Smackdown Women’s Championship Match
Natalya (c) vs. Naomi
Carmella is ringside for this match, with James Ellsworth. Why is that buffoon the only one of them that’s allowed to have a last name? Ronda Rousey was shown sitting ringside as they hype the finals of the Mae Young Classic, as well as some “YouTube Influencer” I’ve never heard of. What the hell is a YouTube Influencer?
Naomi started the match in total control, hitting a series of arm drags before doing her speedball kick thing. Oh god, Ellsworth is literally on a leash right now. After a commercial break Naomi set in with stiff kicks all over the body, before putting the champion in the ropes and crushing her with a leg drop. She went to the top looking for a moonsault, but came up empty. Natalya tried to hook in the Sharpshooter but she too got countered, being thrown to the floor. Carmella got in her face and Naomi came off the top rope to take them all down, but the champion got out of the way. Natalya rolled her back in the ring, locked in the Sharpshooter, and this time got the submission.
Winner and Still Champion: Natalya
