Best and Worst of SmackDown Live- 31 July, 2018

#2 Worst: Lana getting distracted

There was something very wrong about the whole segment this week

Lana and Zelina Vega took each other on in a not very interesting contest, this week. It's what happened during the course of this match that was really interesting for me. Andrade 'Cien' Almas would come down to help his business associate out.

Aiden English stepped forward to even the odds. Lana was distracted by English's interference allowing Vega to pick up the big win. Somehow the distraction spot seemed way too forced and Lana's acting wasn't convincing enough for me.

God damn it!! How the hell did that happen?? Aiden English comes out and all of a sudden Lana falls off the ropes and gets pinned...While I'm glad Zelina Vega won, it's just odd how that ended. #SDLive #ZelinaVega #HappyLanaDay #DamnItAiden pic.twitter.com/7Hhf9hSRZD

I did not mind how the story played out this week. It's the execution that was a real problem!
