I can wait to see how Smackdown responds to Sasha/Charlotte. Becky Lynch vs Alexa Bliss in a flaming tables match?

People don't even hardly climb to the top of cells anymore and when they do they always do super safe bumps that look worse than they are. At mania Shane jumped off a cell onto a ton of padding and there's no way Vince is letting the women do anything close to that.

The match will end with Sasha and Charlotte cryng, Stephanie and Mick giving flowers to them and the entire raw roster clapping. Womens Revolution. Fin.

I'll be really sad when Becky retains the title, because I think she works better chasing the title, and also I like Alexa Bliss and want her to win all the titles.

This women revolution crap is beyond stale right now. This is the same company who refuses medical treatment to Paige and at the same time they are pushing some weird feminist agenda. I hope Sasha-Charlotte have a good - botch free and injury free - match.

I'm not sure I'd take Paige and Del Rio's word for what's going on with Paige, but I do agree the self congratulatory bullshit is annoying as hell. The worst thing is the company is clearly capable of better based on how they booked the same women on NXT and how the Smackdown division is booked. When Sasha and Bayley main evented NXT Rival, it felt natural and all the focus on them being the first women to main event a WWE event was about how they'd earned it, whereas this Hell in a Cell thing feels more like the focus is on WWE putting the women in the main event. Things got bad when Steph involved herself in the women's revolution and it got even worse when Foley got involved. They're both trying to put over how progressive they are it comes across as self-serving from Stephanie and kinda creepy from Foley.

I think that'd give the Smackdown division the same problem that NXT currently has, in that I don't buy any of the women beating her, and it'd take way too long to build up a credible challenger out of who they have.

I could at least buy Becky as a challenger to Asuka, but it gets significantly tougher after that. Alexa's great, but I would just expect Asuka to kick her head clean off her shoulders.

Also, Ryback had a really hilarious harebrained scheme at one point.

I'd be unsure who would win a big well-built Nikki vs Asuka match for the same reasons as nobody thought AJ or KO would beat Cena clean.

I thought Goldberg was just going to come out and yell YOUR NEXT to Lesnar but we got a heartfelt promo and an awesome moment so congrats to WWE on exceeding my expectations. The match will be what it is but Goldberg seemed much better on the mic now than before.

If I had to nitpick anything it would be Goldberg's WWE theme I mean come on now, everyone knows him for the original and since WWE have the rights can't they just use that iconic theme song? When I hear this one it just reminds me of 2003 reign of doom and Triple H sledgehammering Goldberg when he was super hot.

Charlotte is great and on the main roster she has improved greatly in promos and ring work. She is being weighed down by Sasha Banks.
