What Was The Worst Part Of Last Night’s Episode?

Sean Patrick Eckmann

Naomi vs. Billie Kay. This wasn’t particularly bad, it just was nowhere near the same level as the rest of the night’s matches. All three women involved here are capable of great things, so let’s see them with more time, shall we? Again, nothing horrible here, I would just love to see Naomi have some more time.

Brian Farrell

Naomi vs Billie Kay. This was not awful, just a rather sloppy match that didn’t accomplish much. It wasn’t a terrible match, but on a very smooth show, this felt like obvious filler.

Ashley D’Altilio

The triple threat tag team match is the grand loser tonight. I genuinely had no idea that the Colóns were still employed by WWE. Overall, this match was poor and The Bar were the clear winners from the beginning. SmackDown’s tag team division is suffering, and I feel as though it needs a serious change (not just a title change) to bring it back to life. Until then, I will find it hard to enjoy a tag team match.

It pains me to say this, but I’m starting to sour on the IIconics. I’m a massive fan of both Billie Kay and Peyton Royce, and I think that they’ve got more charisma than most of the WWE roster – male or female – but they’ve been largely wasted since their call-up from NXT. Making fun of *insert your local sports team here*, followed by an absolutely meaningless, five-minute match against a floundering Naomi does little for either competitor. Remember when they brutally attacked the SmackDown Live Women’s Champion, Charlotte Flair, on debut? Can we get back to that, please?
