Alucard Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 I know people have their favs but if Strowman/Bliss win its a big con. Pushing strowman down our throats week after week never loses unless its against Lesnar or Roman. Id like the tournament it be a bit more unpredictable. I figure Miz/Asuka have to win, considering Asuka made mention of her streak being on the line in their last match. Miz/Asuka vs Braun/Alexa HAS to be the final match. It's the semi-final in 2 weeks, the winners face the winner of either Roode/Charlotte or Rusev/Lana against the "second chance" team voted back in by the fans.

Migs Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Since they said the streak was on the line, Miz/Asuka have to win. Also I think their charity was Connor's Cure which everyone said was a ringer from the start. Braun/Alexa are the Connor's Cure team. Miz/Asuka are competing for Rescue Dogs Rock (which is a really terrific organization - my wife's very excited that she gets to cheer for the Miz and animal rescue charity all in one).

ragemaster Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 I think the charity angle is horrible exploitative crap, as its using the charity's names to make themselves look good. Unless they giving all the charity's the same amount of money anomalously, its should be up for Most disgusting promotional tactic award.

Victator Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 I hope Braun ends Asuka's "streak"*. Pushing strowman down our throats week after week never loses unless its against Lesnar or Roman. What is this our business. You got a Braun hating mouse in your pocket?*Feigning an injury to forfeit a belt is a loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officially they all get ten grand and the winner gets a hundred. So it'll go to their own front charity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Really not getting how a company actually donating to charity (multiple ones, at that) equals disgusting promotional tactic, when said companies are barely the focal point of the tournament. Like, for as much shit as the WWE gets for corporate shilling, complaining about an Actually Good project like the MMC seems rather unfair.

Like, for as much shit as the WWE gets for corporate shilling, complaining about an Actually Good project like the MMC seems rather unfair. Particularly when some of the charities (like Rescue Dogs Rock) are getting a nice promotional bump (some of them are way too big to get any benefit from the promotion, other than cash).

ragemaster Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Maybe overreacting on the charity thing, guess it depends on how open they are with the charity's. As long as they told the charity's before hand how much they getting and not telling them they all got a chance to get the hundred grand. Just find it weird when the results are worked that they claiming each charity has a chance at the money. When they all ready made there minds up who's getting it before it starts. Just seems a outdated and dishonest way to promote a wrestling show in 2018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 All the charties are getting $10k or something, and the winner gets the big purse. It's kind of carny as fuck to have the winner be the in house charity, but it's probably the best case scenario anyone could expect involving WWE.

SteveJRogers Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 I can see the outrage back when kayfabe was much more strict, especially when the in house charity looks like will come out on top. But since its an era of loose kayfabe, its probably a case of a necessary evil to base a satilite book (to use a comic book phrase to describe mini-series and other titles a character will star in besides what are considered his or her main titles) like storyline on charitable donations, because otherwise why would anyone involved do this in the middle of WrestleMania season, when you are pretty assured that the majority of the audience now understands and accepts that everything is pre-planned.

Is her streak legit or has WWE secretly been bumping it up as I never saw NXT so don't know how long she had been there for. If it is legit do they count house show matches for her streak?

If it is legit do they count house show matches for her streak? it's legit at least as far as her stint in the WWE goes, NXT included. they are not doing the goldberg approach of counting the number of matches she's been unbeaten, but instead going for years, which is way simpler.

With Coil Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Braun and Alexa are professional wrestling to me. I love these little and large tag teams. Kane has that shit nailed down with Waltman, Van Dam and Bryan as the odd partner. By far Kane's best contributions to wrestling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a few fans that wernt happy about WWE storylining Asuka's streak into this mixed tag Challenge. The only thing I don't like is WWE knows full well which charity is getting the biggest donation. I think they should all get the same prize.
