1 Up & 6 Downs From WWE SmackDown (11 July - Results & Review)

2. Sloppy & A Bit All Over The Place

We've seen far too many Fatal-4-Ways on WWE TV over the past couple of months. Give that idea a breather, Hunter! All would be forgiven had Alexa Bliss, Kairi Sane, Roxanne Perez and Sol Ruca worked a scorcher on Friday night, but their effort was riddled with miscommunication and far too many one-on-one moments whilst everybody else visibly chilled (literally doing nothing; not selling, just...watching) outside the ring.

Eek.

Ideally, you don't want workers waiting for their next spots to be seen waiting for their next spots. That isn't on WWE's camera crew or production crew through, it's on the wrestlers themselves. They should be smarter than this. You're not working a non-televised house show, guys. Come on now.

There were several clunky moments throughout this match that shattered its promise. Perez and Ruca couldn't get on the same page, Roxanne and Alexa struggled to power through some awkward exchanges, then Sane seemed to forget which bump she was talking for the match-winning DDT from Bliss. This one was all over the place from beginning to end.

Let's just assume the agent responsible won't be proud of it. Nor, mind you, should workers as seasoned as Bliss or Sane. The onus was on them to help guide Perez and Ruca through, but neither veteran could make it happen. So, it's sad to report that you should go out of your way to avoid seeing this unless you've got a sneaky love for spot calling going wrong.

As the subheading says, the bout was a sloppy and uncoordinated preview for another match to come on Evolution's card.
