5 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Nov 3 - Results & Review)

1. Charlotte Flair Whips The Champs

Well f*cking hell, this was so counterproductive.

Babyface Charlotte Flair is still a chore, and she's just comprehensively destroyed the reigning Women's Tag-Team Champions like they're a pair of local jobbers and she was late-1980s Sid Vicious. Flair barely needed Shotzi out there to whip Chelsea Green and Piper Niven single-handedly.

In short, it's hardly like Shotzi got a rub from working next to Charlotte or scoring a win over the tag champs. Literally nobody benefitted from this situation, and that includes Flair herself. Seriously, what in the name of Ric Flair energy drinks are we even doing here?!

No wonder these belts are viewed as a laughing stock by fans. To recap, two different singles workers manhandled two different tag-teams on the same two hour episode. Gee, you'd almost think creative had it in for the doubles division or something.

Horrible.
