Also has begun working stiffer. And yes, I'm particularly a fan of her dropkick and the way she smoothly transitions into the single leg Boston crab. Much improved.

I'm glad you brought this up because I've wanted to say that she has gotten a lot better in the past few months, but usually if you try to talk positively about any of the women, it gets shut down fast. ^^() She's not amazing, but I have noticed improvements and I do think she should get some credit for that. Bryan has probably helped a lot, but hey, whatever works. I still can't quite get behind her as a face because they come off too sorority girl for me, but if someday they split the two or her sister left and she stayed and changed up her character, I think I could support her. She at least feels like she's trying more than some of the others. Okay, I'm done now.

HI BRIE
I know you read these forums, you have to. :mark:
_______
Yea I was actually legitimately surprised that she used a few different submission manoeuvres in the ring like a few days after I suggested she did so to seem a bit more believably strong in the ring. I dunno if she really reads the forums, I doubt it of course, but it was a real coincidence :lol.
Brie is fairly underrated. Can't say too much about Nikki because she hasn't wrestled in a long time because of her injury and on the most recent Raw she played the defensive of the team to get Brie to look like more of a threat to AJ.
I think Brie can work really well as a submissionist (like I've said before) and she should stick more proper submissions - not restholds - on her opponents and try to pick a limb and work on it for the match a la Del Rio.
Maybe the arm, and use the Yes! Lock or something to be honest. It would probably help get the fans behind her and it makes sense seeing as the WWE are using their relationship anyway.
There are some things she does in the ring that are really weird/unfitting imo. Her signature knee strike on the ropes is a bit iffy because it doesn't seem strong, and the positioning of the opponent is always awkward.

Agreed, I think she's a joy to watch in the ring, her look helps a lot but still, she's very smooth.

No she's not, all the divas suck equally in the ring at least in my eyes. Diva match = piss break and that's not gonna change anytime soon.

Brie is alright in the ring. Nothing spectacular. Her matches would've gotten a better reaction if she'd been turned properly.
That definitely needed more work and that's where creative dropped the ball completely. She's done well with what she's been given. I really enjoyed her trying to work the crowd in the match. It was really well done.

You bring up an excellent point. She didn't really have a proper face turn. It does seem like people are starting to get into her though. I've been impressed by how well her work has been.
