6 Ups & 3 Downs From WWE SmackDown (13 Feb - Results & Review)

1. Double Downsides For This Title Match

How on earth did they manage to book a title match that directly failed to get anybody involved over?! Jade Cargill vs. Jordynne Grace suffered for Liv Morgan, Dominik Mysterio and Raquel Rodriguez being around ringside. That Judgment Day trio dominated the conversation. Not only that, but Liv still isn’t coming across as a big enough deal following her Royal Rumble win.

Plus, everyone knows she'll challenge for the Women's World Championship, not Jade's Women's Title.

It's annoying for Jade and Jordynne that the fans chanted for “Dirty Dom” throughout rather than paying attention to what they were doing inside the ring. Man, there was even a chant for the heart shaped nuggets near the end when Jade and Grace went nose to nose! Genuinely terrible and counterproductive booking here, especially considering the fact that this was Cargill’s first title defence since winning the belt last November.

Way to make champ and challenger look like afterthoughts, people. One of the worst things about that split focus on JD was that Grace and Jade were working some neat power based exchanges between the ropes. Midway through, Jordynne semi-hit a Goldberg-style Jackhammer that should've been the focal point. It wasn't. Liv Morgan munching chicken nuggets was.

Hunter has long viewed Cargill as a pet project, so it's extra irritating that he seems intent on bungling her title reign completely. She mixed it with Michin and B-FAB for too long after beating Tiffany Stratton, then found a viable foe in Grace. Oh wait, never mind. Dominik and Liv need to have a romantic meal during their match, because that's important.
