Mandy Rose is beautiful and Nikki Cross is ugly, according to SmackDown's go-home promo for the Women's Tag Team Title clash between champions Cross and Alexa Bliss and Fire and Desire.

It was a hideous and lazy way to build to the battle between the pairs, and WWE have managed to get away with it for the most part due to the low level importance of the match itself. More's the pity too - it cast a shadow on what quietly had the potential to be the division's best match so far.

Rose and partner Sonya Deville are underrated between the ropes, whilst Bliss' star power has helped drag the prestige of the doubles straps back to a level approaching the one Sasha Banks and Bayley found before their troubling WrestleMania loss. Herein lies another problem with this match at the division at large - 'The Boss N Hug Connection' had a ripper on Raw with Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair, reminding the audience why they were selected to be the inaugural champions. All road should lead to the heels regaining what they had robbed, but this filler match will likely not be the last between the pairs.

Winners - Alexa Bliss & Nikki Cross
