so Stephanie Vaquer appears (keyword: appears) to be injured, and the fact that i've heard nothing about it, idk what's going on or how severe it is.
but watching Raw last night, Vaquer came out to the ring in a walking boot and didn't give no answers.
all i know is that i got to the end of her promo and Vaquer said her injury won't stop her from wrestling, but her foot is in a walking boot though.

Big dimes Raquel saving the segment after she defaulted back to Spanish. (We speak ENGLISH in America)

She said she’d fight through the injury. But that was made worse by Raquel. Now we don’t know if she can. Maybe little Chiquita has a legit injury and needs a month or so off. This lets her go off TV but not relinquish the title. I expect “not medically cleared to be here tonight” next week

i'm sure there were some Mexican and Spanish speaking people in that audience, but the majority of the crowd is an indication that Brooklyn isn't bi-lingual and they don't speak Spanish like that.

agreed on the last part you said. This is America, you kind of have to speak English to be able to convey what you're trying to get over to the audience.

My hypothesis for whatever it's worth (probably nothing) is that the boot is just a cover for TV. Steph has a knee that regularly needs work done on it, whether if it needs to be drained or something needs to be shaved.
If it was major, it would've been vacated. This just seems like they're trying to keep the workload down so she can get through the Rumble and then coast until Mania.

but from every experience that i've ever had with anybody wearing a walking boot, they had it for no less than 6 months, so now i don't know if Vaquer will be back sooner or take time off, get some rest and then she'll be ok.

i do know that Raquel showed up and gave Vaquer a beatdown, and it looks like that's how they wrote Vaquer off of TV. But the part i'm confused about is, how long is Vaquer gonna be gone for?
because it seems to me like Vaquer is battling something now, whether it's an illness, sprained ankle or even a broken ankle, like that's the main reason why Stephh don't be on TV as much.

I think that after they wrote her off of TV, Vaquer may very well be out for at least 3 months, maybe even 4 months too. WWE's gonna have to take the Raw Women's World Championship Belt off of Vaquer, and this is what happens when WWE keep making the wrong calls. The universe has a funny way of working sometimes, and that's for WWE not taking the title off of Vaquer for both the chances they had to do so.

don't put the Raw Women's World Championship Belt on Raquel. there's no future in it, not for right now. I got nothing against Raquel, she's ok as a talent, but i just don't think she possesses the hot hand and the energy to be the World Champ, at least not yet, not when Nikki Bella has the hot hand and possesses the super energy to justify a run with the Raw WWC Belt.

Yeah I think they should keep Stephanie's promos down to the absolute bare minimum.
She should've just went out there and said 4 sentences, then Raquel should have shown up and did what she did

I think it's pretty obvious what's going on. They see Vaquer as a big player in the future, but everybody can tell this title run has been awful, and she's just not ready or over enough yet.
At the same time its also quite plain to see Liv is going to win the Rumble or the Elimination Chamber, and be in the title match at Wrestlemania.
If you go with Liv vs Steph at this point, you're going to straight up destroy Stephanie's career. Liv is way more over than her, way better at promos and way more charismatic. If you spend two months with them in the lead up to WM in a feud, Vaquer will get buried beyond belief, and then you basically are forced to have her win so she doesn't become Ivy Nile, but then you still have a champ who isn't over, can't talk, and puts the crowd to sleep until she hits the ass shake move.
So fake an injury for her, let Raquel win the title, you have the built in Liv vs Raquel storyline, and Raquel is already Liv's Jannetty like 3 times over, so you won't destroy her career by having her job. Vaq can take a few months off, focus on learning how to speak better, come back, destroy Raquel, and then you can get Liv vs Steph at Summerslam.

The reason this title run sucked was partly that she can't really promo (even though the japanese wrestlers had good title runs) but it was mostly on creative. Cody can promo too and his title run has been dogshit

They're in a loop with her creatively, because they can't give her any good feuds with girls she has to do more than outright bury in ring because she can't cut a promo, but she also can't just magically get good at promos, or get over if they never give her any good feuds.
I legit think they should have had her first feud be with Rhea. Rhea herself is terrible at promos, and just like Steph most of her overness is just "aura" and appearance based rather than any actual character work like Liv or Chelsea, so Steph wouldn't have been massivly exposed. They could have had a couple good matches, really established Steph as a main player by beating her, and it wouldn't have done anything negative to Rhea.
