Yes, it may be a 6-woman match for the SmackDown Women's Championship on paper. Yes, realistically Lacey Evans, Naomi, Dana Brooke, and Tamina have a chance of winning the title. But under no circumstances should Vince McMahon have any of them pick up the victory because the two main stars in this match are Sasha Banks and Bayley.
It is all too possible that Vince McMahon will book a story where Sasha Banks and Bayley implode and while they're engaged in their own rivalry, one of the other women picks up a victory. It would be very odd indeed if Tamina or Dana Brooke become the SmackDown Women's Champions because they've not been built in this manner. And the same can also be said of Lacey Evans and Naomi, who're top-tier stars but haven't really had a compelling storyline or push in the recent past, according to me.
This is the Sasha and Bayley story and the winner should be one of these two women.
