RUMOUR: Asuka's English Is Causing Her Push?

Yes, people, this is an actual speculation. From Mike Johnston on the PWinsider elite audio show, he basically said that WWE doesn't have a storyline for her currently to which good old Dave Meltzer replied (Transcript via Ringside news):

“Oh there’s tons for her right now, he just doesn’t want to — she doesn’t speak good English, I mean say what you want but that’s the bottom line. If she spoke good English I think she would be getting more. He wants you to be able to cut promos.”

What do I think of this? Look, when you're a WWE performer or a professional wrestler for that matter, having good or decent promo skills is a must but Asuka is one of those wrestlers who can be great just by her demeanour alone and if Asuka or Andrade "Cien" Almas for example in NXT has taught me is that you don't really need to be fluent in English in order to grab the fan's attention. 

What do you guys think about this? Sound off in the comments below and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE RAW 7/1/19 | My Coherent Review

My first RAW review of 2019 and surprisingly, this show was decent. Now, would RAW put on decent shows in the coming weeks or months? Probably not but I hope that's the case. Now, usually on my RAW and Smackdown Live reviews, I give my thoughts on what's good, what's ok and what bad ( click here if you curious as to how the format looks like). However, since this is the new year, I'm gonna get rid of that and instead just put my in-depth thoughts just like my PPV reviews. Without further ado, on with the review.  Opening Segment The show itself started off with a brawl between Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley that lasted for a very short period of time. After that’s done, the opening segment started with John Cena and cuts a promo on how he’s gonna earn his golden ticket to Wrestlemania by entering in this year’s Royal Rumble match.  Out came Drew McIntyre and he said that Cena’s accomplishments is what Drew cares about. He then went on how he’s b...

WWE Smackdown Live 18/6/19 | My Coherent Review.

Another win for WWE main roster TV. This was a very good show and it's because of those shows, I'm actually excited for Stomping Ground. Click here if you wanna read my review for Monday Night RAW last night.  Opening segment.  This show kicked with The New Day while I really like The New Day, them opening Smackdown feels repetitive at this point but it is what it is. Xavier Woods started to promote Kofi's match with Dolph this coming Sunday.  When Big E was about to reveal what he's going to do on the final hour, Dolph Ziggler showed up and said that Kofi doesn't deserve to be champion and how he relies on The New Day for his success. Kofi Kingston said "hold up, hold up" and mentions that he's been in a cage but in a different cage aka the Elimination Chamber and promises Ziggler that he's going to defeat the show-off.  Dolph Ziggler replied by saying that he's gonna beat Kofi and that title should be his. The way Zi...

WWE RAW Season Premiere | A Coherent Review.

Monday Night RAW got a new intro and it's fantastic not gonna lie.  Shout out to NF for that absolute club BANGER of a song.  I can already hear the rage from people just because it isn't a rock song.  How was the "season premiere" of Monday Night RAW?  It was not good. As a matter of opinion, it was a baddddd show.  I can tell from watching this that Vince McMahon tore up the script AGAIN and wrote the entire thing moments before the show goes on the air.  It's like if a movie was about to start shooting only for the director to tear up the entire thing and write it from the ground up.   pictures via WWE.com The Season Premiere Of Monday Night RAW Kicked Off With……….. Alexa Bliss calling out The Fiend, Bray Wyatt. Just as Bliss had a blank stare, Out came The Fiend.  The Fiend and Bliss were interrupted by Retribution.  Bray Wyatt and Alexa Bliss disappeared after Retribution tried to attack them.  The Hurt Business has some unfini...
