SmackDown's Women's Division
Members: Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans, Bayley (Champion), Alexa Bliss, Nikki Cross, Carmella, Mandy Rose, Sonya Deville, Dana Brooke, Tamina
Before the major roster move that saw Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross traded to SmackDown for future considerations, this division was likely going to end up being one of the worst in the WWE. But after that move and the free-agent additions like 'Fire and Desire', it has been saved.
Both Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville are one push away from breaking out. Each woman has proven their value in their respective roles. Rose excels as the manipulative braggart who relies on her looks while Deville has nailed the silent muscle role.
Carmella will likely get boosted up the card as one of the brand's top faces. It will clash with Bayley's recent heel turn as the two women are well-known friends outside of the ring. Hopefully, for Mella, she can meet the challenge instead of riding on Truth's back in comedic skits. Lacey Evans is also a wildcard as she is still relatively young in terms of her main-roster tenure.
Dana Brooke has improved but is still likely to be at the bottom of the division with Tamina. Tamina recently returned to pick up a brief 24/7 title reign, but she's failed to improve in her entire WWE career. If she isn't paired with another Superstar as she has been in the past, it'll be the status quo for her on SmackDown.
