Paul Heyman motivates Natalya & Tamina on Talking Smack to get a WrestleMania match

Natalya & Tamina were guests on this weekend’s Talking Smack. During this, Natalya cut a promo stating she is tired of being a doormat and tired of being the nice one or the politically correct one.

Natalya says, “We are that directive. We are the directive. Is that good enough for you Kayla [Braxton], was that a good enough answer? Was that politically correct enough for you? Am I being sweet enough, kind enough, awesome enough? Am I pretty enough? Am I enough for you anymore? Or should I knock on Vince’s door and ask him what the hell he wants from me? Because I am tired of being a good girl. Being a good girl, being a doormat, got me nowhere, and doormats get walked on. Bitch. Did I answer your question?”

As of the time of this writing, there is no tag team match for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships for the big two-night event coming in less than a week. This is obviously going to change with the melee of tag teams we saw get into it on Friday Night SmackDown.

This added to the rumor that the first night of Mania will see a number one contender tag team match between multiple teams. The winner of that match will face the champions, Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler, on Night Two.

Natalya defeated Baszler in mere seconds on last Friday’s SmackDown and then after the tag teams were done battling it was Natalya & Tamina as the last one’s standing as the champions retreated up the ramp.

After Natalya’s response to Braxton, the Talking Smack host tried to calm her down by explaining she can see how passionate she is. This is where Paul Heyman stepped in.

Heyman says, “You know I love you right?” Natalya responds with, “I hope.” He continues, “If I haven’t proven to you over the years, with all the support that I’ve given you. With the 3 A.M. text messages back and forth, I love you. I love you as if you were my own sister. I’m gonna tell you something from the bottom of my heart, cut the shit, please. Come on. Stop bitching and moaning and complaining and kvetching about not being in WrestleMania and do something about it. And if knocking on Vince McMahon’s door, or kicking down Vince McMahon’s door, or stretching Vince McMahon down on the ground doesn’t get the job done then smack around every single person on the female roster until there’s no roster left and the [you will be] only females left to be on WrestleMania to represent a female empowerment movement. Just eliminate all the competition that stops you from being on WrestleMania and there shouldn’t be competition for the two of you being on WrestleMania because you have earned your spot on WrestleMania for years, and years, and years and it’s not like you just fell off a cliff. You deserve it and you’ve earned it now.”

He continues by adding in the legacy of both Natalya and Tamina as a motivator to get them to do what they need to do to get on the WrestleMania card and to the thop of the division.

“If your father [Natalya’s] saw you this way he would pull the hair off his chin and the chin off his face and if your grandfather saw what you were doing he’d beat the crap out of your father for raising you this way. And I won’t even say what your father [Tamina’s] would do if he saw you this way. Do something about it, damn it. Stop bitching, moaning, and complaining. You wanna be on WrestleMania, get your asses on WrestleMania. Impose your will as you’ve done for years. That’s what your family and her family has always been about. You’re a member of the Hart family. You’re a member of a dynasty. If they left you off WrestleMania wrongfully, get your asses on WrestleMania. Okay?”

Tamina then gets in the face of Heyman and responds with, “O-Kay.”

Charlotte Flair eyes up the RAW Women’s Title to challenge Asuka at WrestleMania

On last night’s RAW, Charlotte Flair threw out the idea of challenging Asuka and her RAW Women’s Title. Prior to laying out the challenge, Flair says that when she returned from her hiatus that her thought wasn’t to be in the championship picture. In fact, she said she didn’t want to be around the RAW Women’s Title picture because Asuka has worked very hard since becoming champion.

She continues by saying that all she ever wanted was to be a good tag team partner for Asuka and show her that respect. Along the way, Lacey Evans and Charlotte’s father, Ric Flair, got in her way.

What did end up happening was they became Women’s Tag Team Champions for a little over a month. Asuka was not present on this week’s RAW as she suffered a legitimate injury last week after she lost a tooth from a kick to the face by Shayna Baszler.

Flair acknowledges that the SmackDown Women’s Championship match is set for WrestleMania. Bianca Belair chose Sasha Banks. Where does this leave the RAW Women’s Championship for the biggest show of the year? When Asuka returns, Flair plans on issuing the challenge.

Before she could continue, the Women’s Tag Team Champions made their way out. Baszler let Flair know that this year’s road to WrestleMania isn’t what she is used to. Jax added the notion that Flair is no longer the power in the RAW Women’s division and the power has shifted. She says it will be either Baszler or more likely herself that will face Asuka at WrestleMania.

This encounter led to a match between Basler and Flair. Flair had to overcome the numbers game as Jax did everything she could to try and distract her. After the Natural Selection, Flair was able to get the win.

As for Jax, she was able to pick up a win for herself earlier in the night as she defeated Naomi via pinfall after delivering a powerbomb.

Naomi & Lana are still awaiting their shot at the tag team championships, but who will end up being the champions when they do? Jax & Baszler need to get through the team of Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez this week on NXT first. In a WWE Exclusive, the champions deliver a message for their challengers on Wednesday.

Due to Flair spending years on the SmackDown brand, she hasn’t held the RAW Women’s Championship since she dropped it to Bayley in February 2017. With WrestleMania still weeks away, there could be the option to include Rhea Ripley as she is coming soon to RAW.

Who do you think will end up facing Asuka at WrestleMania? Is it going to be a singles match or do you think we may get a Triple Threat? Leave your thoughts below.

Bianca Belair picks Sasha Banks to face at WrestleMania for the SmackDown Women’s Title

Bianca Belair has made it official that she has chosen to go against Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women’s Title at WrestleMania. From winning the Royal Rumble match in January, Belair had an important decision to make. Which champion should she go after?

She stands front and center in the ring alongside authority figures Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville to give her answer. Belair starts by saying the choices that one makes defines who they are and her choice is clear. As she is about to make the announcement, Reginald interrupts her.

Reginald declares that Belair is special and says she is living her dreams. However, he stays strong in his stance that if she chooses to face Banks then her dreams will become a quick nightmare. Banks then enters the ring and pushes Reginald to the side after reminding him that he has been told to never speak for her.

Banks says that she isn’t just the champion but she is the standard. If Belair wants to make history and be the topic of conversation then she would choose her to face at WrestleMania. She continues saying that she doesn’t believe that Belair is the EST because she herself is the best. This would make her number one and would make Belair second best.

Belair said that she is going to make Banks eat her words on the grandest stage of them all. Confidently, she says she is going to take Banks’ title and will go on to prove that she is the b-E-S-T of WWE.

“So Sasha, [obligatory point to the WrestleMania sign] it’s on!!”

Also on this week’s SmackDown, Liv Morgan faced Tamina in a singles match. Tamina picked up the win by delivering a Samoan Drop following up by driving Morgan into the mat.

Check back in with Diva Dirt for further news on SmackDown and WrestleMania which will take place on April 10 & April 11.
