Charlotte and Natalya took a 'revolution' kicked off by Paige and Emma at 2014's NXT Arrival to another galaxy with their spectacular war over the vacant Women's Title on the brand's very first TakeOver card, but were robbed of doing the same again when a main roster retread at Payback 2016 again elected to fall back on the f***ing Montreal f***ing Screwjob.

Bret Hart and Ric Flair were ringside for both battles, but were thankfully there more to add sizzle to the steak of the NXT vintage, compared to their active participation in the pay-per-view effort two years later. The screwy finish warranted a rematch between the pair, which again ended shadily after Charlotte utilised a disguised Dana Brooke to help her claim another cheap victory.

Ultimately, the lame duck programme robbed both of recreating a genuine classic in front of the enormous audience that follows WWE week-to-week. Hell In A Cell should finally give them that opportunity. Furthermore, with the heel/babyface dynamic reversed, it's thankfully unlikely they'll try the same finish yet again as the 20th anniversary of the event creeps ever-nearer. What the company can offer though, is an even meaner robbery...
