Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss vs Sasha Banks vs Nia Jax vs. Emma (Fatal 4-Way Match Preview

Im going to sound like a broken record, but the Fatal Four Way match at No Mercy build is has been ridiculously flawed from the start and has again shined a brighter light on some of the glaring issues that have been ailing the Womens division for quite a while now. My hope is that I'm not the only one  who is noticing the constant contradiction plus mind-boggling booking decisions.

Let's first start with the most perplexing competitor in this match Emma. No disrespect to the actual person playing Emma, but the fact that she is in a championship match in storyline is completely ridiculous and makes WWE just look foolish and insulting to anyone who watches their television show on a week to week basis who is over the age five. I haven't gone back and done a complete factual check the of the record books, but I'm 99% sure Emma has only won 1 actual match over the last year on television maybe even longer. Yes I will admit the booking team has not done her any favors since her debut back 2014 with silly bubble gimmicks and Satino comedy, but she's just hasn't done anything to stand out to me or get over with an audience despite the bad booking; which unfortunately talent just has to do sometimes, and Emma just hasn't gotten it done. I do not think she will win this match; honestly think she was put in this match to take the pin.

Next up is Sasha Banks a former 4  time Womens Champ who is this matches best overall performer easily. Banks also has become extremely popular with a sizable portion of the fans now and should be treated like a legit contender who has a chance to win her title back, but no "The Boss" really isn't being picked by anyone to win this nor should you; WWE really has shown a complete lack of urgency with pushing her as of late and since it's was purposely pointed out several times a few weeks ago when Sasha was defending her newly won title that The Boss has never once successfully defended that title; that  would indicate to me she is not a legit option to win it back here.

The wildcard in all of this of course is Nia Jax who has obviously worked pretty damn hard to get better in the ring and at her general presentation over the last year or so, and let's face it with her overall size plus her being  member of a legendary wrestling family; she's going to get her  opportunities. However I have found the last several weeks of the booking of her character mind-boggling and darn right confusing. I have no idea if she's a face or heel anymore; I don't know when it was established Nia and Bliss were ever real best friends anyway, and why the hell would you book a backstage segment with just the two of them just having a casual conversation just 2 weeks after the so call turn. I honestly can't make sense of it; but she's obviously high on WWE priorities list so it always possible they put do the strap on her.

Finally The Champion Alexa Bliss; who I have the least amount of gripes with her booking. Most times Bliss has been given any chance to leave an imprint on any talking segment on television she does quite well. Obviously there still need to be more improvements in the ring, but considering she's only been in the business for a few years she's definitely passable. She has the look; I suspect WWE will try to make her a Babyface sooner rather than later; she already receiving pretty positive  reception in most markets WWE goes too despite her playing a heel. Which leads me to my prediction is Bliss retaining; WWE has already played enough hot potato with that title. My strong recommend idea is just to keep it on her until it's time for the undefeated Asuka to make her way on Raw and then you tell that story.
