The faces having the advantage makes it just a bit interesing. Did they get the advantage because Candices team is basically 5 people when u include Indi? Is someone going to betray the babyface team? IMO there are interesting questions to raise as to why they got the advantage more so than if the heels got it and it being just a complete give that the babyfaces win. My guess is Indi or another Ghostface infiltrates the cage before or during the opening stage, therefore flipping the advantage to Team Candice for the entire match. |

I think people are overthinking the whole babyface advantage thing, to be honest. It's probably just as simple as Raquel starting out for the heel side, and tossing two of the faces around for 10 minutes while looking strong. Because if the faces win, I assume she's gonna be a filler challenger for Io until Toni gets more established as a heel. Because if Toni pins Io like some are speculating, she isn't gonna win the title in the actual title match down the road, because NXT generally doesn't rush the title onto a heel unless they get super hot. There's a long record of that in NXT. Bianca, Io, and Dakota were all getting massive reactions as heels, but NXT refused to put the title on them.

Ripley and Raquel Gonzalez did their "WARGAMES" yells perfectly. Lumis not saying anything and Shirai corpsing were funny. Escobar:"WAR-GAMS!" Moon's pause was awkward. |

Also, I love how they're having fun with the meme and that Regal joins in too.

Was just watching last year's Women's War Games match and realized that in kayfabe everything that happened is Rhea Ripley's fault. Her decision to choose Mia Yim over Dakota Kai created a giant chain of events that reverberates to today...
First, Dakota brutally attacks Mia Yim(the person Rhea chose over Dakota), taking her out of War Games. Dakota takes her spot and brutally assaults Tegan Nox. Candice spends the next few months helping Tegan and fighting on her behalf, only to get brutalized for her efforts. Dakota and Tegan are embroiled in a heated feud and Raquel(who like Dakota had been passed over) helps Dakota defeat Tegan at Takeover: Portland.
Meanwhile, Candice finally had enough of being the "big sister" of the NXT locker room, who helped people like Tegan and got nothing for it, she turned Heel as well, aligning with her husband. Tegan tries to repair her friendship with Candice, only to further alienate her, resulting in Candice brutally assaulting Tegan and re-tearing her ACL.
As for Mia, the attack by Dakota and being denied her opportunity at War Games, created feelings of bitterness within her, laying the foundations for her to turn on the company and become Reckoning of Retribution.

And people said Shayna was the heel in that feud  Rhea truly is an evil genius. |
