3 interesting observations from WWE SmackDown (November 29, 2019)

"The Fiend" Bray Wyatt took his gimmick to a whole new level this week!

#2: Lacey Evans' potential babyface turn might be a misstep for the SmackDown Women's Division

Lacey Evans' gimmick as a Sassy Southern Belle has benefited her character in many ways so far. A division cannot succeed without great characters, and Evans is an important addition to the SmackDown roster. However, Evans' gimmick isn't suitable for a babyface role in any way, shape, or form.

She had a nice moment with Natalya in Saudi Arabia, where both women let go of their personas for the time being. But that is not a good reason why a character should turn into a babyface suddenly.

Not only that, but WWE's harsh booking towards Bayley has started to show its effects at an early stage. It's hard to pinpoint what exactly is going on with her. Maybe she isn't being written as a character with many strong moments, or perhaps it is the performer's growing disinterest after facing so many lows in recent times.

When you combine both of these characters, especially in a way that doesn't fit them at all, what you might get is another disappointing women's feud on SmackDown. Let's hope that isn't the case here.
