Edge & Christian reviewed the Tables, Ladders and Chairs Pay-Per-View on their podcast: E&C’s Pod Of Awesomeness. Edge admitted that he doesn’t really get the hype behind Asuka when speaking about her debut match against Emma.

Here is what Edge had to say about Asuka’s debut and

“I’m sure I’ll get lambasted for this, but I don’t get the Asuka thing. I really don’t. Like, she’s fine and she’s solid but I don’t know,”

Christian says that sometimes when there is a lot of hype, it is difficult to live up to. He also says he really liked Asuka’s body language, presentation and persona in her debut.

Edge explained more of his opinion on Asuka:

“Even going back to the NXT stuff I’ve watched and I’ve never… I don’t know… I’ve just never really bought in. And it’s not because I don’t want to or anything like that. I just, I don’t know. Even the entrance and everything it’s very Nakamura-esk and he was doing it first so it just, I don’t know. I’ve never really understood the hype and then last night as I’m watching [at TLC] and I know the ‘powers that be’ hate the head-to-head thing and I was like, ‘ooo that’s not gonna go over well’… more than that what I didn’t get was using an ankle lock on a night when Kurt Angle is stepping back in a WWE ring for the first time in eleven years and it’s actually being used in the main event as something pretty pivotal. Why do you do it as a spot that goes nowhere? That doesn’t lead to anything that leads to kinda getting pitched outa the ring that leads to a trapped-leg German, okay cool but still didn’t lead to anything consequential to the finish. It didn’t make sense to me and those things that I see and I’m like ‘mmm somebody doesn’t get it,’ you know what I mean? Ah…maybe I’m being a d*ck… I don’t know.”

Certainly an interesting take, what do you think?
