6. Build-A-Bear Feud

Last week, we saw Bayley and Alicia Fox tangle because Bayley offered a stuffed bear to Cedric Alexander, whom Fox had eyes on. This week, Alicia made sure to get her point across by massacring one of Bayley’s bears.

As silly as all of that was, it also should be noted that Bayley also has now beaten Fox easily two weeks in a row, leaving us with no real feud here – except in Alicia’s head. So what was the point of the backstory? Establish Alicia and Cedric as a couple? That could have been done with a backstage segment. It certainly couldn’t have been to give Bayley a new feud, unless we’re going the “defeated wrestler keeps demanding matches” route.

Is this the most offensive thing to come across our TV screens? Clearly not. But last week was a tick negative, and this week wasn’t any better. Please, just let this go.
