Everybody always jokes about Vince never dying and keeping a stranglehold on wwe for the next 200 years, but the reality of the situation is that after we're all dead and gone Dixie Carter is still going to be scamming people for money to keep tna afloat. The zorgons from cluster 23 have no concept of deceit, she'll take them for all they're worth and still lose money on tna.

Even with all the joking around I'm going to feel like absolute shit the day he passes. I hope that's not for a long time.

At least we'll get Zombie Vince memes!

That's great...certainly a better option than anyone on the current NXT women's roster. Don't want to rush to Asuka vs. Ember Moon or NIkki Cross just yet.
 
Also, I've noticed that Charlotte/Sasha are the faces on the HIAC promotional material. Here's hoping they pull the trigger on them being the main event
It kinda feels like WWE are biting off more then they can chew with this. Because not only are we potentially getting the first-ever women's main roster PPV main event match, we're also getting it in a HIAC. Basically this whole thing seems more about progression then having a good feud (which could sum up Raw's women's roster easily). They didn't use the HIAC as what it's supposed to be, a place where feuds come to an end, it was basically 'women are gonna do this thing for the first time' ever.

Then again, it all comes down to what spots we'll get. Could be genuine chairs and tables, could simply be Sasha getting tossed into the cell five times in a row. Ric gave an interview recently that was more or less hinting Charlotte wants to moonsault off the cell , but there's no way WWE would allow that.

It would seem like a no-brainer decision to me that this would be the final singles match between the two for a long time. Feud ender and "first time ever" don't have to be mutually exclusive and it would pretty easy to combine the two in the build-up... but this is the WWE, and no-brainer decisions are not their forte.

And lawd at that Ric interview. Maybe they'll bust out the sawdust flatbed from Armageddon 2000.

It better be. But then again, depending how the Survivor Series team matches go (in that I'm wondering if Sasha or Becky will be in that match as part of their brands teams or having actual title defenses) there's a strong chance Nia Jax runs in on a celebrating Sasha to start a feud given she's been off TV ever since CoC and the Bayley feud is too early to happen, so maybe Sasha vs Charlotte for the billionth time isn't so bad.

Also unless Sasha's standing in a puddle of pillows with a million other people ready to catch Charlotte, she isn't jumping off anything and even then WWE would have second thoughts.

Asuka opponent for takeover:

Mickie James

No one would guess that.

Holy fuck, I am beyond hyped, she is my favourite female wrestler ever, she is a big reason I even got into wrestling weirdly enough (plus i found her porn photos online when I was 13 and was amazed)

I'd rather just move up Asuka after the Japan trip and vacate the title. No other ladies are ready and Asuka needs better comp. Lady is legit.
 
There hasn't been a Cell match that came close to being as lit as the first one, and I don't see any being able to any time soon. There's just 0 heat nowadays.
 
remember when Hell in a Cell matches were a last resort that no one would ever want to do, because it would take years off you're career, or you wanted to end someone else's?

Now Sasha is volunteering to be in one not even because of Charlotte, but more 'women making history' women's revolution shit.

All that went out the window when Hell in a Cell become a yearly PPV.

Excited for Mickie in nXt, which is just perfect. Gives the women's division down there a much needed name, and gives the younger girls somebody to work with.

Even dumber when you have the poster boy for how the cell can fuck your life up, Mick Foley being super excited for the women and even arranging another HIAC match while at it.
 
One of problems with the cell is that they are suppose to be brutal as fuck but aren't nowadays.

PG killed it, giving it its own PPV was just corpse desecration

Imagine if there was a 3 hour World War 3 PPV where the big match was held two or three times and didn't even take up the whole event. At some point something special and rare is held too frequently, and in the process loses its specialness too

WWE needs to chill with the airbrush on posters, they look like CG characters

Yeah, it one of reason why Brock vs taker last year felt so good cause it was like a old cell match.
