Chapter 7 Part 6 | Pre-Release Hype

March 27th 2023. Phoenix, Arizona. Footprint Center. WrestleMania RAW. The Miz welcomed WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Becky Lynch & Lita along with their third wheel Trish Stratus to Miz TV to discuss the 6 Woman Tag Team Match against Damage CTRL this weekend at WrestleMania 39 Saturday. Team Becky did the usual babble because it's just another payday for them. The Ladies came out to passionately fire back. Dakota Kai, IYO SKY and Bayley walked the "get down to business" type of walk all the way to the ring. Ah, The Ladies!

Bayley stressed she's sick of Team Becky acting like it's just another match because to Damage CTRL this is their LIFE. It's what they have been working for since SummerSlam 2022. Trish and Lita have not meant anything for years. Trish interrupted, claiming the tag team title on Lita's shoulder (that she hasn't defended even once) means she's something right now. Bayley continued that to Damage CTRL this match would have been a dream match once upon a time, however now it's the match where they take out two legends and the top star.

Becky actually complimented Dakota and even called IYO one of the greatest NXT Women's Champions ever. She spoke truth...but once again, it felt like backhanded compliments...Becky retrying her dissension stir...right? Becky accused Damage CTRL of accomplishing nothing, ending her piece stating the war between her and them will end at WrestleMania Saturday. The two trios came tensely face-to-face, eye-to-eye. Dakota and Lita stared each other down, having some words. My favorite when I was a kid (Lita) and my favorite now (Dakota). That was pretty cool to see. Memories, eh?

That look on Bayley's face during the Dakota and Lita staredown. That look got me worried...NO...sad. I hope she wasn't letting Becky's nonsense that Damage CTRL have done nothing get to her. Dakota and IYO are two of the BEST international STARS in the entire world. They were always destined for success. But Bayley is il Magnifico...she brought Damage CTRL together and to the main roster, while others like Becky were more concerned about their spots. Now, Becky is enabling Trish and Lita to steal the spotlight from this generation.

IYO showed up and showed out in a match against Becky. SKY fought her heart out like Our Captain always does win or loss. Becky sadly won. But this was just a match. A moment in time. Damage CTRL are a united front, passionate and driven. WrestleMania is the victory they have been fighting for. Becky and "friends" are just bitter and angry. Once The Ladies finish this nuisance at WrestleMania Saturday, I believe the division will know true, unadulterated hell courtesy of Damage CTRL. The past 7 months were merely a "compassionate" prelude. I mean, what else do you think could happen?
