6 Ups And 3 Downs From Last Night’s WWE SmackDown (Sept 3)

Ups..

6. Charlotte Wants Divas Title Shot Before Night Of Champions

Another quality promo on this show. Charlotte was backstage doing a promo with her PCB mates when Nikki Bella ended up crashing the promo with her allies. Nikki bragged about how she was going to get the record for the Divas Title, which is at about 10 days now. However, Charlotte told her that she has petitioned The Authority to get a title shot before the record. That would mean the title shot could come as soon as Monday's Raw. This gets an "up" because a babyface outsmarting a heel seems to be so rare in WWE these days that it was refreshing to see Charlotte say something like that. Charlotte ended up winning her match over Tamina in about three minutes, which was pretty basic. By the way, crazy how Charlotte had this match with Tamina considering Charlotte's ex-husband Bram was arrested for hitting his current girlfriend and Tamina's dad Jimmy Snuka was charged for a murder committed 32 years ago. If you're wondering, Jimmy wasn't mentioned on commentary and probably never will be again. Give credit to the women for working through things even though they must have had other things on their minds.
