tonight on monday night raw the wwe
women's tag team championships are on
the line
as wwe women's tag team champions bayley
and sasha banks defend against the
kabuki warriors former
wwe women's tag team champions in
themselves
should be a really really fun match
tonight i think
uh and i've mentioned this quite a few
times on the recent videos that we've
done here on the channel
in my opinion you look at who have been
the mvps for wwe
right over this year and the
crazy year that it has been so far i
think if you look at
who has been the mvps uh of wwe this
year you have three of them
in this match alone so i think the mvp
of the empty arena shows the shows they
did at the wwe format center
with zero fans was indeed oscar i don't
think anyone
could hold a candle to oscar and her
recent performances
in wwe you just look at it right i think
her
her character her mic work her in-ring
work
everything just a perfect package
everything nobody was
no they always say right nobody is ready
for oscar but nobody could
absolutely touch oscar and that's the
reason that she is the wwe raw women's
champion right now
fast forward into this next phase of
this pandemic era inside wwe
and i would have to say that the mvps of
this
uh era of wwe when we've got fans back
in the performance center even though
their nxt performance center recruits
they have to be the mvps have to be
bailly and sasha banks
ever since bayley and sasha banks have
won the wwe women's tag team
championships
and you've got to remember at the time
that they did win the wwe women's tax
team championships
there are a lot of people that were
saying do they really need it should
they have it alex bliss and nikki cross
were doing a fine job etc etc
well obviously they were proved
completely wrong because
sasha banks and bailly have just been on
another level ever since
they uh won the wwe women's tag team
championships
last month because they've done
what should have been the case when it
came to these wwe women's tag team
championships in the first place
the real unique and fun thing about the
wwe women's tag team championship
was that it could be defended across all
three brands
it wasn't a brand exclusive title you
could appear on raw you could appear on
smackdown you could appear on nxt and
nobody's really used that to much effect
in the past
yes we saw um i don't know alexa bliss
and nikki cross make a token raw
appearance or the same with the kabuki
warriors oscar might appear on a
smackdown
to facilitate the feud for wrestlemania
between alexa bliss and nikki cross and
the kabuki warriors
but no one's really done anything about
it and yes obviously
when we were in arenas and raw and
smackdown were on
different we're in different towns and
different buildings
logistically that's hard right because
you know that nxt is always going to be
in florida every week from full sail
but if you're in boston on a monday and
then on friday you're in a different
city
say i'm sure they would go to east west
coast but say they were in los angeles
on a friday for smackdown
you're having to go from boston to
florida to l.a that's
an insane travel schedule for a
championship in the wwe women's tag team
championship which
no disservice or discredit here isn't as
important as a you know a world champion
or a woman's champion or anything like
that so it's difficult logistically to
do so
obviously with the pandemic and having
raw and smackdown being taped out
of the wwe performance center and nxt
being taped in full sail
it's a lot easier to do that but sasha
banks and bailly have done that better
than any other tag team has whilst
they've been
the wwe women's tag team champions
they've appeared on raw they've appeared
on nxt and obviously they're appearing
on smackdown because that's their brand
that they have been drafted to but i
think the amazing thing about it and
this is
uh this is my point that i try and make
very often when it comes to sasha banks
and bailly at the moment
in that they're appearing on uh three
shows a week most weeks
i mean they're not always appearing on
nxt but recently they have been
if they're appearing on all three brands
that means they potentially
you've got three hours of raw two hours
of nxt and
two hours of uh of smackdown every week
that's seven hours of television every
week that potentially sasha banks and
bailey could be involved in not only
is the work rate involved just to be
involved in all of that spectacular
but they're appearing on all three shows
and being seen on so much television
every week
and yet they don't feel overexposed me
as a fan i'm always wanting more and i'm
always excited as to what they deliver
which it has to be said that's that's a
credit to both of them isn't it
we roundly criticize charlotte flair
recently for appearing on raw appearing
on nxt and appearing on smackdown when
she was the nxt women's champion
and the biggest argument there was
charlotte fluff she feels overexposed
she's not needed on all three shows good
of opportunities to other people etc etc
and maybe there are agendas when it
comes to that with that criticism of
charlotte flair and that's probably
something to consider there but bailey
and sasha banks when they've been
appearing on every
three every show they've just been
knocking it out the park
they just have been absolutely knocking
it out of the park all of their segments
are great
their promos are great when they're
appearing on commentary it's great they
were the main event last week of raw
i think they'll be the main event this
week of raw some people will say well
that proves that they can't draw because
the raw final hour does terrible the raw
final hour is terrible regardless of
who's in the main event so i wouldn't
judge them by that
what i would judge is that uh sasha
banks
versus eo shirai got over 900 000
viewers the other week on wednesday
eo shirai and sasha banks proved
themselves to be legitimate draws
and on smackdown recently every time
that bailey and sasha banks appear
the ratings go up the the statistics are
there some people will say oh they're
you know they've been statistics are
there to be manipulated which is true
but i think they don't lie with how
popular
and how great sasha banks and bailey are
right now and this also
uh goes into the raw women's
championship match at extreme rules
obviously we have sasha banks going up
against raw women's champion oscar
i've been saying on social media and
i'll say it again here in my opinion
that match should be the main event of
extreme rules
will it be i don't think so uh the
reason i don't think it will be is
because of
the other horror show matches that
they're hyping up
uh they being wwe of course i think
that potentially the main event of
extreme rules could be the wyatt swamp
fight between braun strowman and bray
wyatt
purely because i mean i think the horror
show is that's what it's meant to be
right
like right it's a cinematic match which
traditionally doesn't always main event
the show but it has
a few times now in this pandemic era of
wwe whether it was wrestlemania on the
first night or whether it was
at money in the bank cinematic match
didn't uh main event backlash regardless
of what people said that greatest match
wrestling match ever between edge and
randy orton was not a cinematic
wrestling match
uh so in my opinion it should main event
extreme rules but i think
the wire swamp fight will do because it
is it's just in keeping with the
the horror shave theme really well isn't
it or alternatively
uh the rey mysterio vs seth rollins
match could be the match the main events
the horror show at extreme rules
just because of the amount of work and
effort that is going into it
i mentioned that the cinematic match at
extreme rules will be
bray wyatt versus braun strowman in the
wyatt swamp fight
however another taped match and it's
going to have a cinematic element to it
will be the rey mysterio versus seth
rollins eye for an eye match
at extreme rules because by all accounts
we're going to have a normal taped match
but the finish because the finish is so
wacky and so bizarre
in that you have to remove or gouge out
your opponent's eye
yes that is a real sentence you have to
remove your opponent's eye to win the
match
they're actually going to be using some
cgi or some special effects to actually
get that visual
see the pun i did there um to get that
visual of the eye being removed
from the opponent and i think just how
gruesome that finish has to be and how
mind-blowing that finish has to be of
removing your eye from the opponent i
don't think you can follow that by
any other match so i think that match
could easily be the main event
also so um but in my opinion
going back to why i think uh sasha banks
vs oscar should be the main event of the
show
is because i genuinely think that will
be the best match on the show the best
wrestling match on the show
i don't think any match um will hold a
candlelit a hand candle to it obviously
people will be talking
about the rey mysterio seth rollins
match because of the finish regardless
if it's good bad or indifferent
people would be talking about the cgi
people will be talking about that one of
the competitors in that match is
now less than one eye uh one eye less
rather
and will have their eye ripped out of
their head so that's probably why it
could be the main event
likewise people are gonna be talking
about the wyatt swamp fight because of
the cinematic nature the wacky nature
and
just the sheer spectacle that it will be
people might be talking about that more
than the oscar versus sasha banks match
but in my opinion
i do think that the ask of us at sasha
max will be the best match on the show
by far in ring i don't think any match
on that show will be able to touch them
for many reasons oscar and sasha banks
are two of the best workers on the wwe
roster right now
that's male female or whatever they are
two of the very best
on the roster as we speak sasha banks
recently i mentioned about bayley being
on a roll but sasha banks
arguably if you had to compare bayley
and sasha banks at the moment sasha
banks is on the ultimate role
inside wwe right now whether it's having
great matches on monday night raw having
great matches on smackdown
uh main event in the first night of the
nxt great american bash
against eos gerai having a standout
match there defeating aw fighter fest
night one
sasha banks at the moment i mentioned
about her and bailey being the mvps
of this current uh era of the pandemic
era that we're living in at the moment
in wwe uh but if you had to compare them
both i would say that sasha banks is on
more of a role than bayley
and maybe they factor into that when
they do the eventual sasha banks versus
bailey split in the future
now what about that sasha banks bailey
split i've seen a lot of people saying
when is that going to happen
it's inevitable that is going to happen
right sasha banks versus bailey it's
going to happen at some point down the
line it's been teased for the longest
longest time
and if anything i'm impressed at wwe and
i'm
uh quite happy that wwe has managed not
to pull the trigger on it yet because
wwe historically has been very trigger
happy
when it comes to hot shotting angles hot
shot and splits not letting a feud
marinate
or just get the timing right when it
comes to feuds like this
and i think obviously the pandemic has
factored into that look if we had
wrestlemania that has sold out
raymond james stadium this year in uh in
in florida i think we would have had
bayley versus sasha banks at that show
for the smackdown women's championship
because we didn't have
that stadium show uh wwe decided to
put the brakes on it and let this bailey
and sasha banks feud
simmer and continue while they are still
a tag team and eventually putting the
tag team championships on them
then some people speculated well
summerslam was intended to be in boston
massachusetts
at the time we didn't know how long we
were going to be out of arenas for
so some people said okay maybe wait till
summerslam you can have
sasha banks versus bailey and sasha
banks his hometown she defeats bayley
wins the women's championship she's yet
to win in wwe that being the smackdown
women's championship then she'd be a
grand slam champion
she'd have run the won the royal women's
championship shooter won the smackdown
women's championship and then she would
have won
the wwe tag team championship also
women's tag team championship rather
uh but again that isn't happening now
summerslam has taken place as with the
previous events
from the wwe performance center we
aren't having fans in arenas or stadiums
or anything like that
anytime soon especially at capacity
anyway we might have
fans starting to go in arenas at a very
very very limited capacity in the near
future
that's something to discuss at a later
time on a later video
so personally i think when it comes to
the sasha banks bailey split
i think they can hold out to
wrestlemania next year i really think
that's possible some people will say oh
that's way too long that's way too long
look back in the day and i know this
times have changed and it's different
now
you had the mega powers team up for a
year and then split up around
wrestlemania time now i'm not saying
that sasha banks and bailly are hulk
hogan and macho man randy savage
far from it but i think there is
something to be said about taking your
time when it comes to telling stories if
a story is good
fans will give it time and fans will be
patient with it
some of the subtle storytelling they've
been doing so far when it comes to the
bayley and sasha banks feud when it
comes to
bayley holding the smackdown women's
championship around her sorry sasha
banks holding bailly's
smackdown woman's championship around
her waist when uh bailey has been
working in the ring or
sasha banks when she's holding the
women's tag team championships both of
them she only shows
the boss side plates instead of the
bailey side plates it's the subtle
things like that
that i think the fans are really
appreciating and i myself as a fan
are really appreciating also also
you've noticed that both superstars now
have started to volunteer the other for
matches initially it was just bailey it
was very one-sided she would always
nominate sasha banks for matches saying
no you want to match with sasha banks
she'll accept she'll beat you right now
and everyone thought okay that's again
ramping up this eventual bailly versus
sasha banks split
coming in the near future how do you
extend this you have sasha banks do the
same thing you get bailey back
again it causes more friction but it's
not as it's not
it's not as one-sided and it's not as um
oh okay well i have to get my own back
eventually it becomes a sort of back and
forth kind of thing which extends it
also extending this split massively has
been putting the tag team championships
on them
which is absolutely looking back in
hindsight was the right thing to do
again some people said that alexa bliss
and nikki cross should have kept
the women's tag team championships at
the time i said i thought that
bailey and banks was the right deal
because it extends the feud i think this
is the biggest money feud in the female
division right now
eventually they're going to split and
it's going to make big money it's going
to be a big story and when they do split
it's going to be a big moment
you think back to whenever they do like
these big highlight reels of moments in
the brand's history when it when either
it's raw
raw 25 or smackdown whenever they have
the thousands of episode and they show
these highlights of
big iconic moments in the brand's
history i truly think
if they have bayley turn on sasha banks
on an episode of friday night smackdown
it'll be an iconic friday night
smackdown moment
i think back to the festival of
friendship between chris jericho and
kevin owens i think it could be a
similar thing here
uh that some so many people would talk
about because it's a moment we all knew
was coming we all knew that kevin owens
was going to turn on chris jericho
we just didn't know when and they played
it for so long and they played it so
well
uh that people still talk about it as a
great moment to this day as one of the
really one of the most recent great raw
moments we haven't seen a great
raw moment in such a long time maybe the
last great raw moment in my opinion was
randy orton turning on edge earlier this
year but they've been so few and far
between
over the last few years that people
still do talk about moments like the
festival of friendship
so fondly and i think we would see the
same situation here
as to when bayley finally turns on sasha
banks or who knows
sasha banks could turn on bayley in a
babyface run it doesn't have to be
bailey
turning on banks it can be slash banks
turning on bayley also
so the longer they hold this out i think
the better i think the better the fans
will be patient if it's a good story if
it's a boring story and it's not working
and it's poor booking fans will become
impatient
but if it's a good story i know myself
as a fan if i'm enjoying the story
i'm willing to wait to see where wwe
will go of it we know the outcome here
we know the match is going to be bailey
versus sasha
banks eventually but i myself uh if
there's a good story being told i'm
willing to wait
and i'm willing to wait for it to be
done on the right stage it shouldn't be
done in the performance center it
shouldn't be done
in front of only performance center
recruits this is a match and an angle
that should be done in an arena that
results in a stadium match or at least
an arena match so
really looking forward to eventually
when they do split in the future as long
as they do it right
in terms of her prediction for tonight
in terms of a prediction for the women's
tag team championship match tonight on
raw
i don't expect sasha banks and bailey to
lose
we know that kyrie sane is likely to be
leaving wwe
soon or at least going on hiatus soon
the plan is for her to go back to japan
to be an ambassador for wwe or just to
take some time off
her contract i believe has expired or is
due to expire soon
some people have said that uh people
like alex mccarthy and sean ross
have stated online that uh that kyrie
saying rather leaving wwe isn't a sure
thing and wwe wants to keep her
as of right now we don't have any update
whether she is going to stay or not
but i would be surprised if the kabuki
warriors won the women's tank team
championships right now
considering that kyrie sainz could soon
uh leave the company of course if they
do win tonight that's a pretty good
indication
that kyrie saying we'll be sticking
around for a while but like i said
myself i would personally keep the
titles on sasha banks and bailey purely
because having them on all three brands
is absolute money right now
and it's one of the best things on each
show that they appear on so i'm going to
go with bayley and sasha banks to win
this one
but what are your predictions for
tonight's show will you be watching
monday night raw tonight what do you
think will happen in the main event
between the kabuki warriors
and sasha banks and bailly for the wwe
women's tag team championships
