When the basis for a match is “one person said the other didn’t have any friends,” you know the bar isn’t set that high for the contest.

Throw in that it was a women’s tag team match featuring Carmella and you’ve got even more of a chance for a letdown. The disjointed bout dragged on well after the point that it fell apart, ending with Ms. Money in the Bank scoring the pin after botched interference.

Considering that three of the wrestlers are former women’s champions and all capable of having good-to-great matches, this really was a disappointment of a bout. It defined “bathroom break match,” as you could have left for 10 minutes and not missed anything of consequence.
