Is her injury that bad though?  If they were forced to do it, fair enough, but can't see them keeping her on the shelf that long.  It would be a wonderful story though if they were forced down that road.

I'm just hoping they're delaying rather than cancelling.  Put Becky/Rousey at TLC and put it in the main event.  f**k the brand split, there's no-one on either roster that deserves to take the title off either of them, so just have them face each other.

Dunno mate. We all know WWE and concussion history. Add in that it looks like a shattered eye socket rather than a broken nose and it could keep her out for a few months.

If they won't take the risk on her working injured then build anticipation for her.

Let's remember how WWE first introduced her in NXT, with a winning Riverdance gimmick that definitely was main event. 
Just shows that good workers will overcome if given the chance. Austin overcame The Ringmaster, Becky overcame the Riverdancing shit.
Incidentally whoever came up with the Riverdancing gimmick should be beaten and fired.

Ryback would have a point if Big Dave was calling for her to be fired, but for all the shite he spouts, he's not wrong in what he says.  Jax went up too early, and either she got too carried away and didn't mean to do it, or she did.  Neither is a good look, and both of them should result in at least her going down to NXT and spending some time out of the spotlight.  She's capable of decent matches, but she's not ready for the spot they want her in.

She's always been good, but since that raft of female stars came through NXT, through Paige showing that there was something other than models turned wrestlers, through Bayley and Sasha tearing the place up, through them all getting called up (except Becky), through the move from Divas to Women, through "HISTORIC" match after historic match, hell in a cell, extreme rules, etc, I don't think anyone has ever looked as damn good as she has these past few weeks.  She can go in the ring, she can go on the mic, and from the looks of Twitter she can go fucking anywhere.

They'd be mental not to strap a rocket to her and let her take this women's division even further.

Are wrestlers a unique bunch that get so, so pissy when non-wrestlers critique them?
Just about any other walk of sport/entertainment/performance has pundits and critics, yet wrestlers are so fucking sensitive when anyone dares to question their craft.

Not even that, Alvarez IS a wrestler!

Ryback is just a pissy arsehole because Nia Jax is taking the flak for the exact same shit he was doing habitually a few years back.

In other news, this feud is both spectacular and already has the potential to get nuclear before either have even really laid a glove on each other in a match.

Think WWE will tell them both to tone it down a bit on Social media but they shouldn't. Why shouldn't the lines be blurred and make folk go 'oh f**k, hang on a minute is this legit'?

Rousey is a 100% legit main-eventer and someone who puts arses on seats and eyes on screens. Becky Lynch is a bawhair away from it as her stock is exploding and will continue to do so. Let the two of them go at it and sling all the shit each other's way. Amazing that only a few years ago, women's matches, even the better ones were the piss breaks at shows.

Who in their right mind would have ever thought that Daniel Bryan winning the WWE championship would happen and nearly no-one would even be talking about it because all the talk is of a women's match that isn't happening?!

I’m sure I read somewhere that it was Becky who proposed it first.
