Charlotte vs. Bayley (special guest referee, Dana Brooke):
Trending
Result: Charlotte pins Bayley after using the ropes for leverage.
Grade: 6/10
This was a weak segment that did little to add to the Bayley/Charlotte feud. For some reason, Dana Brooke randomly showed up despite not being alongside Charlotte for weeks. Charlotte having to resort to cheating and a dodgy referee to beat Bayley makes the ‘Hugger’ look strong, but Charlotte just beat Sasha Banks clean a couple of weeks ago.
It made little sense for her to jump through hoops trying to beat Bayley when she used very little underhanded tactics against Banks. This segment did well to set up Bayley getting her revenge in the coming weeks, but poor in-ring action and shenanigans left fans deflated once this match was over.
Overall, a lacklustre way to continue the build of this rivalry after last week’s strong start.
