5 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE SmackDown (1 Nov - Results & Review)
Downs...
4. Liv & Tiffany Get Cut Short
Your writer was actually enjoying the spirited work between Liv Morgan and Tiffany Stratton right up until the sudden finish. Of course, sudden finishes aren't always a bad thing, but man - it would've been nice to see this one roll on a little longer, because both women were in a groove and seem to have plenty of chemistry. So, think of this as a soft 'Down' bred more from disappointment than anything else.
There's certainly no problem with Liv beating anyone, including Stratton. She's a World Champ, and is a repeat focal point on the flagship show Raw these days. It does, however, suggest that Nia Jax will be the one to add that token Crown Jewel belt to her trophy cabinet. Or, y'know, leave it in Saudi so it can go on display in WWE's museum over there. People are only half-joking when they bring up that possibility!
A short but sweet outing ruined by being just a little too short then. Tiffany's Money In The Bank tease is the only hope in hell Liv and Nia have on Saturday. More on that later. For now, just know that there's something to the thought of Morgan vs. Stratton heading into the new year. Fingers crossed Triple H saw what everyone else did: This pair complement one another well, and there was a snap to some of their earliest exchanges that was totally missing from the follow-up women's outing later on.
Ideally, WWE would've scrapped the next match and given this one six minutes instead...
