![]() I wonder now if Bayley is going to win the Raw Women’s Championship so Damage CTRL can win “all the gold in one show.” That’s the only way it makes sense to have had Kai & Skye lose the titles on Raw only to regain them here. There’s still too many interferences and distraction finishes in WWE. There seemed to be a delay in Nikki getting out there because Alexa could have hit Twisted Bliss on Kai and been done with the match. The referee was tied up with Asuka and Skye. Well, the doubt was warranted although it took interference on the part of Nikki Cross who attacked her former partner and championship co-holder Alexa. That said, a seed of doubt was planted in our heads about their ability to retain the titles. Talk to the Mountie at the Royal Rumble in 1992 and Christian in 2011, and countless others Byron.

The finish felt abrupt, but I wonder if there was an injury on Lesnar’s end. I thought for a second we were getting the Bret Hart pin over Roddy Piper at WrestleMania 8 when Lesnar went off the turnbuckle, but nonetheless we got Lesnar just leveraging Lashley via leaning back. I liked the brawling to start as it fit the story told on TV and overall, I thought the match went well. All of that said, a lot was on the line heading into what many always viewed as a dream match (despite already having a one-on-one at the Rumble). Lesnar since lost the championship to Roman Reigns and came up short in his attempt to regain it. Lashley couldn’t finish the match due to injury. Lashley took the WWE Championship from Lesnar earlier in the year at the Royal Rumble, but Lesnar regained it the last time they were in Saudi Arabia in an Elimination Chamber match. Championship several weeks prior to this show, so the idea is for Lashley to get revenge.
