5 Ups & 3 Downs From WWE SmackDown (23 Aug - Results & Review)

2. This Didn’t Make Sense

So, let's get this straight: Chelsea Green and Piper Niven were standing right next to Nia Jax, Tiffany Stratton and Pretty Deadly bitching but...didn't notice them? Like, the pair were literally a few feet away, and Piper was staring straight at Tiff and PD trying to put Nia's crown back together. Who produced this?!

The segment would've been fine without that nonsense call. It's the kind that's minor to some, but definitely sucks others out of the moment and makes it hard to take anything seriously. OK, so that might sound daft considering the source material, but even silly, overblown moments need a little more care and attention.

Nia also needed to walk down the hallway a bit before bumping into Chelsea and Piper. There had to be some distance between them, because this just made everyone involved look deaf, blind and/or oblivious to their surroundings. It was a weird choice from the production team.

Totally avoidable. Let these workers act like real people!
