Miss #1: The Money In the Bank ladder match announcements

If you too shared the opinion that the MITB ladder match participant announcements on RAW felt lazy, the blue brand outdid the red brand in mediocrity. RAW at least had 'The Goddess' Alexa Bliss make these announcements before setting up random matches among the participants. SmackDown randomly announced the names in different segments.

A female WWE star said her life is in danger. Details HERE

It's bizarre that nobody had to earn their chance. Instead, the announcers revealed the names of the 4 men (Orton, Andrade, Balor, and Ali), while the announcements of the women participants (Rose, Carmella, Bayley, and Moon) in different segments. For a bit of storytelling, Soniya Deville let Mandy Rose take the sole-spot for their team in the match, solidifying that Fire and Desire has no differences between them.

The men, unsurprisingly, participated in a tag match, with Balor and Ali defeating Orton and Andrade. Also, Bayley lost to Lynch. Clearly, it was a slow creative day.
