As a direct fallout of Alexa Bliss’ and Bayley's altercation with a kendo stick, Kurt Angle stipulated that the two would face one another in a ‘Kendo Stick on a Pole Match’. Yes, last year, Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks changed the face of women's wrestling forever and this year, Alexa Bliss and Bayley will be part of this embarrassment of a match.
This contest is oddly reminiscent of Vince Russo’s gimmick matches in WCW, such as the 'Judy Bagwell on a Pole' match. Happy Mother’s Day, Buff Bagwell.
