I've been enjoying the Bayley and Sasha storyline although their Tag Title reign should not extend past Extreme Rules. WWE allegedly wants Sasha to go after the Smackdown Women's Championship in front of a normal crowd but they can't count on that happening soon.

The Meme Queen returns to Smackdown tonight!

Congrats Becky though trusting Seth is still a gamble in my eyes. Hope for good things for her and the baby. As for Raw, this is nothing but positive news with how stale the division got with Becky essentially becoming a glass ceiling. Was the ending of this overly long reign satisfying? Not really. WWE should have given the MITB case to another female competitor and let Asuka win a newly introduced "Queen of the Ring" tournament to crown a new champion. It could have been used to help build up the other Raw women especially if the matches were booked competitively. With the real world how it is right now, Raw definitely had plenty of time to hype this "historical" event.

The usual story with professional sports as well. Teams need their star player(s) which leads to doctors either minimizing how bad a potential injury is or they rush through the healing process so they can go back out there and perform. Independent doctors as a second opinion is a must because they have no stake in you as a money making asset.

This is really tough as WWE has been hoarding talent for so long and now the bubble has finally burst. They clearly could have found other means to save jobs and have their workers paid but they opted for a quick fix. I hope everyone who was released (and every single person who has lost their jobs!) bounces back from this situation.

Alexa and Nikki vs Carmella and Dana might be fun. Sasha and Bayley are on a roll in terms of pure entertainment value. Seeds are planted. Tamina cutting a good promo. Shocked! Mandy and Sonya getting so much screentime. Good for them. Naomi vs Dana next week for a MITB qualifying match. Naomi will snatch.

I'm good with that result. I want Sasha's 1st SD Women's Championship victory to have a crowd.

This match is sure something...

That totally flew past me. Your mind.

That was cute. Now is Sonya about to become the Dawn Marie to Mandy's Torrie Wilson?

I never get tired of Charlotte despite all her championship reigns. She'll either give you great matches or hilarious reaction gifs. Queen.

Hope they warmed up their vocal cords before this match.

Liv sounds like she's giving birth. Love her gear though.

True. Smackdown's women's division is really fun and filled with characters. I'm pleased with them ironing out Bayley's heel turn after some shaky promos at the beginning and Sasha is simply a star. I also love Mandy and Sonya being such pivotal characters on the show. As for Alexa, she isn't benefiting from being in a tag team as Nikki steals the spotlight with her personality while Alexa seems watered down in that department. Looking forward to the women's matches tonight. Missed Day 1 of WM but might catch Taker/Styles later.

Bella Army shout out! Let me cry. Just remembering their Smackdown debut and not knowing how impactful The Bella Twins would become to me. Briesus and Nikkisawa forever and ever.
