Loser: Alexa Bliss
The Harley Quinn of the SmackDown Live’s women’s locker room, Alexa Bluss, was in line for a title shot. Instead, fans got the bad news that Becky Lynch had not been cleared to compete. Bliss, however, had another thing coming her way. She was asked to face Naomi in one of the forgetful bouts of the night.
The match may have been put together in one last-minute hassle. Regardless, the chemistry didn’t exist and the match was well below average. These two women are capable of producing more. However, what puts Bliss on the loser list was the outcome of the match.
The No. 1 Contender to the SmackDown Women’s Championship took a clean loss to Naomi, who was nowhere near the title scene. Again, creative could have come up with a number of options, that could have protected both these performers. Bliss could have walked out midway through the match, draw a count out, or a disqualification. She could have done anything that would prevent a clean loss to Naomi. Instead, the former NXT stars got pinned, losing all the momentum she had created for herself.
