Nice Final Match
So that's why you've been so vague about the 'Ultimate Humiliation' Event. Didn't see that coming.
But since we're getting technical about the contract. I'm curious about a couple of things. How could Paige agree to the 'no shoes' stipulation to the match without knowing all the details? Was that something that was just agreed upon separately? And also, why is everyone still wearing a thong? If you're in a match where your opponent is trying to rip your clothes off wouldn't you want to wear something more conservative? I get that Paige's thong allowed for the scene where Stephanie clawed at her ass. But even if she was completely confident that she was going to win wouldn't she want to wear underwear that protected her modesty? I'm not talking boxer shorts or anything but maybe just some regular panties instead of a skimpy thong.
Also, you said underwear is harder to get off than upper clothing when Paige removed Stephanie bra. I respectfully disagree. Yes, the opponent will fight harder to keep it from being removed. But shirts have to go over the arms. A strapless bra is nothing compared to that. Also, pants and shorts have always proven to be tricky to remove in bra and panties match. When an opponent is thrashing around and kicking her legs its extremely difficult to remove her bottoms. A skimpy thong can easily be ripped off. Just putting that out there.
Now that that's out the way. That was a fantastic match to end the series on.
Stephanie played the villain perfectly. She orchestrated the attack backstage, she exploited the injury throughout the match, she attacked Paige right away with the cheap shot, she stomped on Paige's crotch, the clawed at her ass and she brought her over to the commentary table for some extra humiliation that ended up backfiring.
And on that matter, I was amused that you brought back the old, perverted Jerry 'the King' Lawler. But I'm a little disappointed that he never shouted his "PUPPIES" catchphrase when Stephanie pulled Paige's top off. I get that he was caught off guard by the situation and that scene was still great but it would have been absolutely perfect if Jerry had shouted "PUPPIES!" in there somewhere.
Once again, my Pale Princess Paige proves that she's unstoppable. She can't be beaten. Since this story started she's won every match she's been in. It reminds me of that old quote from the Heath Ledger movie
'A Knight's Tale'. Adhemar: "How would you beat him?" Fence: "With a stick. While he slept. But on a horse, with a lance? That man is unbeatable." That's the same case with Paige. In matches like this, Paige is unbeatable. Stephanie's 'stick' is her crooked contract that finally gave her the upper hand over Paige. But we'll get to that later...
Anyway, Paige was great in the match as well. Loved the fan interaction bit where she took drinks from the crowd and made Stephanie an unwilling participant in a wet t-shirt contest. That's what she gets for wearing a white shirt. I also enjoyed the bit where Paige poured soda in Stephanie's pants. It just showed how Paige was attacking Stephanie on two fronts. Physically and mentally. All the humiliation that Paige heaped on Stephanie during the match caused the Billion Dollar Princess' mind to practically break and that's how Paige won. That, and by getting Stephanie so worked up that she ended up fingering herself in the middle of the ring for everyone to see.
You had a great villain Stephanie and a great hero Paige to go up against her. They both pulled out all the stops in the match and that resulted in it being absolutely incredible.
Now we've got ultimate humiliation. Stephanie finally has the upper hand on Paige and now I'm wondering how she's going to get out of it. Reminding Stephanie of her own humiliation at Extreme Rules will only make things worse. Paige could get angry instead of embarrassed when she's stripped naked but I doubt that would work out well either. Maybe as Stephanie starts to 'play' with Paige, she can turn the tables and draw McMahon so she gets embarrassed alongside her. If Paige is going down (I could make a dirty pun there but I won't) hopefully she can bring Stephanie down (or off... could help myself) with her. Either way, I guess I'll be seeing my pale princess in all her glory in the final chapter of this legendary series.
