Gran Metallik and Akira Tozawa will likely be around by Survivor Series. If they ever find out what happened to Jack Gallagher - his indie farewell was on the same show as Tommy End, who was confirmed as starting at the Performance Center this week - he could be in contention too.

Why that way round? DQ finish with Alexa on November 8th, no-DQ title match at Survivor Series. There you go.

In fairness we don't know if Becky will still be champion come Survivor Series.

It's the best character development the Shining Stars might ever have had.

Why would they cast Ellsworth as a serious world title contender? He's presented as a grade A jabroni with only a desperation superkick to his name. He's there because it's a while until the next PPV SD is involved with and they need to keep Styles-Ambrose active. Same reason the Spirit Squad are still poking their…

If in their next title match Charlotte gives Sasha eleven unprotected chair shots to the head the comparison might be more sturdy.

It's not like Mick was praising the decision to give them a first Cell match on social media last week or anything.

But Sasha went unbeaten for about a year. Admittedly they had to take her off TV for about two and a half months to keep that going, and none of those wins mattered or led to anything even when over champions (Charlotte via roll-up one random Smackdown, Nikki in a weird match where they changed alignment during the…

Not necessarily, if the aim is Sasha turning on her. Of course for that to work they have to re-establish Bayley as a popular face who wins matches first.

My other concern is so far WWE aren't promoting This Historic Moment For Women's Wrestling outside their programming. You've got two people (as opposed to characters) there with interesting backgrounds who are instant hooks as being able to demonstrate that women's pro wrestling isn't failed lingerie models pulling…

Is that not letting anticipation be affected by received opinion, though? Sasha takes big bumps but she doesn't often do high spots, and if we're going to start saying a pushed woman shouldn't have a big match because she might get injured we may as well send her back to Chaotic Wrestling.

Someone thought Lesnar would get booed in his home town. Seriously, were the company undermining the show deliberately this week or something?

The ultimate problem with a "don't do this, you don't know what you're getting yourselves into" is there's plenty of people responding "no, they shouldn't", especially as it had to mean they literally went from platitudes all round last week to having to reinforce a blood feud that hasn't been outright suggested for…

WWE - where we spent a year anticipating Bayley's call-up and she was still promoted much too early.

Well, there's no way a line like "the internet has the scoops, brother" could ever backfire.

Alexa shirts wouldn't sell anything like as well as quickly as Ellsworth shirts, which are already on backorder. Blue Pants got a shirt, and she was a literal jobber on the third show.

It doesn't help that he's doing a more confused version of a gimmick that the same show did two months ago.

Yes, clearly nine months into a hugely successful (if you ignore Mania) run and world title push leading to him becoming one of the company's very few quantifiable draws they've decided to punish Styles by having his rival deny him obvious dominant wins.

Only WWE would have one of its few genuine mainstream crossover stars make a great play about how they were finally giving their women the respect they were due and then have him go back on it hours later.

I think being aloof about the era of taking women seriously is something they want to play around with in the Women's Wrestling era, it's been suggested around Alexa sometimes to the extent that one of her first main roster promos was about how hot she was. But by that same token you have to commit to it if that's all…
