After a week off from the Emmalina vignettes, they’re back this week on Raw (Feb. 6, 2017) to advertising the Australian superstar’s re-debut for Raw next week. But pardon me if I don’t hold my breath.
That’s because this isn’t the first time they advertised Emmalina’s return. First they did it on Dec. 5, 2016 for the follow week. That didn’t happen. Then they went back to advertising her for the much vaguer “coming soon.” And it looks like soon is next week’s Raw... unless it’s not.

Stop messing with me, WWE twitter! You’ve burned me too many times!
WWE has cried wolf on Emmalina enough that until she’s in the ring, I’m going to take even previews that say “next week” with a grain of salt. It just hurts too much otherwise.
This would be a perfect time to bring her back though. There’s plenty of time until WrestleMania to get her settled into something for the big show. Plus the division is feeling a bit thin with only champion Charlotte, Bayley, Sasha Banks, and Nia Jax as major players. But that could just be me convincing myself that this will actually happen.
What do you think, Cagesiders? Will the debut actually happen next week?
