This is a stretch but I think Nicki Bella's sexy hip thing at the start of her entrance kills whatever crowd reaction she was gonna get.
She comes out and immediay establishs she is eye candy. So if I'm in the arena watching I'm now more interested in her body than the 3 minute story she's telling. Call me shallow.
Turns me out of cheering & booing mode. into watching a hot scene on Game of Thrones mode.
I don't get that turn off when i watch the NXT girls. The funny thing is they're probably wearing 10% more clothing than the Raw roster girls but its enough to make me not think of them as sex objects. Like i said before this is a stretch.

Raw crowds pop more for that "you can look but you can't touch...." Theme than they do for any other women on the main roster. That just means that Nikki Bella gets the best reaction right now. It doesn't mean that she is better than Trish Stratus in her heyday. Trish also main evented RAW with Lita. That's the match I was referring to, not the one with Steph.

When did I ever say that she was better than Trish? I said she never got a fair chance and she gets better reactions than smark throbs like Emma or Paige.

Nobody wants to hear this, but that match with Niki and Paige was maybe the best WWE Divas match I've seen in years. Only Diva's match that I gave a fuck about because of the story. Twin Magic, doing it for you Dusty, 200 day long reign added a lot to the match beyond the surprisingly good work from Niki. There were submissions, knees, elbows. Everything wrestling fans want. Paige was a botch machine and Niki carried it.
Paige looks like she was about to fall over from walking in general. I'm not sure if that's selling or she's just a klutz. Looks like Bre lost a tooth or split a lip from the kick at the end.

Niki has certainly improved a lot. She is an adequate WWE women's wrestler by this point. Not great by any means, but no longer the train wreck she was 2-3 years ago.

Yeah I just hate the fact Niki and Paige were both in it. Its no Charlotte vs Natty, but it had to be the biggest surprise of the night.

I just wanna say this slow building storyline that has Paige looking for support against the Bella's is GREAT. I'm completely invested. I like that the girls were given time for a backstage segment. Ya the acting may suck but the story is top quality. I just hope that when the NXT women debut, its done in the right city. (Raw is in Chicago July 6)

Paige looked like Ventura trying to get a union going, and soon as the top names bring up McMahons name they all runaway.

I'm in a union. Its nice. They make me hold out for higher wage. If I ever lost my job, I'd need to go to the back of the waiting list to get a different job, but the union pays guys that are unemployed.
I don't make $50K per year or have a contract, so I can't hire someone to look after me. If I don't work, I'm easy to replace in a job where injuries are common. Nobody gets dumped on their head, but injured backs, cuts, burns, saws, people losing fingers, one guy managed to get squished between a forklift and a table that's cemented to the floor. He's still alive, he just won't be working a full year.
My bosses are cool though, they always say no one would want to work for them without a union. Its a really safe place, but sometimes bad stuff happens.
I do wonder if the guys setting up the ring and rigging are in a union. Those guys could fall, have something fall on them, get injured by the pyro.

Guys who set up the ring are mostly refs and ring crew.

I remember a ref union angle and that wrestler union faction.

Striking refs showed me that Harvey Whipplemen was an underrated ref.

He was an underrated women's champion too.
