#5 Flop on WWE SmackDown: Bianca Belair defends her title in front of an undeserving crowd

Bianca Belair defended her WWE SmackDown Women's Championship
Two matches from this week’s WWE SmackDown took place at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, for the Rolling Loud rap festival. The idea behind the plan was good, but it did not bring good results. It would be unfair to expect a reaction from a crowd that evidently doesn’t care about the matches or even pro wrestling.
We saw Bianca Belair successfully defend her WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship against Carmella once again. But the lack of cheers or applause made the entire thing seem quite redundant.
We also saw Angelo Dawkins take on Chad Gable in a singles match, but it also met the same reaction. At one point, the crowd just wanted to listen to Cardi B, and they can’t be blamed since they came for the music.
It was the only inferior segment in an otherwise flawless episode of the Blue brand. Belair will now be looking for more challengers on WWE SmackDown, and she might feud with Toni Storm next, who made an impressive debut this week. She arrived on the Blue brand and defeated Zelina Vega on her first night.
