#1 Worst: Why do current champions have to be pinned on WWE SmackDown to secure title shots?
Does WWE SmackDown star Tamina have to continue to deliver her splashes? Even though we know that her version is a tribute to her legendary father, Jimmy 'Superfly' Snuka, Tamina's splashes look awkward and very poorly executed.
And that's not even the central crux of the issue here. Why did two pairs of tag team Champions- Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler as well as Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode - have to get pinned on this week's show to advance storylines along? This is an inherent issue with the booking on WWE SmackDown and RAW, where challengers earn their shots by pinning current Champions.
Some of the mystique is already lost if you've already seen the Champion get pinned! Do you necessarily want to see the upcoming WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship contest or the Women's Tag Team Championship match in that case?
It does not help that both of these Championship units seem bland and uninteresting because of shoddy booking.
