WWE Raw: 10 Things You May Have Missed (Sept 12)
9. Tower Of Doom Spot Was Used At Backlash & On Raw
Before getting started on the meat and potatoes of this point, it's important to establish that the Triple Threat bout involving Bayley, Sasha Banks and Dana Brooke on Raw was excellent. At times, Brooke has looked like a fish out of water on the main roster, but she more than contributed to the quality here.
During the match, Dana was going for a Superplex on Bayley from the top rope. Sneaking in, Sasha Banks then positioned herself for a Powerbomb on Brooke. Commonly, this spot is referred to as the 'Tower Of Doom', and it popular for providing multi-person matches with a hugely dramatic bump.
Those who tuned into Backlash on the WWE Network will have noticed the same spot being used during the Six-Pack Challenge to determine the first ever SmackDown Women's Champion. It's quite strange that two female matches within 24 hours of one another chose to use the Superplex and Powerbomb combo.
Surely the agents in charge of this Triple Threat watched what happened at Backlash. It feels a bit weird that they outright copied the SmackDown girls.
