SmackDown’s women are faltering, with no cure in sight

The issue at hand, with the Women’s Division, is as follows. The three babyfaces- Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, and Naomi are the only three players of any consequence, because of how the remaining women have been booked on the show. Natalya can work matches but lacks the personality to become a top star in the division.
Carmella is an interesting character, but as we saw from her yawnfest of a match with Naomi, she is still pretty green in a lot of departments. Tamina Snuka was never the best talker or worker, and we assume that she has not improved during her time on the sidelines.
Also, unless there’s a major storyline swerve, any 6-woman tag match is not exciting. How far the mighty have fallen, since La Luchadora.
