Champion vs Champion Red vs Blue The Goddess Alexa Bliss vs The Queen Charlotte Flair
Elimination Tag Red vs Blue Captain Alicia Fox w/ Bayley, Asuka, Nia Jax & Sasha Banks vs Captain Becky Lynch w/Carmella, Natalya, Naomi and Tamina
I'm thinking Charlotte over Alexa and Team Red over Team Blue. I'm still thinking Paige will make an impact tongiht but we'll see..
Also, Carmella still has MITB....could she cash in tonight?

Bliss should have really won that match in my opinion. The booking of the match really worked in her favor in terms of making her look legitimate, with Alexa dominating and getting the better of Charlotte at every turn. I'm surprised Carmella didn't cash in...maybe she'll do it on an episode of SD or at NOC instead.
I wish they would've done something more with the tag match finish. Asuka eliminating Nattie and Tamina to win was fine, but in terms of a story...I would've liked to see more thought go into it. Like maybe having Asuka and Alicia be the final two, thanks to Asuka saving the day in the same fashion that she beat Nattie and Tamina - so that Fox could not only boast that she won as captain, but that she was one of the survivors of the match (ignoring that it was thanks to Asuka).

Alicia had the crowd behind her for a bit too. i'm hoping Creative takes note of that. Her elimination was a bumbled mess.
Alexa looked amazing tonight and for a short time i actually thought she was going to win.

Alicia finisher botch probably helped her since she took a pinfall instead of a submission lose. Becky didn't have much of a showing as captain. But Tamina looked pretty good with what they gave her.

I thought both matches went the way they should have. It's just the way they got there was quite weird.
The tag match was booked horribly with the early Becky elimination (by BAYLEY of all people). I understand leaving Asuka there with the heels, but I thought Becky would at least get a piece of the Empress. Becky would actually be the only one brave enough on her team to actually face down Asuka. On the other hand, the one person who got to look good outside of Asuka was Tamina, with the way they booked her being able to take out Nia (even if it was by countout). Lana getting knocked out by Nia was hilarious, though. So was Bayley getting squished by Tamina. And Naomi transitioning to her submission too late that she actually managed to pin Alicia. I was LAUGHING.
For the singles match, Alexa can take the loss. And it would be stupid to follow up Charlotte's recent title win with an immediate loss, even if it was against the RAW champion who has a history of running and outsmarting her way to win. I just didn't like how it went too long. It could have ended a few minutes early and by the end I got tired of both Alexa and Charlotte crawling on the floor selling for the whole final few minutes. The big boot at the end hilariously missed by a mile, though the Natural Selection looked good in slow motion. I will forgive Charlotte using the Figure 8 to end the match with a bitchin' back as an adrenaline rush thing.

So Charlotte/Alexa has sorta been a dream match of mine. Assumed it was one of their future WM matches, but I'm also not a fan of limiting matches to only then so I was kinda happy they went with it here. Almost wanted a comedy spot where Charlotte goes for a chop and missed right over her head. Well, that spot would've been part of it if I wrote a fan fic or it anyway. Never thought Charlotte would lose after winning the belt unless they were gonna use some sorta Carmella involvement. Even then I'd see it more as a Cena after NYR situation where she comes down after a hard fought victory.

The elimination match was okay, but could have been so much better. Why was Becky eliminated so early? Why did they treat Tamina like she is relavent all of a sudden? Why do they keep Alicia on the roster when she can barely wrestle?

Tag match was okay. Enjoyable overall but just okay. the booking of it confused me.
I love both Charlotte and Alexa so for me this was a win win either way. Still while Charlotte won technically, Alexa actually won. She dominated that entire match and showed what she is truly capable of.

And story wise I guess Asuka should already get a title shot considering she was the only Raw woman not to lose at Survivor Series.
