WWE hadn't afforded either Women's Division much of a story going into WrestleMania 33, but SmackDown Live's in particular had unnerving echoes of the worst time in the company's history for the females.

In front of her hometown crowd, Naomi returned from injury just weeks after being forced to surrender the Women's Championship and won her belt back, but it begged the question why a singles match between her and titleholder Alexa Bliss wouldn't have been the better option.

Natalya, Becky Lynch, Carmella and Mickie James were almost certainly all glad to get onto the card, but they had less agency than the two actually fighting for the title. In delicate times for the division, less still could have meant so much more.
