Ready to be depressed?

There was one women's match on this week's SmackDown. Toni Storm and Liv Morgan beat Carmella and Zelina Vega by countout when 'Mella feigned a broken nose. The bout lasted a miserable 2:08, and it gets worse; that was the only women's match across the past three weeks of blue brand telly.
