Ranking every SmackDown Women's Champion in the SmackDown Live era from worst to best

#6 Naomi

Naomi added her glow to the SmackDown Women's Championship

The former 2-time SmackDown Women’s Champion, Naomi was one of the Superstars who benefited the most because of the brand split. She grew into the biggest face of the SmackDown Women’s section heading into the 2017-18 season. While Naomi’s initial title reign had ended because of an injury, she came back stronger at WrestleMania 33 to reclaim the title that she had never lost.

The former Team B.A.D. member held the championship for 140 days before losing it to Natalya. She was supposed to carry the role of a kind babyface and she did her job to perfection. Naomi’s gimmick even connected with the fans because of her glowing entrance, in-ring athleticism and the storylines she received.

While Naomi got a huge pop from the WWE Universe at WrestleMania 33, the creative team did not book her in enthralling feuds following the PPV. Her biggest rivalry was with Lana who was a novice in the ring back then.

WWE had even booked her in a feud with the Welcoming Committee where she teamed up with Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair to take on Tamina Snuka, Natalya, and Carmella.

Nevertheless, the fans still loved Naomi’s run at the top and they won’t mind much if she is involved in the title picture once again.
