Spoilers for next week’s show, including the ‘Leather & Lace’ match below:
Thoughts after the cut:
Melanie’s Thoughts
Nice to see that they didn’t go for the T&A gimmick, though I wonder if they announced that to get people to tune in to see some flesh? Anyway, it looks as though were shifting from Angelina vs Velvet to Angelina vs Tara without the former Beautiful People teammates having head a real match. The booking of this feud has been on-and-off just like we see on Raw and hasn’t been kicked into high gear with these two having that blow-off match. This feud could have been so much more.
As for Tara, it’ll be interesting to see if they do turn her heel eventually or if this will just be the two not seeing eye to eye over the belt. Frankly, I’d find the latter more compelling — seeing two women, regardless of alignment, compete for the belt. The belt here should be the main priority — you don’t need one to be a heel and one to be a babyface — especially after the way they treated the belt on Impact this week. I think having Ang and Tara fight over being champion would rebuild some prestige to the Knockouts Championship.
