We always knew that Sonya Deville was special but none of us knew just how special she was until she came unglued recently on SmackDown, delivering a fiery promo. And this week on SmackDown, she took the world by storm again as she distracted her former best friend Mandy Rose and cost her a chance to qualify for Money in the Bank.

I absolutely loved everything about the segment, this week on SmackDown, because it made Mandy Rose look strong even in defeat. And while Carmella did go on to the big pay-per-view, I am definitely interested in the next chapter between Rose and Deville, so in a way, everyone wins in this case.

As for Sonya Deville, I am also intrigued by her relationship with Dolph Ziggler which is very unique considering that Ziggler's affection for Rose seems to be genuine and somehow Deville's part in this whole equation is very strange indeed. Kudos to the SmackDown team for attempting to actually tell stories that we can sink our teeth into.
