It’s Triple Threat time for the Divas Championship at WrestleMania
I know, it’s not official yet, but the seeds have been planted for the big triple threat showdown between Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch, and Divas Champion Charlotte, at WrestleMania. Last night on Raw, Sasha and Becky both pinned each other at the same time which ended their #1 Contender Match as a draw. It was actually an awkwardly paced match, but it did its job in setting up this controversy.
The two women are going at it again on SmackDown but I fully expect more shenanigans in this bout as well. These three women were the pillars of the divas revolution in 2015 in WWE. While they’ll use the big moment to crown Sasha as the face of the division moving forward, each woman deserves that opportunity to shine.
The Taker segment was a waste. For all the hype, it should’ve lasted a lot longer, maybe gave us Taker’s reasons for going along with Vince(though history shows that when Taker works with Vince, a title run is usually in the picture). The fact that such a heavily hyped return was less than five minutes was a gross disappointment and really killed that crowd.
I get that Undertaker doesn’t NEED to come out and do a long promo to sell the match, and that they still have 4.5 weeks to tell the story, but for WWE to so heavily hype his return for such a short segment that really did very little was a stupid move.
The thing I hated most about Raw was every hour started with a boring promo from a McMahon family member. First it was Triple H at 8, Stephanie at 9 and Vince at 10.
It’s such an antiquated & abysmal formula that stays the course, but doesn’t amount to anything special.
