If they do Dana & Bianca, they have to rebuild Dana as a credible threat.

They're going to have to have her squash local enhan1 talent. Get a clean win against some established wonen..


They can't just do Dana- Bianca at Survivor Series. Although that's what they'll probably do.

There were probably genuine mechanical issues with the plane that caused the delay, but I bet some of them weren’t happy with the situation with how it was handled too.

From what I’ve heard, the superstars are treated extremely well in SA during their trips - but they are giving a laundry list of things not to say or do. Basically they are like Disney Cast Members with a shite ton more compensation.

This makes complete sense. I saw a video of a few of them getting off the plane at JFK and they looked annoyed/tired/pissed off. If they didn't pay Vince and then held up the plane, Vince has 200+ reasons to rip up the contract. I don't think we'll hear anything until WWE property (set/ring/merchandise) are also safely out of the country. From his side of things he could have put the final nail in that deal's coffin by jetting off with his inner circle and leaving everyone else behind.

Also fascinating how NXT talent didn't show up until literally seconds before the Bailey/Cross match. Hence the switch from English to McAfee and NXT referees since it sounds like Little Naitch took over leading a ton of the production.

There were rumors that Vince had some sort of dispute with the Saudis. Money issues would make sense.

I would imagine a match like that would happen at the Saturday NXT event. They've already said the old Takeover format is dead. I believe the faces for Wargames are 1 short...it would make complete sense to slot her into that spot instead of a 1-on-1. I think we're also going to see a men's traditional SS elimination match with NXT vs WWE or do it under three way rules with the three brands each having a team.
