Nikki Bella didn't like the way WWE booked Becky Lynch's return at SummerSlam this past Sunday. More specifically, as she explained to TV Insider, Bella wasn't hot on how the company handled the end of Bianca Belair's reign as SmackDown Women's Champion.

The WWE Hall Of Famer described Belair as "an incredible talent", and said that she was left "frustrated" by the way Becky dismantled her in less than 30 seconds. That, to Nikki, was an own goal "that definitely was not [her] favourite moment" from the pay-per-view.

On that note, Bella said that she couldn't really pinpoint one favourite moment at all from the entire card.

Previously, news broke that Nikki "wasn't allowed" to attend SummerSlam despite being in Las Vegas. She apparently ended up watching the show remotely instead, but disliked the way that SmackDown women's scenario was handled.

Belair won the SmackDown Women's Title from Sasha Banks in the main event during WrestleMania 37's first night this past April - that came after a popular Royal Rumble triumph in January. Since then, some critics have bashed the way she's been booked as champ.
