Damage CTRL has the power, they have the rage…
On the Nov. 24 go-home episode of SmackDown for Survivor Series Damage CTRL looks stronger than ever as they (Bayley & Asuka) defeated Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair in the main event.
Much like last week, the WarGames participants opened and closed SmackDown this week. But unlike last week, Bayley went at it alone as she went out to confront her WarGames opponents. She stirred the pot between Lynch and Flair which tested their fallout of a friendship over the past couple of years. This led to the main event match being booked.
Moments later, Bayley (who was not expecting herself to be in the match tonight) approached Damage CTRL. Once again the other members of the stable seemed off about Bayley’s presence. IYO SKY felt that Bayley should be in the match and they end up with Asuka being her partner. BESTIES!
Throughout the show we saw tension build between Lynch and Flair. We also saw Belair try to diffuse the situation with Lynch while Shotzi took her time with Flair. When the main event match came, Lynch and Flair both agreed they were “okay.”
The final moments of the match wouldn’t provide any solace to Belair and Shoti who tried to have Flair and Lynch get along all night. Bayley went for the Rose Plant but Lynch countered with a Belly to Back Suplex. At the same time, Flair and Asuka entered the ring. Lynch landed a ManHandle Slam on Bayley, but Flair speared Asuka right into Lynch as she was making the pin. Bayley knocked Lynch into Flair and then rolled Lynch up for the three count.
Post match it seemed Lynch was the most upset about the situation as she rolled out of the ring and went up the ramp leaving her other three WarGames team members in the ring.
We still don’t know who will get the advantage in the WarGames match but Damage CTRL getting this big win shifts the momentum and power. We will find out who was voted to get the advantage on the Survivor Series Kick Off show.
Diva Dirt will have our predictions up and the Discussion Post for the show to talk about it live!
