The reveal of Mickie James as La Luchadora is big news indeed. While it is almost certain that during the previous segments, it hadn’t actually been her under the mask; the pairing of James and Bliss does work beautifully.

Bliss is known as ‘Baby Trish’ backstage, and Mickie's best-known program had been as Trish Stratus’ crazy stalker fan. More importantly, it gives the Smackdown Women's Division a good worker at the very top of the division, as we discovered from James’ match against Asuka in Toronto.

Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler is a legend in Memphis, and ever since he got taken off the pre-shows, has been missed by the WWE Universe. After all, he was the voice of wrestling’s most popular era.

Even in this limited role, it’s always great to see Lawler make a comeback to WWE.
