She looked horrible tonight. I put her right up there with Charlotte as far as her work rate, which is not very good. Sorry guys, I just don't see it. Lot of bodies in that division look like GLOW rejects.
It's hard to look good wrestling Brie with only how many minutes?
She has a good body of work down in NXT. That's not entirely on her, because she had some very talented partners, but she can certainly work in a big match scenario given how high expectations often were for the NXT Women's Championship matches.
Uhm what? You're judging her work rate on a 5 minute match with Brie Bella of all people. So her 20-30 minute matches with Bayley down at NXT count for nothing then? I think you need to educate yourself before coming out with statements like that.

Yeah not buying the hype agree OP. Her look is flat, her theme is flat. She is an amazing worker. But from a sports entertainer pov, Paige shits over her in every facet. In the ring, on the mic, even in commentary. I don't buy this her being a star, she ain't even relevant. She beat poor Bri, who should of gone over. And has not been on any major ppv. She has been part of a failed divas revolution. Paige won the divas title on her first night. I mean tell me one significant thing Sasha has done? You can't because their is none. OVERRATED.
You have no idea what you're talking about. That was one of the best matches on the show. Brie did nothing wrong and Sasha looked great since she got to dominate.

It was under five minutes so I wouldn't call it anything above average, but she hardly looked horrible. There's only a handful of women that could have a good match with Brie in the first place.
She's not overrated at all, It's just that so many people are putting her on a pedestal to the point where it could ultimately hurt her career, especially if she is never given the chance to show how good she is on the main roster.
You're basing your entire opinion of her on one 5 minute match against Brie Bella, completely ignoring all the amazing stuff she did on NXT which she hasn't had the chance to do on the main roster yet, believe the hype, she is without doubt the most talented diva on the roster and at her best one of the best stars on the whole roster
People love to bitch and moan about how the MR girls are useless, but when the precious NXT girls finally come up and perform the exact same (...or worse) there's all these excuses.
People overrate her because she has a vagina. If Sasha were a man putting on the same matches she does, nobody would take any notice. She's not as good as the men.
When there are 2 women's matches the spotlight always go to the one a champion is involved. She's not even allowed to do anything much yet. Charlotte was planned to become a champion since her debut she's allowed to do so much more. I don't think Sasha's the best and all but she's no where near horrible especially to judge base on these filler matches.
All of you naysayers are just a bunch of haters dammit!
Nobody has got more swagger, better promo skills and you sure as hell can't expect her to have a good match in the space of 5 minutes with Brie Bella of all people.
It's only a matter of time until she's on top of that throne :sasha3
That match was pure suckage. I don't understand the appeal.
And the "oh it was a short match" bullshit excuse don't work. Do you known what happens when you have a short match? YOU SPEED IT UP! You turn it into a brawl and start kicking ass. Sasha spent the whole thing...walking slowly. I shit you not.
These NXT bookers must be working fucking miracles.

Yep, this is exactly what I'm talking about. I haven't seen NXT, so I have no idea how she did there. All I know is she didn't know how to make the most of the 5 minutes they did give her. A lot of strutting around, looking for the crowd reaction without actually working for it -- had nothing to do with how good or bad Brie is. I'm not buying the 'she needs a longer match' argument or that Brie is a horrible worker -- a good worker can make a crappy one look good. She looked marginally better than Charlotte (who I thought was just plain awful last night), and that's as far as I'll go.
She had a few good matches in NXT, so the smarks wanted to feel like they're "getting the word out on Sasha Banks" by overrating every single thing she does. She's been mediocre at best, on the main roster.
The crowd popped more when Paige appeared for 2 seconds in the backstage segment with Becky than when Sasha won her actual match. And Pittsburgh is supposedly a smark crowd. Was really surprised by that. Even Brie got audible cheers (though granted mixed with boos) during their bout.
Sasha IS overrated. But then so is Charlotte. And Paige. And Nikki. And everyone else at some point. The difference is she seems to believe her own hype.
