If Nikki Bella is able and 100% healthy, do this. Hell, do it even if she’s only 85% good to go on Saturday. This whole Fatal-4-Way for the Women’s Tag Titles exists for 2 reasons: Firstly, to get these women on the weekender full stop. Second, surely to give Nikki and Brie a big title winning celebration now they’re reunited as a team.

You've got to feel slightly sorry for Nia Jax and Lash Legend if that happens, but they’ll be fine longer term. It's not like Nikki and Brie are going to be champions forever, or something. Besides, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss are always there as babyface backup if WWE wants to script a title change but doesn't have that much confidence in The Bellas day of.

Repeat: If Nikki's good to go, then there'd be nothing wrong with handing the twins a cheery victory.

One gets the feeling that it's only a matter of time before Flair and Bliss turn on one another anyway. They've been fab as a double act, but the end goal for their union was a feud. WWE pretty much pressed pause on that because they were getting so over with fans as a duo, so the fact they've lasted so long is a major compliment to both.

In a perfect world, it'd be Valkyria who'd take the fall from The Bellas so Jax and Legend can demand a rematch for titles they were never "fairly beaten" for. The big sell for this pitch is simply gifting Nikki and Brie a feel good moment.
