Here's the video of the 2023 Women's War Games Match from last night's WWE show in Chicago. This is basically the first hour of last night's show. The teams are Bayley, Asuka, IYO SKY and Kairi Sane vs Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair, Shotzi and Becky Lynch. The big problem with this kind of match is it doesn't "start" until all the participants are in the ring. So that means the first half of the match is meaningless and a complete waste of time. Commentary tries to sell this as do as much damage as you can before the match starts. But that doesn't work. I would also like to see the WWE put weapons in the ring before the match so no one has to remember to grab weapons from under the ring. For example, Charlotte forgot to grab stuff when she came out. Asuka made up for it though. They can save a lot of time by having weapons there when the match begins. At least we got some big spots like IYO and a garbage can from the top of the cage. She did the same thing in NXT in 2019. However, I could have done without Charlotte's awful moonsault. The one thing I didn't like was Charlotte and Becky hugging because that guaranteed that the babyfaces would win. The conflict between them would have made this match more interesting. After that the end was a foregone conclusion. Bayley took the fall as I thought she might. I guess a War Games match is one big timewaster. Remember the War Games matches took up over two hours and the rest of the show was kind of meh. That's a lot of timewasting. And the big surprise at the end of the show didn't make up for the mediocrity. Enjoy the video!
