16 Things You Probably Missed From WWE SmackDown (Dec 13)

12. Sonya Deville's Punch Didn't Connect

When Sonya Deville tagged in and took some free shots at a vulnerable Nikki Cross, she went easy on the ex-SAnitY scream queen. Look at the .GIF above a few times to see that Deville's first big punch didn't actually connect with Nikki at all. In fact, it didn't even come close.

There's no good excuse for this. No, WWE's camera angle didn't do them any favours, but it's hardly production's fault that Sonya missed Cross by at least a foot. Someone needs another session or two with Fit Finlay so this doesn't happen again.
