As mentioned earlier, everything in the women’s WarGames match from the moment Iyo Sky jumped off the top of the cage with a bin on her head was class.

From that moment, everyone went all out: Asuka misted Shotzi and hit a missile dropkick on Becky Lynch, the heels tied up Bianca Belair and Lynch and hit quadruple dropkicks on them, Charlotte Flair moonsaulted off the top of the cage, Becky and Charlotte made up, and everyone hit finishers galore.

That second half of WarGames was a perfect showcase for everyone, with all eight women getting opportunities to shine. Belair flashed her insane strength. Iyo went aerial. Shotzi got a little crazy. Bayley was both the firefighter, putting out the flames, and ultimately the fall gal for her team.

Becky and Charlotte reuniting was a great little moment as well, giving fans a rare happy ending to years-long animosity, playing out in front of a live audience. Brush past that opening half and there’s a really good little WarGames match in there.
