It takes away her edge, so to speak.I don't get the problem with that Becky tweet. I mean it's unnecessary I guess, but whatever.

I dont see a cruiserweight match review in here. Please watch that that great match.My review of the "Stomping Grounds Pay Per View" after not having watched Raw or SD for a month.
- Becky/Lacey was alright. Not great. Not bad. Right finish but they seem to be continuing it so lol.
- KO and Sami vs. New Day was great
- Ricochet vs. Joe was great and they put over Ricochet huge and sold his win as a big deal. Best thing on the show IMO and if they go Ricochet/AJ next that will be something to watch.
- Bryan and Rowan vs. Heavy Machinery was way, way, way, way better than I expected. Easily the best Heavy Machinery match I've ever seen and the crowd was crazy into it because of Bryan.
- Bliss vs. Bayley was okay. Probably the best main roster match they've had together (which is not saying much) but I really appreciate the edge they've given Bayley. She's not a completely different character, just smarter and takes less bullshit.
- Roman vs. Drew had good moments, but holy fuck just fire Shane McMahon into the motherfucking sun. Dude is boring as shit and it's the same stuff over and over. When Roman and Drew went back and forth without Shane, it was good.
- Kofi vs. Dolph was meh. Completely nothing. Dolph is still boring and uninteresting. Kofi is still over and he tried his hardest but there was just nothing here. This was a 2012 Smackdown gimmick PPV midcard match.
- Seth vs Corbin was terrible, but they did do a good job of building the big pop for Becky. The fact that THIS FEUD MUST CONTINUE is awful considering the parties involved. It is amusing that Becky is back in the main event again by virtue of just being more over than those guys. lol
In conclusion, first half of the show was mostly great. Second half sucked shit or was just downright boring (not sure which is worse).
Sure sounded that way at the end of the show. Crowd didn't pop at all when she came out.
Because she main evented wrestlemania and now her involvement in the main event is to help her man and brag about him and how badass he is.
Becky being tied to a romance and a man is the last thing she needs.
Just like his girlfriend!

2019 has been a hell of a ride
That's has to be a record low for them.Meltzer said Stomping Grounds only had about 4.5k in paid attendance.
Rollins main evented a WWE PPV that only sold 4.5 tickets and went on to have a flat out terrible match. Perhaps he should pick a better time to do a poor impersonation of his girlfriend on twitter.
Meltzer has said a few times that this is an outlier as they generally sell really well for PPV's.I've been reading Death of WCW (entertaining read altought very badly written) and I'm at a point were WCW would sell out shows despite being shit because the brand was so strong.
WWE seems to be the opposite now. 4.5k for what is the biggest wrestling company in the world is shameful.
I mean, with that card who would want to pay for that? But, most importantly, it seems their brand isn't saving them anymore. Being a WWE show isn't enough (unless is Mania or SummerSlam).
Here's a look at the last 10 weeks of SmackDown numbers as compared to the same week in 2018:
Meltzer has said a few times that this is an outlier as they generally sell really well for PPV's.
In any case ratings have tanked over the last 12 months at a rate way higher than previous.
The match lineup for the PPV was incredibly bad, everyone expected it to be a bad show. I wouldn't be surprised if they have another bad turnout this year for a C level PPV down the line.Yeah, maybe it's just a blip. But 4.5k for a WWE PPV seems really low. Shockingly so.
TV numbers keep dropping I think PPV attendance is an indicator that you can't say "TV viewership is down for everyone". It's a good popularity indicator.

If you want every bad thing WWE had done on one place
Hopefully a big outlet does something with this
I wouldn't hold my breath. With the Iran stuff going on, combined with Trump bumbling it every step of the way, and add in the fact that Linda was the only member of Trump's cabinet at the time that came across as less crazy than the other members, and you get the recipe of the media not caring. That's not factoring in the democratic primaries being a massive trainwreck right now. It doesn't help that she's already stepped down from that role either, and her confirmation was fairly bipartisan in the first place (81-19).
