Alexa Bliss Speaks

Not going to lie, the prospect of four weeks of Alexa Bliss coming up with new ways to call Natalya a crazy cat lady is intoxicating. The whole “Mickie is old” thing was lame because it wasn’t true. But Nattie really is a crazy cat lady! This is going to be great.

Alexa tries to put Mickie behind her, but she’s upset that the crowds don’t seem to appreciate their Raw Women’s Champion. She points out that everyone gets chants except for her. And the best part is that somehow, Alexa gets better and better on the mic each and every week.

The Ohio native is able to take down the entire Midwest before Mickie comes down to show that Alexa can’t get rid of her completely just yet. Without a word, Mickie hits a kick to the gut and a nasty DDT – all in spike heels. I won’t go into too many details, but I’ve worn heels before and can’t even walk in them – I couldn’t imagine trying to do anything more athletic than that.

Clearly, the Mickie-Alexa thing isn’t over just yet. But as for the rest of the Women’s Division…

Oh Captain, My Captain…

Kurt Angle talks to Sasha Banks and Bayley about needing a captain for the Raw Women’s team at Survivor Series. In comes Alicia Fox, who is so good at acting like a lunatic that it’s scary. Turns out, we’ll have a triple threat match tonight, and the winner will be the captain. Angle tries to tell Fox that pins only count in the ring, and she laughs in his face and walks away.
