Total Divas Island - Total Divas recap for November 1, 2017

At SmackDown Live, Natalya tells Carmella and Naomi that there will be an announcement tonight for the SmackDown Live Women's Division. Natalya says that things are getting better and better and that it is becoming a great time to be a woman in the WWE. Later, it is announced that there will be a Women's Money In The Bank Ladder Match for the women of SmackDown Live - a first in the history of WWE.

Trinity makes it back home, which is bigger than when we last saw her and Jon Uso, as they have moved back to Pensacola, Florida. They head to a restaurant for dinner, but it ends up being a drive-thru restaurant. Trinity is not happy.



Brie is at home with Birdie, and Brie is enjoying being a new mom. She is also glad that Bryan has paternity leave, as she cannot imagine the first few months without Bryan. Nikki, who is now engaged to John Cena and is now healing her neck, shows up to visit. Bryan knows that he will have to head back to work eventually, but he does not know when. Nikki toys with the idea of being Bryan's kayfabe assistant, then mentions the Women's Money In The Bank Ladder Match. Still, she likes the idea.

Mike and Maryse make it to the building, having moved to Raw from SmackDown Live, and is currently getting to know everyone in the red brand's Women's Division. We also meet Alexa Bliss and Nia Jax, the newest additions to the show. They mention the Women's Money In The Bank Ladder Match, and Maryse talks about the Women's Revolution. Nia Jax tells Maryse it must be awful that she cannot be a part of the match, which irks Maryse somewhat.



Trinity and Jon Uso head to a historic lighthouse back home. Jon Uso is enjoying himself, but Trinity is more worried about her short dress and her hair flying around everywhere.

Rusev and Lana head to the gym, as Lana has transitioned from a manager to a wrestler. She hopes to make the most of her opportunity, and she has asked Nikki and Natalya to join her there to see what she can improve on. Rusev gives her advice, but he is not the best at teaching. We also learn that Nattie is afraid of heights, and has never done a move from high up, especially in a high-risk match.

Nattie's mom Ellie and dad Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart visit Nattie at home. Nattie realizes she has to get comfortable with being in high places. They but a 12-foot ladder, but the hardest part is getting the ladder back home, as it falls loose from the roof of the the car.



Back at Nattie and TJ's house, Nattie practices climbing the ladder. Former WWE Superstar Cherry is also there.

Back at Trinity and Jon Uso's house, they have home-cooked spaghetti, which is a step up from the proposal of drive-thru restaurant spaghetti from earlier. As she puts it in tupperware, she finds a black take-out contained and learns that the spaghetti is restaurant take out.

At Brie and Bryan's house, Bryan tells Brie that he has gotten a call from Mark Carrano, and that WWE wants him to go back to work.



Nattie, Alexa, Lana, Rusev and Nikki meet for a pool party a week before Money In The Bank. Rusev is worried about Lana's well-being, but Nikki reassures him that Lana will not do something to jeopardize her well-being. Lana shows up today and says she has beaten her squat and dead-lift records today, and says that she cannot wait to see Nikki Bella return. We also learn that Nikki Bella's idea of replacing Bryan as SmackDown Live General Manager was shot down, but she is still happy in her ambassador role. After everyone at the table has a toast, the pool party begins.

At the Raw before Money In The Bank, Maryse takes offense to Nia Jax asking her what a Gauntlet Match is as Nia tries to get some advice, as she considers the question as simple as asking how many wheels are on a car. Alexa Bliss is confused as to what happened.



Backstage, Alexa Bliss and Nia Jax talk about what happened with Maryse earlier. Nia Jax realizes that she probably rubbed something into her face when it was not the intent, and realizes she should try to be a little more respectful to the veterans, even when asking for advice.

Maryse talks to Mike about what happened with Nia Jax. Mike tells her how things have changed for the better, as well as how far she came with the opportunities she had. Mike tells her not to worry about what other people think about her.

An hour before Money In The Bank, everyone gets ready.

The Women's Money In The Bank Ladder Match is about to take place.

Bonus clip: Nattie talks to Nikki about her lack of comfort around heights.

Generation NXT - NXT recap for November 1, 2017

Nikki Cross beats Taynara Conti.



We see footage from last week where Mercedes Martinez is disappointed she can't fight for the NXT Women's Championship. She has won where it counted, except tonight. She says she does not count on Ember Moon - who can't win the big one - to win this one.

Fabian Aichner gets an upset win on Johnny Gargano after reversing the Gargano Escape into an abdominal stretch into a schoolboy pin.



Drew McIntyre signs the contract for his match with Andrade "Cien" Almas, as does General Manager William Regal.

Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) show us a Maserati, and say if you work hard, this could be yours one day. We then find out the car belongs to Tino Sabbatelli and Riddick Moss, who are also in custom suits. They tell them to step away from the car. Street Profits shrug them off.

Drew McIntyre is attacked by Andrade "Cien" Almas on the stage. He then signs the contract for their match and places it on top of Drew with Zelina Vega's gum.

Peyton Royce is irritated that Billie Kay is not in the Fatal 4-Way for the NXT Women's Championship with her. They mock Kairi Sane, who shows up and points her elbow at Peyton Royce.



Next week: Peyton Royce vs. Kairi Sane!

The Authors of Pain (Akam and Rezar) vs. SAnitY (Eric Young and Alexander Wolfe) ends when both teams are attacked by The Undisputed Era (Adam Cole, Bobby Fish, Kyle O'Reilly). After the match, Roderick Strong shows up. He pulls out the armband from his pocket and puts it on, then turns on The Undisputed Era. The Authors of Pain tear Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly apart, then Roderick Strong tosses the arm band away. General Manager William Regal shows says that there has been quite enough and that there will be order. He announces that at NXT TakeOver: Houston, there will be a Triple Threat Match between the team The Authors of Pain and Roderick Strong, SAnitY and The Undisputed Era. This will not be a normal Triple Threat match, as it is two rings and one cage. It is a War Games match. The "NXT TakeOver: Houston" logo turns into a "NXT TakeOver: War Games" logo on the mini-tron behind William Regal.
