4 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE SmackDown (12 July - Results & Review)

Ups...

4. No Problems With This

Onto the good SmackDown served up.

Yeah, the opening promo train was a revolving door, but it was different from last week's because WWE moved forward on potential match-ups instead of everyone saying the same thing over and over about MITB. Tiffany Stratton, Bayley and Nia Jax all had something to say, and all have valid claims to being crown jewels of the division.

Stratton is getting over nicely, and there's serious mileage in her being the one to take Bayley's Women's Title away. Then, there's Nia and her guaranteed title shot at SummerSlam. If nothing else, it's great to report that there's some interest in this belt again after an admittedly stale period since Bayley won the thing at 'Mania.

It's hard to be sour about WWE lining up threats, keeping the women's briefcase in the chat and painting a clear picture of Nia's concern that "Tiffy Time" will poach her big moment. All three women were natural on the mic, and things will only continue to heat up heading into the summer's biggest PLE.
