Loser: Bayley

Bayley retained her title last night but was met with boos from the same crowd that infamously booed her a couple of years ago. The match fell way below expectations as well, given the talent involved in it. Never did it feel like a big match between two former NXT Women's Champions. Ember Moon must be disappointed with her first title shot on the main roster.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Bayley emerged as the bigger loser on the night, though. Her title reign has just existed since she won it at Money in the Bank. It was all downhill after that great moment. It really does feel like she's just keeping the title warm for yet another Charlotte Flair reign.


Winner: Kevin Owens

Kevin Owens soundly defeated Shane McMahon last night, overcoming both interference and his opponent's attempts to outsmart him. The Toronto crowd loved it. Kevin Owens has now emerged as one of the most over figures on SmackDown, if not in the company.

Hopefully this will also mean the end of Shane McMahon's constant presence on television. The "best in the world" has finally been defeated. There's no more use for it. The blue brand has always been better when Shane McMahon isn't taking up its screen time.
