotheslines? I don't know man, lifting the legs up while putting pressure in a figure four would (in theory) add weight to the leg causing some more pressure so saying it doesn't put more hurt I'd disagree. I mean of course it's not really meant to hurt but I could "picture" it hurting more if one was to lift the legs up and add weight on it, since you have your body weight pulling down. Mechanically speaking I would think the figure 8 would hurt more. As for why she does it, well it is simple. She's showing off her assets by stretching herself out. Just in a "ladylike" way of not really showing anything since its a submission move. Why women use submission vs brute strength? I'd venture a guess that it makes them look more physical without being physical.
