The partnership between Lacey Evans and Charlotte Flair continued to grow ever since Money in the Bank. It was at the PPV event when these two worked together to take away the Smackdown women’s title away from Becky Lynch. The togetherness continued as the champions from both the brands had to team up to fend off their tandem offense on the women’s roster, producing a tag team match on the show.
WWE News: Huge Return On Smackdown Confirmed WWE Title Match For Super Showdown
WWE Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch teamed up with SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley to take on Charlotte Flair and Lacey Evans. Becky was in control dropping a forearm from the top rope and followed it up with a Bexploder Suplex on Charlotte Flair. But the nine-time women’s champion soon countered with a big boot. This also set her up to lock in the pendant submission move, Figure Eight on her opponent.
But Becky Lynch still countered it trying to lock in the dis-arm-her. As she got full grabs on Charlotte Flair, Lacey Evans entered the ring and hit her hard with a Woman’s Right. Smackdown women’s champion Bayley tagged herself into the match with her partner down only to get into the Figure Eight from Flair. But she was clever enough to roll up The Queen and steal the victory. However, it was still not a sweet moment between the champions as the match completed. Bayley took away the tag of ‘Becky 2 Belts’, after all.
Meanwhile, Lacey Evans has his sight set for Becky Lynch and the Raw women’s championship. Once the match was over, she gave some comments via an interview to declare the champ wherever she goes. This is why she has come over to Smackdown from WWE Raw. It suggests that the rivalry between the two is yet to over. Perhaps, they will lock horns one more time when Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia gets over.
As for the Smackdown women’s champion Bayley, there’s no sign of her next challenger, yet. Charlotte Flair may get a rematch from Money in the Bank after losing the title in an unprecedented way. But the champion pinned her last night that may end their rivalry. We may have to wait for some more times to know what could be next for the new champion on Smackdown.
