This one will be crazy.  Tom Phillips, Corey Graves and the Coach are on the call.  Michael Cole gets the men's match.

All the ladies got good reactions.  There is love for Alexa Bliss for sure.

It started crazy.  Ember destroyed Sasha but Lana came in and took her out.  She wanted to climb the ladder but Natty came in and dumped her on the ladder.  She then destroyed Naomi.  Like it hurt to watch destroyed.

There is now way I can describe all that is going on.  Mike Johnson is a better man than I.

Cool spot saw Naomi and Ember fight over the Ladder and Becky tried to scale it.  That didn't end well for her but it was creative as hell.

Sasha stacked Lana on top of Ember and crushed them.  She climbed the ladder and the crowd wasn't for her.  Interesting.  Charlotte stopped her and they faced off.  Somehow Becky ended up alone on the ladder and the crowd popped.  They liked her.  Alexa stopper her and went up and they liked her too.  Becky and Sasha fought for it while Alexa got involved.  Lana set up her own ladder but other women came in and it was bedlam.  Natty killed Sasha into a ladder and that dropped Becky to the mat.  Charlotte came in and set up her own ladder in the corner.  She blasted Ember into it.  She took out Lana, the went after Alexa but got nailed with a Code Red.  Lana and Alexa faced off.  Lana hit a nice kick to the head of Alexa and locked on the Accolade.  Go Lana.  Then up she went.  She got half way up but Naomi springboarded onto the ladder.  She had the case but the ladder was too far away.  Becky took her out and moved the ladder.  Up she went.  She grabbed it but Charlotte ran up and met her.  They slugged it out but Bliss pushed down the ladder.  Charlotte speared Bliss and up she went.  Sash came in and stopped her.  Backstabber.  Up she went but Naomi stopped her.  And then back came Lana.  Up she went.  Natty came in and laid her out.  She went up and the fans booed.  Moon took her out and they cheered. Up she went but Charlotte stopped her and speared her into the ladder in the corner.  In came Becky.  Becksploder on Charlotte.  Up she went, and the crowd was hot for it.  But Bliss came in and dumped her down.  Alexa came in and grabbed it and the fans popped huge when she got the contract.  As I said in the Tip Sheet, she is the best one to carry the briefcase because she is so good at her character.

This was a fantastic.  They all worked their butts off and had a great match.  And, the right person won.

In the back, Kurt Angle was happy that Alexa won.  But Paige said we can win the male match.  Then Baron Corbin came in and said that Kurt Angle has to bring both contracts back to Raw.  Paige then mocked him for losing when tried to cash in MITB last year.  Ouch. Angle said, "Good One" to Paige.  It was a good one.

Roman Reigns vs. Jinder Mahal is next.  Will Reigns get more boos than Jinder?

Sumil came out in a wheelchair, all messed up.  He could barely announce Jinder.  After he did the intro. Jinder came out and rolled him to the ring.  So, expect Sumil to get involved!

If you wondered if the fans in Chicago hate Roman more than even Jinder, wonder no more.  They booed Reigns before his music even hit, and kept it up when it did.  Such is life!

Wonder how much bored the fans are?  They are chanting for CM Punk, as Roman was in control.  Now they are chanting boring.  Now they are chanting NXT.

Reigns missed a move on the apron and up popped Sumil to ram him into the post.  Jinder is in control now.  The fans are chanting Rusev Day.  Now they are chanting This is Awful.  

It isn't awful but such is life.  The fans don't like either one of these guys.  I should be clear, the loud fans outside of camera view don't.  In camera?  They don't seem that upset.  Jinder is still in control.  I won't even bother with what they are chanting now.  Suffice to say they don't want to see this match.  If I were Jinder I would lock on a twenty minute choke hold.  I feel bad for the workers.  These two are not like me though, they are trying.

To be fair, some people in camera view just did do the wave.  I guess they are having fun.  

Jinder got a two when he blocked a Superman.  Jinder has blood on his face.  Looks like he got clipped near the eye.

Jinder went for the Khallas but Roman got a Superman punch for two.  By the way, since the fans hate him because they think he is booked as Superman, maybe it's time to change the name of that move.  Or not.

Roman went for the Spear but Jinder kicked him in the face and threw him into the post.  Roman came back when Sumil got up.  Jinder tried to take advantage but Roman punched Sumil.  Then Jinder.  Then he speared Singh.  As he came in the ring Jinder rolled him up for a two but Reigns kicked out and hit a Spear for the win.  The fans that like Reigns finally got to cheer, and they did.

They had a really good match.  The fans reacting, if you didn't really listen to what they were saying, actually added to the atmosphere and made it seem important.  Not for nothing but to those of you that are booing, you didn't achieve your purpose.  I give both guys credit for working so hard when they could have copped an attitude given their reception.
