Mae Young Classic Womens Tournament

[Lock Jaw]

WWE had their own bullying incident recently involving Mauro and JBL with others. End result for both was the bully winning in the end. Baszler won her match and JBL wasn't punished and kept his spot on Smackdown Jazzy is pretty much a better version of what WWE has been trying to do with Nia Jax.

I have also only seen the first episode so far:

SPOILER: show

I feel like Jazzy Gabert would have been the much better "monster" to advance in the tournament, but Shayna Baszler got the nod due to who she knows and who they can cut to watching in the crowd.

Otherwise Zeda seems like she would have been perfect to advance. Chinese market, hot, energetic entrance, a story you can get behind.

Abbey seemed "alright", but looked like she was shot by Homer Simpson's makeup gun so I found that distracting.

So basically what I'm saying is those two results should have been switched and probably would have been if Shayna didn't come with Ronda Rousey watching in the crowd.
