In all likelihood, though, Belair has this title on her shoulder come WrestleMania and a transitional reign might not be worth it just to possibly add more embers to an already-dying storyline for one event, then go back to Belair. Otherwise, WWE Creative is just replicating what happened the last time they clashed, with Belair repeatedly beating The Role Model. If WWE is feeling the pressure to add more stock to Damage CTRL prior to WarGames, don't be surprised if there is another hot-potato situation with the Raw Women's Championship wherein Bayley wins the title at Crown Jewel.Ĭarrying the belt into the WarGames match gives her more of a reason to keep feuding with Bianca Belair. Considering the main roster and NXT women's tag titles are even more susceptible to this type of booking, don't be shocked if Bliss and Asuka lose. If WWE Creative doesn't see how the belts lose even more value with every hot-potato switch, this pattern will likely continue. However, if the titles stay on Alexa Bliss and Asuka, it becomes even more pointless to see it five days later. Ultimately, if the belts change hands, that makes the title change just a superfluous "gotcha" to swerve audiences and milk this for another match or two. These two teams have feuded for months, and we've seen all they have to offer against each other.Ĭhanging the titles on Monday night was a last-ditch effort to inject some adrenaline into this, but repeating it a few days later renders that moot, particularly as this has to stretch out even longer into Survivor Series. Almost nothing can happen here of significant value. WWE has booked this feud in a lose-lose situation. Kross, meanwhile, can move on to feud with someone new. If the Scot lost to Kross and went straight into wanting to join the anti-Bloodline group, he would have less credibility. And McIntyre has been a steady adversary for Roman Reigns and his crew. But if this is the potential end of this story, the Scot winning would give it some finality.Īlso, with Survivor Series coming up, it can be assumed The Bloodline will need opponents for one of the WarGames matches. Often, they just lose and move on to something else. It is never a certainty that the hero will get the ultimate victory in any feud.
This may be McIntyre's match to lose for storyline purposes. While that doesn't mean Scarlett won't still find a way to get involved, someone else could climb the cage and cost The Scottish Warrior, or Kross might just get the job done clean. After Scarlett's interference at Extreme Rules, the steel cage should keep her out of the mix, allowing Drew McIntyre and Karrion Kross to throw down on a more even playing field.
