Flair says they took two big spots from Sasha/Charlotte HIAC

[héad.casé]

"They took two huge spots out of the match, during the match, because they were afraid Sasha [Banks] was going to get hurt. If the original plan had been, there were two things and I don't want to say what they were, but you can only imagine. One of them involved a moonsault."

Is he implying Charlotte was going to moonsault off the top of the cell?

Kurt Angle is somewhere very disappointed.

Probably, I mean on Raw Charlotte did a corkscrew moonsault to the outside onto a standing Sasha.... I would not be surprised to learn they were trying to push Charlotte moonsaulting off the cell.

I refuse to believe they were going to do a moonsault off the cell unless there was a giant crash pad.

More likely just from the top rope through a table or something.

Softie banks can't keep up with a real women

She could have moonsaulted from halfway up the cage through the table instead of the powerbomb spot.

That's more believable. I also can see that going wrong extremely easily, so if so it was properly nixed.

Flair forgot to mention that the moonsault was Kurt Angle's idea, and it was shot down because Vince had no idea how Kurt managed to find his way to the booking meeting.

Meltzer said the same as well although he didn't specify what the moves were.

If I remember the report right, powerbomb spot at the start was supposed to be Sasha getting thrown from the top of the and coming back to fight like Foley did but was axed for safety reasons. I seem to remember the moonsault spot was supposed to be from the top rope to the floor but was mixed because of lack of space.

Eh Flair should have kept this to himself. Kinda feels like it's throwing Sasha under the bus.

Nah, I think is the contary, before the match everyone was concerned that Sasha would have killed herself while doing stupid spots, so I'm glad that reason won in this match (at least in the spots)

[魔界5号]

I'm guessing the other one was a Ganso Bomb on top of the cage that would cause Sasha to fall through the roof and crash through 3 flaming tables.

Throwing her under a bus was one of the spots that got nixed.

Near fall!

I doubt the match could have been saved. It feel short of a main even spectacle. It was a nice experiment, but it failed miserably. There's a place for women on the card, just in a lower position.

I read reports before the match that Charlotte wanted to moonsault off the top of the cage and Vince nixed it immediately. She would probably get to the top and shit herself, that cage is huge.

I'd like to imagine them sitting down to talk about spots, Charlotte suggesting that, and Vince McMahon just gets up and leaves without saying a word like he did when someone pitched Heidenreich as an unfrozen Nazi.

Now I'm envisioning Kurt routinely showing up for said meetings, barely obscured by the coat rack he's trying to hide behind, wearing this face:
