There were no pink tables this time, as main roster newcomer Alexa Bliss took on Becky Lynch for the SmackDown Women's Championship.

While Alexa plays a great heel, she occasionally suffers from not quite being at the same level mechanically as some of her opponents. This was one of those occasions; the pressure of hanging with Becky Lynch and working in the table stipulation seemed to get to her.

Like most tables matches, this one was mostly centered around each woman blocking the other from putting them through the table, which didn’t make for a very exciting match. Plus, at just over 15 minutes, it was a little longer than Bliss could handle at this stage in her career.

But while it’s mostly a forgettable match in the recent history of the Women’s division, it did precipitate Alexa’s reign as the company’s top female heel - and at least the tables weren't pink.
