WWE Stomping Grounds: 8 Things We Learned

1. Becky Lynch Needs To Be Less Vocal

Guiding a main roster newbie through important pay-per-view matches and calling spots discreetly must be difficult for Becky Lynch. No-one can deny her in-ring cred, nor the fact that Becky is rightfully directing traffic against Lacey Evans. Still, as biting as it may seem coming from a fan, she needs to stop talking so loudly.

Or, WWE need to watch their mic levels and camera shots so they don't constantly catch Bex pre-empting the next sequence of her match. That happened at least eight or nine times at Stomping Grounds, and it's impossible to stay invested in the atmosphere of the fight when someone sounds like they're running drills at the Performance Center.

It might be unpopular to criticise someone so wonderfully talented, over and relevant, but Becky can't keep giving the game away even when she's in there with those less-experienced.

Again, WWE could help more here. They don't seem arsed that their premier female star is loudly (oh so loudly) calling the next spot on camera, and that's not acceptable. This must stop, and soon, before it becomes more problematic.
