[Glenn's Take]

Danhausen must have cursed the women's championship. They had to get an interim champion with Rhea out and now Chelsea Green breaks her orbital bone and is probably out for a while.

Ya it’s crazy and not like it’s even booked well so maybe they’ll just leave it for a while.

That match he put on last night was awful even for him.

I’ve never hated him like a lot of the internet, but that was a waste of 8-10 minutes.

He's been washed ever since he came back from that leg injury. I was hoping, but not expecting, maybe he had worked some rust off in ROH, but alas he had not.

Do we get an interim for the interim champion?

Another reason why you don't do interim championships. As much as Triple H and WWE loves to obsess over and copy AEW, you would have thought they would have learned not to do interim champions. But I guess that's what happens when you have a bunch of pretentious, arrogant, and egotistical idiots who lack all self-awareness who hired a bunch of mediocre yes men running creative.

So fatal influence broken the Bella girls scalp and now Chelsea’s orbital - between this and the sol botches maybe we need to pump the brakes on the nxt women taking over the main roster. Are they bumping up too many too fast? Do they need more time?

They need to train these NXT trainees to be wrestlers rather than stunt performers following a strict script.

That’s all well and good in NXT where they have regular house shows and are practicing their matches all week before going live on TV.

But on main roster they’ve drastically reduced house shows. The wrestlers aren’t together practicing their matches in the week or weeks in the lead up to the match. They may not even find out who they are wrestling until the day of or the day before! And for the weekly tv shows, they aren’t sitting down with the match producers to go their their matches until the day of.

It’s like starting out in a highly regimented college basketball program where the coach calls every single play from the sideline. Then their next step is the NBA where the players are largely expected to be able to follow the framework of the team’s system then making decisions and reading and reacting within the confines of that framework because they rarely get time to practice during the regular season.

If all you know is the narrow vision of basketball your college coach drilled into you then it’s going to be difficult to adapt when that system isn’t in place in the NBA.
