Welcome back to wrestling world!
We have some interesting topics to dive into today concerning Aalyah as well as another
situation between miro and Lana
So let’s start things off with Aalyah
Aalyah has been making some reoccurring appearances on Raw over the last few weeks and the question
we kept asking was “what will her role be?”
Is she just making a few guest appearances or is she an official WWE on-screen character
now
Well we’re going on 4 weeks that aalyah has been on Raw and we might have just got
confirmation this week on aalyah’s first major storyline
Aalyah appeared once again at ringside for Dominik’s cage match with Seth Rollins
But there was one brief moment that happened after the match that everyone picked up on
and has everyone talking
After Seth Rollins wasn’t happy with Murphy’s work during the cage match, Rollins attacked
Murphy and left him laid out at ringside
While aalyah was walking inside the the ring to join the rest of her family, she paused
and rested her hand in Murphy’s shoulder to check on him
It was a short moment, but everyone picked up on what they were teasing here
WWE’s camera crew even took a picture of this moment and they published it on their
Raw gallery, which let’s us know that this is an important moment that we’re gonna
have to remember for down the line
So WWE seems to be teasing a relationship between Aalyah and Murphy.
There are a few things wrong with this possible relationship, so let’s get into that right
now
The obvious one that the fans noticed right away was the difference in age.
Even though it’ll just be an on-screen relationship, aalyah is 19 and Murphy is turning 32 in a
few weeks
So fans can’t help but point out the 13 year difference between this new possible
couple of Aalyah and Murphy
The age difference is definitely ginormous with a 13 year gap, so that’s one main issue
that fans pointed out immediately
But besides the age issue, there’s another storyline issue here as well that I think
doesn’t make any sense
Murphy is responsible and played a major role in Rey Mysterio’s massive eye injury, he’s
responsible for a majority of the things that happened to Dominik...he literally was second
in command to everything that happened to the Rey mysterio family over the last few
months
In what world does it make sense for Aalyah to go up and comfort Murphy?
I mean he literally was Seth Rollins’ main henchman that did all those horrible things
to the Rey Mysterio family
Literally the week before the cage match, Murphy was on the Titan-Tron talking about
all the things he was going to do to Dominik to make him pay
The Mysterio family, including Aalyah even closed out Raw that same week by hitting Murphy
literally 86 times with a kendo stick
So how does she go from hitting him 86 times with a Kendo Stick to feeling sorry for him
the very next week?
Doesn’t make sense and we need a good explanation for that
Seth Rollins’ little attack there on Murphy after the cage match was nothing compared
to the beat down Murphy got from aalyah and the mysterio family the week prior, so I really
don’t understand the mindset of aalyah’s character for checking up on Murphy like that
I don’t know about anyone else, but Seth Rollins abandoning Murphy doesn’t automatically
turn Murphy into a sympathetic character for me
It doesn’t erase all the horrible things that Murphy did to the Rey Mysterio family
Aalyah’s reaction should of been to just walk right past Murphy because he deserved
that attack
But for her to completely forget about everything he’s done to her family just because Seth
Rollins abandoned him seems like the most unexplainable writing decision in this story
so far
But maybe, that’s the idea that WWE is going for here
Maybe it’s a heel turn for Aalyah.
Maybe she’ll continue to flirt with Murphy and her family will confront her about it
and remind her about all the things that he’s done to them
Honestly, aalyah feeling bad for Murphy may be the only way to continue this feud with
a fresh story being thrown in
The overall feel I get from the community on social media is that the fans are burnt
out of the Mysterio Family vs Seth Rollins storyline and understandably so
It’s been going on since May and besides the new inclusion of Aalyah and Angie in recent
weeks, WWE hasn’t added much new things to the feud
It’s just been constant rematches between Dominik, Seth Rollins, and Murphy
So they either have to end the story here or maybe throw in that big Aalyah and Murphy
twist to freshen it up because I agree with the community, I think this entire feud is
starting to run on fumes
Even though the Aalyah and Murphy relationship is a bad idea because of the 13 year age difference
and the fact that it makes no sense storyline wise, at least it gives us confirmation that
Aalyah will be sticking around as a regular character
So we’ll see how her family addresses that Murphy moment in the future
——————————————
Miro, formally known as Rusev in the WWE, just made his return to pro wrestling with
AEW
It was a huge moment that went trending on social media and some of the words he said
during his promo picked up some attention as well
Miro recently spoke with “busted open radio” and I wanted to go over his comments that
he said there because I feel like the main thing that he was fearing just happened on
Raw this week
Miro discussed that he hopes his AEW appearance and career doesn’t hurt Lana’s WWE carrer
and they make her pay the price for it
He had this to say:
“Absolutely.
At the same time, they should be professional and treat it as it is.
It’s nothing personal, it’s a business.
Hopefully, they treat it like that.
I hope that it won’t hurt her.
I pray everything will be fine and we should move on.”
“You gather feelings over the years.
I’m usually positive and I never like to talk bad about anybody just because we’ve
all done bad stuff, but there’s a certain time where you’ve put all your heart and
story into certain things and you don’t feel like it’s coming to fruition for one
reason or another.
It was so disheartening over the years, so I have to — thanks to Chris [Jericho].”
“I told him my idea and he said, ‘You should say that about the brass ring.’
I was like, ‘do I ask for forgiveness after?’
He was like, ‘No, you don’t have to ask for anything, you just do it.
It’s a good promo.’
I was so shocked because it’s a different style.
It was important for me to say because I meant all of these things.
I needed to do one second to express my frustrations over the past ten years, then move on.“
Miro ended up doing exactly that with his AEW promo being filled with jabs towards WWE
A lot of fans often talk about AEW because they’re always taking these constant shots
at WWE and can never stop talking about them, but Jericho said that they felt like Miro
had to address where he was coming from and then leave it alone.
Miro won’t mention WWE on AEW television going forward
But the damage might have already been done.
So Miro’s fear was that WWE doesn’t take out their frustration with him on Lana...well
take a look at this week’s Raw
Lana took the loss for her match on Raw, was attacked after the match, and then was thrown
into the commentary table by Nia Jax
So is that a subtle little response to Miro by destroying his wife on WWE television,
making her lose the match and be thrown through a table just one week after his AEW debut?
I guess we won’t ever know for sure, but the way those events took place, it leads
many to believe that what happened to Lana on raw could relate to what miro was talking
about
There are a lot of couples in this same sort of situation.
One of them is in WWE, the other is in AEW, and it must make things so weird for the ones
that are in WWE
You’re here with WWE while your significant other is trashing the company on AEW, that’s
always gonna be an awkward situation right there
We’ll have to keep a close eye on Lana in these next few weeks.
If she continues to suffer the same fate as she did on Raw this past week then we might
know what’s up
But what are your thoughts on the tease between Aalyah and Murphy as well as how Lana was
treated after Miro’s debut?
Do you think Miro’s debut played a part in what happened to Lana?
