6 Ups & 5 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Mar 27)
Ups...
6. Bayley Making Sure To Grab Her Belt
As routine as the opening SmackDown Women's Title segment was, at least Bayley had the smarts to grab her title afterwards. It was lame to see her and Sasha Banks cower in fear at the sight of Tamina, but Bayley spotted her opening and made sure to take her belt.
Thank f*ck.
Some champions in pro wrestling are prone to forgetting that they should be protective of their prize at all times. Not Bayley. She tried to sell everyone on the idea that her title reign is under serious threat at 'Mania, and that she wants as much time with the championship as she can get. Good work there.
Now, the real challenge will be convincing everyone watching that Bayley could lose the title next week. She's expected to work Banks over the next few months, so nobody is really treating Tamina, Lacey Evans or Naomi as a serious contender.
