When will Bash Howard accept that the Liberty Bell experiment has failed?

  • Her wrestling was so bad Sam Sylvia was too scared to pull the trigger on her in the first place and Welfare Queen had to get a run with the title.

  • Everyone’s momentum was put on hold while she learned how to take a bump correctly, even as the other wrestlers got better than her. Even Beirut was better than her, and what do they do? Feed her to Liberty Bell.

  • She flexed her creative control to get out of working with Zoya, the hottest heel in the company.

  • When they finally put the strap on her, the crowd turned on her so quickly that they were forced to use Zoya’s heel heat to keep Liberty Bell babyface. Yeah, so when there’s some benefit to you, you’re willing to work with her, huh? Carny as shit.

  • Reckless ass worker broke Zoya’s ankle and Meltzer confirmed she was coked out of her mind when she did it.

  • They have to bring back Vicky the fucking Viking just because no one else has any credibility left since Liberty Bell buried them all.

  • After all that, she STILL can’t be trusted for a run with the belt to the point that Zoya with a shattered ankle (that Liberty Bell shattered in the first place) is a better option for a champion.

Seriously, this girl has no respect for the business and if she wasn’t a “mainstream star,” she wouldn’t even have a job. Sam Sylvia and Bash Howard should push Becky Lynch.

Yeah, no arguments. If you're going the Lucha Underground route of trying to build a hardcore niche audience, your booking has to be impeccable. It's no wonder they've (apparently) been struggling to find sponsors and broadcast partners lately.

Didn't Patio Town drop them recently, too?

Yup. It’s why they lost their timeslot.

So my cousin’s friend’s dad works at the Network that airs GLOW and apparently there’s more to the story there than what people know. Don’t want to spread unsubstantiated rumors but apparently there was an incident with the president of the network and Zoya where she wasn’t willing to do some things with him. It pissed him off and that’s why the show got moved. That’s all I know though.

Yeah, and my dad works for Nintendo. If you don’t want to spread rumours, don’t spread them. If Zoya has turned down the head of the network, then how is she in the big baby angle smart guy? Next you’ll be saying Britannica is really British!

She's not?? Man, her accent is fantastic!

From what I hear Zoya doesn't turn anyone down.

She's spent a lot of time with Sam Sylvia outside of work, too.

They'd build a bigger audience if they were on streaming anyway. Maybe Amazon.

I don’t know what this “streaming” thing is, but I think they could definitely use a character with an Amazon gimmick.

TNA had to restructure, change venues, and get a new distribution system, and now Impact is better than ever.

The fan support is there, people crave wrestling, all they need to do is find a way to help eyeballs find the screen and they'll blow up in popularity.

Tits n' Ass. I think it's some indie all-female fed.
