The bitch got an ego so big it's killing the company. She had 20 minutes in the opening, center and ending of the show. Yes, ONE HOUR OF GODDAM STEPHANIE MCMAHON ON MY SCREEN.

She talks to the wrestlers like they are some jobbers. She made sheamus and Big Show look like jokes. She randomly slapped Cena when no other heel wrestlers had the guts to do a thing about cena rambling.

And she can't fuckin act. Urrrrr I force on the words becauseerrrrrr im evilrrrrrrr

HHH talks and buries just as much, why no heat on him? Stephanie wouldn't look so bad if the guys on the roster actually had good mic skills and could go toe to toe with her. They don't. She made "Show" and Sheamus look like dorks because they are, Sheamus came out cracking cheesy lines as usual. Same thing with Cena's replies to her and HHH, cheesy and pandering, so she calls him out. If she tried that on Punk, Rock or Heyman it would be a different story. Punk buried them in his pipebomb and like a month before he left with one of his promos in the ring.

Didn't work out too well for Dusty Rhodes.

I'm sick of Triple H and Steph putting themselves over at the expense of the wrestlers. Rollins, the supposed top heel, was practically invisible the whole night.

I'd enjoy Stephanie a little bit more if there was someone to actually stand up to her physically. If her and AJ had a feud, or if the guys could just hit a quick finisher on her, it'd make sense but since she's untouchable, there will be no pay off and she'll just be an annoying pest that's always around.

My feelings exactly. I've been a big fan of hers since 1999 but this year has totally turned me against her. Overexposed, stealing the spotlight, and booked way too strong for a non-wrestling character. Her hammy acting is fun in small doses but it becomes so annoying when she's getting all this screen time.

She's doing stuff that the wrestlers should be doing. Slapping Cena like she did last night should be Rollins or somebody punching him in the mouth mid-promo instead. Her calling out Cena on his pandering bullshit is material better suited for one of Cena's opponents. She made Rusev and Lana look like geeks last week. She's the only person allowed to awknowledge the CM Punk chants while everyone else just takes it. This year she also had one of the longest womens matches in PPV history that recieved a main event build-up while the actual divas division is treated like a joke.

I hope she's pregnant cause she needs to get off tv as soon as possible.

Who gives a shit if she's good on the mic or not? This isn't 2000 anymore, it's 2014 and soon to be 2015 and in my own humble opinion Stephanie along with HHH shouldn't even be reverent today. The fact that they are shows me just how delusional and self-serving they are and just how awful there going to be at managing things once Vince passes away.

the whole point of the character is to hate her so much you want to see someone..anyone beat the crap out of her.
And they never do. She even had a match this year where she squashed her opponent for 10 minutes and won the match.

The only time she's gotten her comeuppance was earlier this year with Vickie, and that was clearly a special case since it was Vickie's last segment with the company.

Probably going to have to deal with it until WM when all the cards in the deck are revealed and it will be McMahon vs The Authority with the Authority finally losing. I can't think what kind of format they would have here but I would love for McMahon to pick Ambrose as his guy and for HHH to pick Lesnar who no longer has the title at this point, or Rollins as his guy, that way we get a Rollins/Ambrose match at WM and it'll get a good 20 mins maybe more as the secondary main event.

I've actually been thinking about making a thread on this for a while now, but I agree. To me, Stephanie just doesn't have it anymore.

Back in the early 2000's she was a fantastic heel. Just that whiny personality with the screechy voice, it was easy to hate her and she did an excellent job at playing a heel.

Now she is this different heel persona and I get that as you gotta change with the times, but at least for me, it just doesn't work. It just feels forced with her anymore, especially when she tries to emphasize words and it comes across as nothing more than annoying, and not in a good way.

I don't mind Triple H's recent mic work as I feel that most of the time he is intentionally trolling us and trying to annoy us, we know how good the guy can actually work the mic. Stephanie on the other hand, I don't know. It's been the same with her for quite some time.

It just seems like she's trying too hard to be her dad, to be the next evil McMahon in power and it's showing. With Vince, it almost came naturally, just way he carried himself and the way he delivered his promos. Yes he was over the top more times than not, but with him it worked. With Stephanie it's doing anything but working.

Anytime Steph picks up the mic anymore I just cringe and not in a good way where she's doing a good job at playing a heel. But in a way where I just feel uncomfortable watching and listening to her. There are rumors that after Survivor Series, she will be written off of tv for a while. Hopefully this is true and she can come back sometime down the line fresh and better because this Stephanie just isn't doing it for me.

I disagree.

I absolutely love Triple H and Steph as heel authority figures. They are doing a great job IMO. Raw would suck without them. I cant go back to another boring GM run. I would much rather have Steph insult wrestlers over a boring ass Laurinitis or stupid Teddy Long and his Tag team matches or annoying Vicki Guererro, Anonymous RAW gm who used to run show by sending messages on a fuckin laptop... or the horrible guest hosts who dont even know what they are talking about.

These guys are the best heel authority figures there can be right now.

Daniel Bryan is not there, Lesnar is not there, Orton is not there, "the next big thing" Roman Reigns is not there. Apart from the Dean Ambrose vs Wyatt, there would be absolutely nothing interesting if it wasn't for the Authority.

What she does on Raw doesn't annoy me. What annoys me is how she clearly wants WWE to be for soccer moms, judging by Twitter. She also says she's an "evil person on TV" there, which really annoys me.

Steph was tolerable back in the early 2000s because people actually had a chance to get their own back on her, making it believable there was some kind of end game. She was a great heel back then.

Now she's in a high position of authority (non-kayfabe) and she gets to act all sanctimonious on the camera without any sign of rebuttal from the roster. That's not a good heel, it just makes me wish she was off my screen and get back to doing her marketing schtick for families and children in the board room.

She's a demeaning, stuck up, over-enunciating ('I. LOVE. TO. SPEAK. REALLY. SLOWLY. TO. MAKE. MY. POINT.') stupid twat who needs to be taken down a peg or two. Will never happen as long as her daddy and husband are there to watch her back. Can't wait until the demon spawn inside her grows so she can fuck off my TV screen.

Yeah, her shtick's gotten stale and boring at this point. I know men can't attack women anymore, but it's a shame someone like Cena or Ziggler can't just "pay off" Kharma or some power Diva to make a special one-time appearance to beat the fuck out of her. That'll never happen though because 1. she's not taking big bumps anymore and 2. WWE creative is definitely not creative enough to come up with something like that.

Steph has not become the kind of heel I want to see lose, but rather the type I want to see less of going forward. Trips and Steph just take too much personal time out of the product. They need to take a step back and be more concise.

Young interesting talents like Rollins, Rusev, and Lana are doing nice work. The positive side of a future product lies with people like them. They should not be drowned out by people who are overbearing and have drawn as much interest to the product as they are ever going to.

I remember the days when Steph was hot as hell with huge jugs on display and legs for days, now shes just an irritating whiny kid and Triple H is no better. Lets get these goons off of our screens. Hopefully Ryback will run through "team authority" this sunday FREE on the WWE network.

edit : Stephs still hot don't get me wrong, but she used to show way more... love to the fans, thats all i'm saying
