NXT is inching closer to their TakeOver: WarGames show on December 6th that will stream on the WWE Network. The show lineup is taking its final shape and for the women’s WarGames match, there is one more spot on Shozti Blackheart’s team to be filled before it’s complete. Shotzi is joined by Ember Moon and Rhea Ripley and they’ll take on Candice LeRae, Dakota Kai, Raquel Gonzalez and Toni Storm.
This week on NXT on the USA Network, Shotzi Blackheart is taking on Raquel Gonzalez in a Ladder match to determine which team gets the WarGames advantage this Sunday.
I’m all about the POST guys having a work/life balance and finding time to relax. So maybe just start announcing when there’s NOT going to be a ladder match on NXT?
No. He, like everyone else, has got to work around a lack of real stars and anyone actually being truly over by adding a gimmick. Lazy booking. It’s the same reason the War Games match will no doubt be ruined again by introducing the same old, tired “weapons”.
They can’t just book a plain old War Games match because nobody cares about the participants so they think trotting out the kendo stick/wafer thin aluminium foil garbage can/fake and weak chair to the back, etc. shots that are 20 years past their sell by date will impress viewers enough to maintain their interest. And it will, as they are pretty much at the bottom and left with only a small hardcore audience that will watch whatever shit they present no matter how bad.
