Let's be clear: Most of us expected more intensive and full of surprises RAW and SmackDown! Live! NXT is a different story. On Monday we had a sort of Championship celebration and a chance given to someone. On Tuesday we get another interrupted celebration, tag team match and Ravishing self-esteam backstage course. On Wednesday we had a pure wrestling for 5 minutes! No new names in RAW or SDL, no RAW returns! Nothing that special! We are back in the usual weekly basis!
THE BOSS CELEBRATION WAS CUT SHORT BY THE ANGRY GODDESS
Hm, realy nice war of words, with a lot of reasonable speech in it!
When I firsta read about it early in the moment I was "Oh, another talk the talk!". But Sasha and Alexa made a nice angle, that prepare the stage for their next week title rematch. Meanwhile Bliss made an interesting point: she remind us about Sasha's losing streak in title-defense matches. The whole three time, previously, when she fought Charlotte Flair, she regained the title, but loss it short after!
The question is: Is Sasha Banks in a period of 'Curse Breaking' or she will drop the belt to Bliss, next week? I am not daring to predict this, because we have the whole RAW creative team against us! :-D I think that the best way will be - I don't care who will win! I want Paige! I want the Iconic Duo invasion in RAW, as a supporting power for Emma! It will be nice to see Sasha brooking the magical circle around her title defenses, but I don't mind if one Twisted Bliss, stripped her off her belt, for a while!
EMMA RECEIVED ANOTHER 'OPPORTUNITY' TO BE SMASHED!
Oh, dear Tenille Dashwood.... Sorry, I meant - Emma! You are many people's favorite, no matter what gimmick you'll adopt! You are one of my millions professional soft spots and I want to see you wearing that damn belt, girl! We all know what you are capable off! Patience!
Emma is somewhere in the NOWHERE! We see her almost every week, speaking behind the stage and getting into trouble, fighting in the ring as great as always and somehow we can feel some sadness about this amazing young lady!
This week we saw another episode of "Jax Smash!" performed on our evil beauty Aussie. Nia even didn't use the Somersault Senton to finish her! Just Samoan Drop! It was sad, but I still have hope that this will turn. Me and Toni Serano even have some Ideas (Paige (opponent) or the Iconic Duo(allies)). But for now we will watch her participating in a squash matches against Jax or matches with changeable success against Mickie James. Not good! But as long as we can see her... everything is fine! 'It's all about me!'... yeah, girl, even when you lose, it's still about you!
ANOTHER RUINED CELEBRATION TURNED INTO A MATCH. WHAT A CONTROVERSIAL TEAM - CHAMPION AND MISS MONEY IN THE BANK!!!
I think that the idea here is that Carmella has Big Mouth, but small courage (as character of course; respect Leah). When it comes to cash in we are not sure what and when to expect... But let's start from the beginning:
Our new, long awaiting, SmackDown Women's Champion entered the ring to remind us, how the 'GLOW was unplugged!', how the traditions and legacy were winning, to restore the honor and dignity, etc. Of course it was impossible for Carmella and the newest Diva of SDL James Ellsworth, not to show up and to remind us, that they are the owners of the white briefcase, that consist a contract! Actually, Ellsworth 'spoiled' Carmella's strategy for the night.
The match started. Naomi entered still Glowing and amazing, even without the belt! Becky Lynch - well, Becky is Becky, everybody cheers up, for her! At the beginning Carmella forced Nattie to start the fight against the woman, who title Neidhart took - the Glow Messiah. Of course Miss Money in the Bank's plan went in-motion, when she refused to tag in.The team Champion, lost after another misscomunication, chasing around the ring, Bexploder by Lynch and Split-legged moonsault by Naomi for 3 count, on Carmella.
The general tension in this match was the constant wondering of fans and Carmella - to cash in, or not to cash in?! There was a moment when she think to do it, but it flied away quickly! At this point, this is the real heat bringer in SDL! The match was good, but all eyes were on the Princess of Staten Island and her lackey! Carmella, as the only Money In the Bank briefcase holder (you know, Baron Corbin cash in, unsuccessfully) is the one who can steal the show and the belt, eventually...Is she the one?...
LANA PROVIDE A MEDITATION FOR RAGE SESSION BACKSTAGE!
...Hm! It looks like, Carmella is not the only one targeting the Women's belt, dear Watson!
Lana and Tamina are forming really deep bound between them and their rising alliance of Evil is on its way to bring chaos and destruction. I am curious with whom, Lana was talking on the phone, about next week?
The Ravishing Russion made Tamina to close her eyes and to find her inner aggression and then she announced that Snuka is ready for the belt! That series of backstage segments, every week is really buzzing, like 'The Fashion Files' of Breezango, but even more interesting and spicy! I want to see where this alliance will take these two women.
SARAH LOGAN TRIED TO MAKE ANOTHER IMPRESSION, PRIOR MAE YOUNG CLASSIC
She's back! The Kentucky farm girl, born in the woods, raised in the mud, who wrestled wild animals and other things in the mud, dust and whatever is baaaack! I want to see more in the future from Sarah Logan for sure. She is cute 😊 and amazing between the ropes, her gimmick is kind of... funny, but we are more interested in her skills at this point. The gimmick will be refine when she is a constant part of NXT, like it happened with Nikki Cross. She became more and more better in her crazy-gimmick, with every appearance and promo. I know that Sarah will do the same with her part-savage, part-heroic character! Of course she was booked to lose the match, helping the Iconic Duo to restore some of their dignity, after Billie Kay was destroyed by Ruby Riot. This time Peyton Royce, who is kind of in a push get sure that the work is done how its supposed to be done - with victory, with great Fisherman's suplex, meanwhile!
Real talk! It's really great feeling to see two amazing former indie competitors, establishing themselves in WWE NXT! Logan trained by Taka Michinoku in Japan, Royce, trained by Lance Storm in Canada. The match was short, but really intensive, filled with good moves, like the Venus Fly Trap Hang-up on the ropes by Peyton and Sarah's great offenses. It was nice to see the NXT Universe cheering for Logan, I think that she is amazing and deserve a promotion, with Vanessa Borne, Lacey Evans and Bianca Belair! They may teamed her with Ruby Riot. According to the match cards from live events, both 'deviant characters' work well together and had earned some victories over Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville!!!
CONSEQUENCES:
RAW:
- Next week we will have the opportunity to see the 'anticipating' Rematch for the RAW Women's title;
- We are curious about 'Emma chasing opportunities' storyline's evolution, too;
SMACKDOWN LIVE:
- We are still waiting for Carmella's next move;
- Most importantly - what is Lana cooking?
- We don't know when the pre-tape will be ready;
- Of course Asuka's health status and the NXT Women's title status is one of the hot topics for NXT women's division;
