WWE SmackDown: 4 huge mistakes WWE made on this week’s episode (May 21, 2019)

#3 Tension between the Champions

On Sunday night, Bayley surprised the WWE Universe by first winning the Money in the Bank briefcase and then later cashing it in minutes later on the newly crowned SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair.

Last night, Bayley teamed up with Becky Lynch to take on Charlotte Flair and Lacey Evans in a tag team match. While the match was decent and we saw good offense from both the sides, it was The Hugger who caught The Queen with an inside cradle for three.

It wasn’t the match that was a mistake, but rather the tension between the two babyface partners that was concerning. Becky and Bayley showed some tension backstage before their match, talking about how much they would both like to be the champion of both brands.

Bayley has recently won the SmackDown Championship, while Becky really hasn’t lost much at all in terms of her status in the company.

WWE should have waited a while and let these two work together just like they are doing for Kofi and Seth Rollins before teasing tensions between the two women.

The next mixed pay-per-view is over a month away, and WWE can wait and focus on building new opponents for both the women rather than make them go after each other so soon.
