5 things that will make WWE Smackdown Live a success

Daniel Bryan is SmackDown Live’s general manager with Shane McMahon serving as commissioner.

Strong Women’s division

Natalya and Becky Lynch are bringing their bitter feud to the SmackDown roster.

Early in the draft, it would’ve seemed like Raw was miles ahead of SmackDown when it came to women’s talent. Both active women who have held a Women’s or Divas Championship – Paige and current champion Charlotte – were both drafted to the red brand, as was clear future champion Sasha Banks.

But the SmackDown women’s division turned out to be incredibly strong. Becky Lynch has been an incredible asset to the WWE in her first year on the main roster, and Natalya and Naomi are both highly gifted in the ring. If Carmella, Alexa Bliss and Eva Marie can develop, the depth of the women’s side of the roster could help carry the brand.
