Big Bad Blog Video Theater-Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross vs Kabuki Warriors

Here's the match video of Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross defending the Women's Tag Team Championships against Kabuki Warriors on last night's episode of RAW. I did not expect the titles to change hands. The mistake was having Alexa and Nikki win the titles last week. I'll get into that in a minute. They go to a commercial 30 seconds into the match and that always kills the crowd because they don't do anything during the break. We come back to a rest hold. The turning point of the match is when Kairi hits Nikki with a cross body to the floor and then follows it with her insane elbow. Alexa breaks it up. That deflated the crowd. Asuka made a big mistake following Alexa to the floor and getting run into the ring post. And that left Kairi in the ring alone. Nikki hit her neck breaker followed by Alexa's Twisted Bliss finisher for the win. At least they didn't have her whiff a punch this time. Last week someone suggested that Alexa can save the Women's Tag Team Championships because Vince cares about her. And that is the disconnect with fans. You can tell by last night's reaction that fans don't want to see Alexa wrestle because she isn't any good. And because of her concussion history, she can't take any bumps. It's not even a heel reaction because they aren't booing. They're just sitting there. Fans won't accept Alexa as a wrestler anymore. She was better this week because she didn't do much. But I don't know how long the WWE can present this tag team as champs with no reaction. Eventually this team will split up when Nikki catches on to Alexa's deceit. But that probably should have happened already. Nikki already looks like a dope. As I said last week, don't be surprised if The IIconics regain the titles when they return as the WWE is touring Australia in the fall. Enjoy the video!
