WWE News: Reason Why Natalya Won The Smackdown Women’s Championship

At Summerslam, Smackdown Women’s Championship match was contested between Naomi and Natalya. The latter one earned the right to challenge the champion for the title at the Battleground PPV by becoming the number one contender. Going forward, Natalya did not build up the rivalry with the champion, as expected.

Due to the coldness of the rivalry, it was thought that the championship is not going to change at Summerslam. At this point, Natalya had turned into a jobber, lately and hence the creative might not be intending to hand her the title. So, there was more excitement going on over whether Carmella will show up with the Money in the Bank briefcase, or not.

But all the speculations turned out to be wrong as The Queen of Harts won the championship back after almost six years. Moreover, it was a clean finish i.e. a dominant win by Nattie Neidhart that stole the spotlight from the fighting champion that Naomi is. Apparently, there’s a big reason why this type of booking happened in the match.

According to the reports of the Dirty Sheets, there was a backstage heat going on against the former titleholder from last week. It started after Naomi appeared to sit for commentary during the Becky Lynch vs. Natalya match on Smackdown.

WWE legend and commentator, JBL asked her if she had planned for a special entrance at Summerslam. Naomi came up with an affirmative answer whereas in reality there was no such planning for her. Smackdown is getting hosted live all over the world and these comments forced the creative to come up with some ideas at the very end due to these comments so that it does not turn out to be false. This is even more hectic at a time when WWE has got rid of the pyro-techniques and other enhancements due to cost cuttings.

Both, JBL and Naomi has suffered some serious backstage heats following the incident. Furthermore, this is the supposed reason why the creative took the title away from her which turned out to be a dominant run, so far. As a fan, it was quite unfortunate to see Naomi suffering for doing such a mistake and getting robbed of the title.
