Apparently WWE's big plans for the Women's Tag belts after Mania were for the IIconics to feud with the Bellas over the belts.
Would explain why the Bellas teased several times they'd only return if it was for a tag title feud (and likely a tag title reign) and why Bayley & Sasha's reign was abruptly cut short. Might also explain why the IIconics title reign has been terrible since WWE never bothered coming up with a real Plan B for them once the Bellas stuff wasn't possible. From Nikki Bella on a recent episode of the Bellas podcast show: Quote:

Interesting note: Smackdown is listed as "age 15+" on DVR, so maybe PG is over for real.

She basically wedged her way into his gimmick and was heavily in favour of the saccharine "family man" gig to the point where I think she was more or less responsible for his retirement. I have no idea how true it is or how bad it was but it has been said a lot. I think she was a bit like Buff Bagwell's mum or Diana Hart.
Steamboat should have gotten Snuka to deal with it. |

Yeah I forgot about that. Was that where he sent the plane tickets back the day before the show or was that Tony Atlas? "I'm sorry I can't do the show, Bonnie told me I have other plans." |

Bad - after his comedy set, we were near the end of the line, dude in front of us peppered him with inane ass questions. He was short, but not impolite by any means. He was tired and that happens. Phenomenal - we had VIP prior to the show, we were near the front of the line, B dressed up in a Cactus Jill style getup, complete with matching leggings. He LOVED her and gave her a big real hug and all the time she wanted to talk. It was awesome. |

According to the Observer and Fightful, WWE is currently working on major plans for NXT and their house shows on Saturdays. Main reason is due to them feeling worried over AEW's potential as a competitor.
According to the Observer, WWE has been in recent talks with FS1 to have NXT air on the network in order to directly compete against AEW's weekly show. Fightful hinted that WWE is also working on plans to counter AEW's PPVs on Saturdays with Network specials on those days and likely them leaning a lot more on their partner companies to help out. |

I heard FDM is afraid to stand up for himself. A “coward” if you will. But I will make my own determination based on what he does next.

Apparently the official reason why Sami Callihan beat Tessa Blanchard at Slamminversary was due to Impact officials thinking fans would turn on Tessa had she won and ruin the company's big plans for her going forward.
