WWE Backlash 2017: Every Match Ranked From Worst To Best
4. The Welcoming Committee Vs. Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair & Naomi
Result: Becky taps out to Natalya's Sharpshooter (10:05).
Rating: It's a pretty baffling proposition to have the Women's champ wrestle on a PPV and not even have her defend her title, but it still makes more sense than Charlotte being a face, at least.
This was uninspired but fine, basically. Everyone had a moment to do their thing, it hit the usual TV match beats and didn't do anything wrong, so it ended up a decent if forgettable sprint.
The underwhelming finish was a shame, as the crowd didn't seem to believe that Natalya would actually make Becky tap going by their totally flat response to it (that or they just didn't care), and seeing Becky eat another loss was predictable but disappointing all the same. 5/10
