5 Ups And 3 Downs From Last Night’s WWE SmackDown (Jan 28)

3. Becky Lynch Continued To Be Involved

It looks like Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte could be the main WWE Divas Title issue heading into WrestleMania. Truthfully, there's a good chance that the promotion will look to feature a multi-woman situation, because it gives the likes of Paige, Becky Lynch and others the opportunity to star on the main card and get that big 'Mania pay day. On Smackdown, Banks was nowhere to be found. Instead, Charlotte faced off against Natalya in a short bout. Within 4 minutes, the Canadian was staring at the lights for the champion, who decided to attack her foe after the match was finished. Focusing on Natalya's leg, Charlotte followed up on her Figure Eight submission by bashing the knee. This allowed Becky Lynch to sprint out and make the big babyface save. During the live taping of the show, Banks did cut a promo backstage. Apparently, this was taken out of the final broadcast, meaning Lynch had a bigger impact. It's a good idea to keep the Irish Diva involved in proceedings, because there were worries that she'd be booted out of the title picture after what happened at the Royal Rumble.
