WWE Royal Rumble 2017: Every Match Ranked From Worst To Best

7. Becky Lynch, Nikki Bella, & Naomi Vs. Alexa Bliss, Mickie James & Natalya

Kevin Owens Roman Reigns

Result: Naomi nails Alexa with the Split-Legged Moonsault (9:35).

Rating: This one unsurprisingly didn't even touch the sides: it was every bit the "crowd still filing in" pre-show match you'd expect.

Still, it didn't outstay its welcome and it was good to see Naomi get a push in a match with so many other potential outcomes, but it was hard to really care much at all.

Hopefully this means WWE might do something useful with Naomi title-wise, otherwise did it really benefit anyone to have the champion of all people eat the pin? Not enough Mickie James, but a watchable (if fairly forgettable) bout overall. 5/10
