    Steph is most certainly NOT an all-time great in the ring or on the mic.

    She might be the most annoying character in wrestling history. She gloms on to everyone else’s heat, and always has.

    She's an all-time great heel in terms of the way people react to her. She plays that shrill, bitchy role as well as anyone ever has.

    Much better than expected. They've brilliantly debuted away from the talented women than the smart fans love, because they would've revolted if she came in and started beating them right away. Now she's built up some equity with the fans for when she she inevitably starts destroying our favorites.

    It'll still be interesting to see how certain cities receiver her when she's programing with the likes of Charlotta Flair or Sahsa Banks. It's going great to far and she's such a natural athlete that with the traning they have she should become great quickly. She doesn't have the luxury of having the "reps" some of her peers had with hundreds of matches in the "minor leagues" to prepare for TV, though.

    Completely disagree.

    She has “get off my TV heat,” or, as the man once said, “X-Pac Heat™.”

    Wow! Paige is the new GM for Smackdown. Interesting.

    They've got to do something with her instead of having her be the 3rd person who does nothing in a trio

    No doubt. However, did anyone predict that “something else” being the GM of Smackdown?

    Line of the year.

    They do the Ziggler thing with the cash-in right after Mania, but the ref's stalling was just ridiculous.

    There was a massive difference in reactions for those two cash-ins.
