Gonna turn out to be another Brodus Clay situation.

As seen on WWE programming, the company has been continuously delaying the re-debut of Emma as Emmalina for months now. Every week they have been airing a video package that prolongs her return.

We have now been told that the company doesn't plan to have her return to RAW until the Royal Rumble. Plans for her return have been changed several times. There were plans at one point to pair her back up with Dana Brooke and other plans called for her to have a feud with Sasha Banks. It looks like neither of those may happen.

Just send Emma to Smackdown already. Becky/Emma vs Alexa/Mickie could provide a sweet series of feuds.

Later on Alexa and Emma can eventually complete seperate turns. It's better than Emma being a set up person for Charlotte.

I would be totally fine with them continuing to troll the audience if they'd just find a different way to do it. The Instagram vignettes are old. Make her do a video package or find another way to keep it interesting if you're not going to debut her yet.

She is going to end up getting X-Pac heat with this gimmick though.

I wonder if this is the 2017 version of the Brodus Clay debut. That when she finally debuts, she will be so far away from what anyone is expecting that the rib will be on the audience. Perhaps as a hardened combat artist, like the UFC champion who defeated Ronda Rousey. No makeup like the other women, no flashy attire, hair in corn rows...a destroyer.

Clunky mic work aside, I thought it was an interesting angle. It kinda broke the fourth wall, with a performer basically ditching her scripted persona and character and reverting to who she was to begin with.

Remember when Mosh gave up on the Beaver Cleavage character live on TV in the Attitude Era? Or when Dustin Rhodes came out and totally buried the Seven character in Russo's WCW heyday? I got those kinda vibes last night from Emma. She could come out on Raw next week and totally rip into the "powers that be" over trying to mold her into something she isn't.

She's too talented of an in-ring performer to just shelf her again.

Maybe they should wait Paige to recover from her neck injury and redebut Emma with her as the ''oldtime ladies''.:lol

It was clear when she was supposed to debut and they changed it last minute that they had no idea what to do with her, her heel gimmick was awesome and never really got started unfortunately. here is to hoping that when she does finally re debut they use her correctly and not just job her out to Sasha/Charlotte/Bailey
