Poor Kyra didn’t realize the big pile she just stepped into. Nerves are still raw, girl.
LAST DAY!
Thanks to everyone for your support. Today’s the last day, let’s see if we can’t hit some of these Stretch Goals!
Oh, ouch. Sun’s really hurting. I was afraid of this.
Kyra’s leading with some fairly bratty antagonism, and then backpedaling immediately to being friendly when it blows up in her face. I’d say that’s a fine line she’s trying to walk, but I’m not actually sure that the line exists. Did she just feel like being mean, and wasn’t prepared for the possibility of consequences?
I hope Yvonne views her as Dumbest Goon. She doesn’t appear to have the potential for much else.
Kyra might be smarter and possibly crazier than we’ve seen, she might have risked being ninja’d to get to make a point about a large portion of the fan base.
She also points out that both Sun AND ‘Brina have better records than she does, which doesn’t sound too antagonistic to either Sun or Brina.
I think krya’s jealous of sabrina myself. she’s been working hard at being Sun’s bestie but knows she can’t compare to brina in that regard so she acts catty towards brina generally and generally tries to make her look bad when she can. now that brina is in DI herself she feels her best shot is gone now.
brina ends up being the one to get these pushes while kyra who’s been here longer can’t get a foot in the door as far as main eventing. so she’s glad anytime brina fails but talks before she thinks sometimes and blurting this out to sun didn’t turn out how she wanted it which gets sun mad with her so kyra loses even more ground to Sabrina.
add in how she apparently has the worst record in RA and kyra’s desperate to be better at something than someone at this point.
Remember that Kyra doesn’t know that Sabrina pulled the plug on Ultradragon, and she knows the circumstances around the loss,. They were expecting Rose, but got Brenda.
Kyra WAS being a little mean though. Her and Sabrina have always been rough on each other.
“Hey, you and your best friend just lost a big match! I see you’re upset! Let me kick you while you’re down a little and insult someone you care about! Oh, I didn’t realize you’d get upset at ME when I’m devising whole new levels of insensitivity!”
Kyra was so wrapped up in her glee about Sabrina’s hashtag trending, she completely missed all the signs that Sun was upset.
However, all that other stuff about kicking while down…yeah, that’s Kyra.
That’s the difference between being oblivious and being a sadist, yeah.
Or between being oblivious and being a champ *grins
Champions are inherently self-absorbed douchebags? Well, I’ve never thought that, but you would be the one to know…
*courtly bow*
Not actually meant to get you, mind. That’s just what you said, and considering who it’s coming from…
Actually, I had a good discussion with a friend of mine about the perception of some champions. Take Tom Brady, for instance. He’s got multiple MVP’s, super bowl rings, records, etc. To be a world class athlete, you have to wake up every morning and BELIEVE that you are the best and that translates into everything you do from all day training to hanging out with your family. It very well be, or at least appear that they are in fact, self-aborbed douche bags.
I’m familiar with the champion’s mentality. There’s a difference between being self-absorbed, and being a self-absorbed douchebag. A champion is often too concerned about what he’s doing to pay proper attention to others. A self-absorbed douchebag, on the other hand, is too busy trying to tear down others to prop up their own fragile self-esteem to notice when people don’t enjoy that. Miles apart, superficial similarity.
Well, No one can say Kyra is good with her timing. Gal could have just got herself Ninja’d. Though I can’t help but feel she’s right about the fans
She is about SOME of the fans. If you ever look at comments regarding a combat fighter’s loss on social media, they are just out and out deplorable, cynical and trolly.
I think gravity’s failing for Sun.
This… Seems about par for the course for Kyra, if we’re going to be honest. She really does seem to be the dimmest lightbulb in DI, doesn’t she?
I imagine Kyra’s always been last in line when it comes to the pecking order in DI With Nikki as Yvonne’s second in command and even the York sisters above her before they split from the group. She probably thought with the sisters gone she’d move up in the order with any new blood being behind her, then Sun comes along and sort of becomes Yvonne’s “enforcer” putting the lie to that assumption. Okay, she deals with that, but the fact that even Sabrina instantly appears to be considered higher status than Kyra as soon as she joined probably didn’t sit well with her, hence her bratty antagonism towards Ultragirl.
That’s about a good a reason as any that I could think of. Kyra was the one to first reach out to Sun about joining Damage Inc. With Nikki on maternity leave, she probably thinks there is an opening for 2nd in command.
Sun’s face in the first few pics looks like something out of Peanuts. 😉
Yes. That is a clever nod to the classic comic strip. 🙂
Aw, thanks. She is feeling like Charlie Brown right about now.
It is nice to have someone there for you. To bad that someone doesn’t have tact.
But I’m sure Sun will come out tomorrow…
Yeah, the Sun also rises.
Sun’s coming out? Wow! Where did that come from?
Hopefully she’ll come out already and start dating Brina…
Bet your bottom dollar.
Could of had someone better bring Sunshine back to reality. But hopefully now that she is back she can finally do something about it.
Kyra did succeed in that, didn’t she? 😉
I wouldn’t have expected Kyra to back off so quick, but Sun’s temper is well known in the locker room.
The pecking order is adjusting a little. That will make for small quakes.
Kyra’s is taken aback by Sun’s ‘sensitive’ attitude. Kyra figured that some good natured ribbing in the face of a loss was needed. Will Sun tell Kyra that they’re no longer a team?
Goldfish? Really? Can’t say I noticed that much. This might say more about the focus of their attention, maybe?
Kyra’s wrestling is like a cheap comedy show, a series of one liners with no point, timed for commercials. (Meow!)
I think about how much backlash that Ronda got after her defeat. A lot of haters came out. In this day and age, it’s impossible to avoid it if you’re in the public eye.
Yeah or look what happened to me after my belt was stolen. But one gets a thick skin after a bit.
Even so, you don’t see Kyra Gold trying her shenanigans around me so she’s probably not a natural blond. Just say’n 😉
I’m waiting for Callie to come along and say “Maybe it’s the smell.” Any time now…
ok it’s official. Sabrina is definitely not the john cena of RA as had been argued in the past. she’s clearly dean ambrose now given her new hashtag. I mean is it in ambrose’s contract to lose at least 90% of all PPVs or something since he lost the US title and moved up out of the midcard?
I’m okay with that comparison on the grounds that I like Dean Ambrose, and I like Renee Young, and I like them even more that they are an item. So, yay. 😀
and now you can watch them both on the new season of Total Women! (or does the title change not change the show name ;P )
should be funny since I hear ambrose hates social media and keeps his personal life personal
Dean was on the Network show, TABLE FOR 3 and he was easily the most introverted of the 3. I think he was with Cesaro and Owens? But yeah, it totally shows.
Well I mean, that trending hashtag’s not WRONG…
Gold has evaded Sabrina but she’s won a few big matches. Peyton had that stigma until he did win one, but that’s the real trick, isn’t it?
And Ultradragon is one of the strongest tag teams… by pulling the plug she is taking out her quickest way to gold too…
Also she is making the mistake of thinking that somehow tag team division is inferior or worth less than single… *tsk tsk* Sabrina has a lot to learn
She does have a lot to learn, especially that bit about being one of the strongest tag teams.
As luck would have it, there are a few more pages this chapter…
