WWE: Women's Division


Recommended Posts

I'm a regular lurker of this place and was fascinated by the thought of running my own Dynasty series. As a big fan of the Women's Division of the WWE, no matter how poorly they're booked, I thought focusing on them would make a pleasant change to juggling them with the male competitors. As such, this Dynasty is going to be focusing on a new show that has premiered as part of the WWE Universe/Network: The Women's Division. There will be a catchier name somewhere down the line, I just really suck at names.

 

The series will initially feature two titles: the Women's Championship as the Main Event title and the Diva's Championship as the Midcard title. I'm planning to introduce a Tag Team title once the roster has been bolstered somewhat, as I'm currently only going to be using the women on the main roster plus a few faces plucked from NXT.

 

I've used Fleisch's RWC mod for this, plus the "NJPW Faction Packs" by blaustein and extras by FACT_25 for the in-game images.

 

Without further ado:

Alexa Bliss - Alicia Fox - Asuka - Bayley - Becky Lynch -

WWE SmackDown Live!

July 2018, Week 1

 

CEO and brand leader for the Women's Division, Stephanie McMahon makes her entrance and welcomes the audience to a brand new era for SmackDown Live! Finally the women have a stage all of their very own to prove to the world that anything men can do, women can do better. An experienced talker on the mic, Stephanie has the crowd eating out her hand the whole time as she promises to crown a new Divas Champion in a Fatal 4-Way Elimination bout as the main event, as well as the beginning of a tournament to crown the first WWE Women's Champion upon the title's revival.

 

"We have a battle of the veterans with Mickie James up against Natalya, undefeated former NXT Women's Champion Asuka versus two-time SmackDown Women's Champion Naomi and a showdown between Australia's Emma and the Queen herself, Charlotte Flair! Woo!"

 

The commentary team of Renee Young, Lita & Maryse introduce the first match of the evening:

 

WWE Women's Championship Round One Qualifier Match: Mickie James vs. Natalya

The battle between the two veterans of the Women's Division is fast and furious. Both display great ring awareness and Natalya isn't afraid to hide in the ropes to pause the offense by James. Natalya's former partner and current manager Beth Phoenix runs interference on the outside, distracting James enough for a roll-up that scored Natalya a two-count. After an impressive counter on the discus clothesline, James scores a near-fall with a Mick Kick but a comeback from Natalya leads to her being locked in the Sharpshooter and after being dragged away from the ropes, Mickie James is forced to tap out.

 

Natalya def. Mickie James by submission

 

In a backstage interview Carmella isn't shy about taunting ten-year veteran Alicia Fox, who she will be facing in the Divas Championship Fatal 4-Way Elimination match in tonight's main event. She refers to Fox as a "has been" and not an overly successful one at that, pointing out her measly single run as Divas Champion seven years ago.

 

The first WWE Women's Championship qualifier match for next week's show is hyped via a promo video, showing the two competitors: Alexa Bliss and Bayley! Who will advance to the Semi-Finals? Tune in next week to find out!

 

WWE Women's Championship Round One Qualifier Match: Asuka vs. Naomi

The second bout of the evening opens with some vicious offense from Asuka, forcing Naomi to retreat to the safety of the ropes. The match continues at a more open pace with Naomi even pinning Asuka following a Rear View, although Asuka quickly kicks out with a one-count. After a grueling thirteen minute match, Asuka is able to catch Naomi in the Asuka Lock and Naomi reluctantly taps out.

 

Asuka def. Naomi by submission

 

Making her debut on WWE programming, Viper delivers with a bold statement, promising to "crush the wannabes" she's going to be facing in the Fatal 4-Way Elimination match for the Divas Championship. Viper's here to make a name for herself and she isn't going to let anybody get in her way.

 

The second WWE Women's Championship qualifier match for next week's show is hyped via a promo video, promising an explosive battle between its two competitors: Nia Jax and Sasha Banks! Who will emerge victorious and come closer to being crowned WWE Women's Champion? Tune in next week to find out!

 

WWE Women's Championship Round One Qualifier Match: Charlotte Flair vs. Emma

The third and final qualifier match for this week's show starts off with a lock-up, followed by some chain wrestling that shows off the technical prowess of both competitors. The eleven minute match features Emma's best attempts to dethrone the Queen, but in the end it's not quite enough. A vicious spear from the Flair legacy knocks Emma down to the mat and Charlotte is able to cover for the 1-2-3.

The third and final WWE Women's Championship qualifier match for next week's show is featured in another promo video. Beckt Lynch and Dana Brooke will go head-to-head as they try to advance to the Semi Final triple threat matches! How will Brooke fare against the Irish Lass-kicker? Find out next week!

 

Recovering after her tough match against Emma, Charlotte Flair is interviewed by Brie Bella. Bella asks how confident Charlotte feels going into a triple threat match against Asuka and Natalya in two weeks time. Charlotte points out that he's beaten Nattie several times before so she isn't worried but Asuka presents a brand new challenge for her. "Asuka might be the Empress of Tomorrow, but I'm the Queen of this division so if I have to make her bow down... so be it."

 

Main Event: Fatal 4-Way Elimination Match for the Divas Championship

Alicia Fox, Carmella, Summer Rae & Viper all make their way down to the ring, each with the hope as walking out with a championship over their shoulder. The match starts with some heavy offense from Viper which quickly leads to a pinfall on Summer Rae, eliminating her early.

 

Alicia Fox and Carmella form a reluctant alliance to take on the biggest threat in the match but Viper is able to retain control and locks Carmella into a submission move that Fox breaks up. At the eight minute mark it takes both Fox and Carmella to pin Viper, although the ref doesn't see Carmella using the ropes as leverage to score the 1-2-3 over Viper!

 

Quick to seize her opportunity, Carmella gets Alicia Fox down into the corner for a Bronco Buster and continues the offense until Fox is able to counter into a Northern Lights Suplex that gets a pop from the crowd. It isn't enough for the three-count though as Carmella kicks out at two, but a short while later Fox is able to put her down with the Scissor Kick, scoring the 1-2-3!

 

Alicia Fox def. Carmella by pinfall to become WWE Divas Champion

 

Very few people celebrate in style like Alicia Fox, who all but tears up the ringside area in celebration of her first championship victory in seven years. The cameramen all but flee for their lives as she skips around the ring, championship held high above her head and a wide grin on her face. Halfway up the ramp and nursing her back following Fox's finishing move, Carmella looks on at the celebration with disgust which rounds out the show's first episode!

That all takes place on next week's SmackDown Live! Who are your favorites to win?

WWE SmackDown Live!

July 2018, Week 2

 

The second edition of the brand new SmackDown Live! begins in f-a-b-u-l-o-u-s style as Carmella makes her way down to the ring, introducing herself as the Princess of Staten Island and the right Divas Champion who will one day reign over the whole Women's Division as WWE Women's Champion. It's a bold claim but one she fully believes and right now she's not too happy with the current Divas Champion, viewing Alicia Fox as nothing more than a roadblock she has to overcome.

 

Summoned to the ring by Carmella's trash talk, Alicia Fox makes it known that she isn't about to flush away her first championship victory in seven years. From the top of the ramp she announces that she's here to stay as Divas Champion and is more than happy to put Carmella in her place as the newbie way out of her depth during their match in the main event slot. Fox declares that Carmella might be dreaming of a championship opportunity if she wins their match-up, but she shouldn't be getting her hopes up. "You'll only be disappointed, boo."

 

WWE Women's Championship Round One Qualifier Match: Becky Lynch vs. Dana Brooke

From there it's right into the first match of the show as Becky Lynch takes on Dana Brooke. The Irish Lass-Kicker receives a big pop from the crowd but Brooke's reception is far more lukewarm and her attempts at offense during the match are met with jeers. Despite Brooke's superior strength and power, it's ultimately a relatively easy match-up for Lynch who picks up the victory with a Dis-Arm-Her just shy of the ten minute mark, earning a positive response from the crowd in the process.

 

Becky Lynch def. Dana Brooke by submission

 

In a backstage interview, Natalya recounts Charlotte Flair's comments from the previous week that she will be easy to defeat in their triple threat match the following week. Natalya promises to bring her veteran expertise and "school" Charlotte in a manner that will make the Flairs shut their traps and bow down to the Harts for good.

 

Mickie James & Naomi vs. Emma & Viper

Naomi and Mickie James display good tag team coordination early on and maintain momentum over Emma. After a pinfall attempt is broken up by the Viper, Emma's tag team partner throws Naomi from the ring and clears Emma's path to make a tag to her. From there Viper leads a heavy offense against Mickie James who is forced to use her speed and agility to her advantage. She scores a near-fall on Viper who is able to kick out after a two-count and tags Naomi in while Emma tags herself back into the match, eager to prove herself as championship material.

 

Having Naomi's Rear View well scouted, Emma counters the move into a power-bomb and while her opponent tries to recover, catches her in the Emma Lock. Mickie James' attempt to interfere is interrupted by Viper who pulls her off the apron and onto the concrete floor outside of the ring. With no chance of getting to the ring and her tag team partner out of action, Naomi is forced to tap out and grant Emma a win under her belt.

 

Despite suffering a loss, Mickie James comes out as the MVP of the match, having impressed the crowd with her ring awareness and resilience despite the heavy offense.

 

Emma def. Naomi by submission

 

Choosing to ignore Natalya's comments from earlier, Charlotte Flair instead looks to the future and predicts that she will be facing Becky Lynch in the finals at the PPV for the WWE Women's Championship. She is once again dismissive of the threat that Natalya and Asuka propose to her title opportunity and says that having worked with Becky in NXT, she has her well scouted and is confident that she'll be able to score a clean victory over her to claim that coveted championship.

 

WWE Women's Championship Round One Qualifier Match: Nia Jax vs. Sasha Banks

This David vs. Goliath battle starts with Banks delivering a heavy offense for little reward. Jax is hardly affected by any of her best moves and easily flings Banks off from an early attempt at the Bank Statement. From there Banks is forced onto the defensive as Jax uses her power advantage to start a heavy offense, throwing her opponent around the ring. An attempt to create separation by rolling out of the ring provides Banks mere seconds before Jax is upon her again and swings her against the barricade before pushing her back into the ring. A last-ditch attempt at the Bank Statement is foiled by Jax grabbing the ropes and from there its mere seconds before Jax scores the 1-2-3 with a Running Senton.

 

Nia Jax def. Sasha Banks by pinfall

 

As Banks is helped to the back by officials, Jax grabs a mic and taunts her from the ring, claiming that this is as close to the title picture she will ever be and it was "an honor" to take that away from her. Banks' attempts to return to the ring are resisted by officials and Jax simply laughs her off.

 

At the announcers desk, Maryse is quick to declare that Jax is going to go on to crush her opposition in both the triple threat match and the final at the PPV. Lita isn't so sure, believing that Asuka must be the favorite to win given her pedigree from remaining undefeated in NXT and holding its Women's Championship for a record-holding amount of days. Renee Young keeps the peace between the two and introduces the next match-up for the night and the final round one qualifier in the tournament:

 

WWE Women's Championship Round One Qualifier Match: Alexa Bliss vs. Bayley

In a match that displayed great chemistry between the opponents, Alexa Bliss and Bayley bring everything they have to progress to the semi final triple threat match. Bliss works a crafty game, not afraid to escape to the outside and try to regroup. A pinfall attempt from Bliss is dismissed when the ref catches her using the ropes for leverage. The tantrum Bliss throws at the ref gives Bayley enough to catch her in a fast roll-up pin, successfully keeping her shoulders down for the 1-2-3!

 

Bayley def. Alexa Bliss by pinfall

 

Infuriated by her loss, Bliss jumps Bayley while her back is turned and proceeds to beat her to the mat before she's pulled off and Bayley is helped out of the ring. Bayley might be the one progressing to the semi finals but Bliss is the one with something to prove and she won't be letting the 'Huggable One' get in her way.

 

A video package hypes the accomplishments of Asuka, not just in NXT but around the world. She promises to become WWE Women's Champion and retain the title forever. She isn't scared of Charlotte or Natalya and will gladly take on anybody who wants to face her, just to prove herself as the true leader of WWE's Women's Division.

 

Main Event: Alicia Fox vs. Carmella, with the stipulation that if Carmella wins she gets a title opportunity at the WWE Divas Championship

 

The trash talking Carmella and the Divas Champion Alicia Fox come face-to-face in a match that starts as a scrap-fest, the two female superstars pushing each other against the ropes and into the turnbuckles. The ref breaks them up several times before Carmella is able to get Fox tied up in the ropes and deliver several kicks to her back. Continuing to sell the hurt to her back, Fox plays defense until she's able to roll out of the ring and avoid a Bronco Buster from Carmella.

 

Taking advantage of the opening, Fox returns to the ring with renewed offense and floors Carmella. Heading to the ropes, Fox begins to climb them --

 

When Lana, Maria Kanellis and Tamina rush down the ramp and into the ring! Dropping back to the mat, Fox defends herself from Tamina's blows while Lana and Maria take advantage of the still-downed Carmella. With chaos erupting inside the ring, the ref is forced to call the match off.

 

Match ends in a no contest following interference from Lana, Maria Kanellis and Tamina

 

With both Carmella and Fox dispatched from the ring, the three female superstars stand tall. Lana grabs a mic and declares their intentions -

they were unhappy being overlooked for the WWE Divas Championship in the first show and have decided to unite until one of them is crowned champion. They will continue to bring the fight to Fox and Carmella week after week unless they are given what they want. The trio continue to taunt the crowd and their fellow competitors as the second episode of SmackDown Live's new era comes to a close.

Emma's made a bold statement and she isn't about to let any losses slow her journey to championship glory!</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44156" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">WWE Women's Championship Semi-Final: Bayley vs. Becky Lynch vs. Nia Jax</span></strong><p> </p><p> The three fierce competitors faced off to start the match and an unmentioned alliance was quickly formed between Bayley and Becky Lynch to get the biggest threat out of the equation. Nia Jax was more than capable of holding her own though and was able to dominate the first half of the match by keeping her opponents down on the mat. Near-falls followed a Samoan Drop on Bayley and a Running Senton on Lynch but the third party in the match was able to break up both attempts. </p><p> </p><p> After some solo offense against Jax and a distraction from <strong>Alexa Bliss</strong> appearing on the ramp, Bayley was flung from the ring into the ringside barrier and was left down and defenseless. Taking advantage of her opponent's distraction, Lynch caught Jax into a modified Dis-Arm-Her which brought the Hybrid Athlete down to the mat and forced her to tap out, much to the roaring crowd's approval and solidifying Becky Lynch as the MVP of the match!</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Becky Lynch def. Nia Jax by submission</strong></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Backstage, <strong>Brie Bella</strong> interviews Sasha Banks who is ecstatic after Nia Jax's loss. She promises to prove to Jax at <em>WWE: PowerPlay</em> that she was a fool for messing with any of WWE's Four Horsewomen and especially The Boss. She states that one day she's going to claim the WWE Women's Championship for herself and establish herself as the franchise player and future of the Women's Division.</p><p> </p><p> Ahead of the second semi-final triple threat match, Becky Lynch joins <strong>Renee Young</strong>, <strong>Lita </strong>& <strong>Maryse </strong>at the commentary table. Young and Lita congratulate Lynch on her win - which Maryse refers to as a 'fluke' and one that Nia Jax will rectify once she's flattened Sasha Banks at <em>WWE: PowerPlay</em>. Lynch is quick to brush Maryse off and declares she's excited to face any of the three competitors competing in the next match at the finals.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44156" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">WWE Women's Championship Semi-Final: Asuka vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Natalya</span></strong><p> </p><p> All three women came into this triple threat match with something to prove and it showed in their performances. Stealing the show with a technical masterpiece, the match was open and featured strong offense from all three superstars, all of whom refused to stay down for any significant amount of time. Taunting from both Natalya ("The best there is...") and Flair ("Woo!") almost costs them as Asuka takes advantage and scores near-falls, forcing her opponents to drop the games and focus on taking down the competition.</p><p> </p><p> The three submission experts are put to work when Asuka breaks up Natalya's sharpshooter on Charlotte Flair and a short while later Natalya interferes with Flair's Figure 8 on Asuka. Winded and reeling from the interference, Flair rolls out to ringside leaving Asuka to dominate Natalya. Within moments the Japanese superstar was able to get the Asuka Lock fixed in on Natalya and with Charlotte down outside the ring, Natalya is forced to tap out!</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Asuka vs. Natalya by submission</strong></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> As Asuka celebrates her place in the finals for the WWE Women's Championship, Becky leaves her place at the commentary booth and slides into the ring. The two opponents at the upcoming PPV face off for several moments before Becky extends a hand. The tension builds for several seconds until Asuka shakes it, establishing a level of respect between the two competitors ahead of the tournament final!</p>
