1. How Much The Opening Segment Reeked Of Austin Vs. McMahon

That opening skit between Stephanie McMahon and Becky Lynch was like an Austin vs. McMahon reprise at times. Steph's disingenuous concern for Becky's wellbeing, the fact Bex could see through her phoney words and the end attack all reminded one of classic Attitude era goodness.

It had to be deliberate.

Stephanie has the same dishonest air as her father's character did, and Lynch shares some bad ass qualities Stone Cold would've been proud of. She's an anti-heroic megastar who doesn't pander, and she's not afraid of the consequences if she defies authority.

Post-Lynch vs. Ronda Rousey, does this mean we're getting a summer time feud between Becky and Steph?
