WWE Smackdown Live September 6th: Reading Between the Lines of Each Segment

Opening Women’s Division Promo:

Main Point: Glad to see that WWE opted to open the show with the women. It allowed the six-pack bout at Backlash to feel a little more significant, even if this was only to further set up the six-woman tag match for later in the night.

This was a solid opening segment, although it felt like a cheap way to allow all six competitors to set up the tag match later in the night. Becky Lynch was the only woman who really stood out, getting a decent amount of time to talk about her goal of being the inaugural champion.

At least we got to see the women open the show.
