The former 2-time SmackDown Women's Champion, Naomi has developed a 7-match losing streak on WWE pay-per-views. This statistic has gone unnoticed by many of the top wrestling pundits and fans as WWE has often booked Naomi in multi-woman matches.

Naomi's last pay-per-view victory came way back at WrestleMania 34 where she won the first ever WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal. However, since that night things have not gone in Naomi's favor as she has been demoted to the position of an undercard performer.

She had lost the 2018 women's Money In The Bank ladder match, a tag team match at WWE Super Show Down, a #1 Contender's Battle Royal at WWE Evolution, the 5-on-5 Traditional Survivor Series Match, the Royal Rumble, the tag team match inside Elimination Chamber and the WrestleMania 35 Women's Battle Royal to build a 7-match losing streak.

The former member of Team B.A.D. is all set to compete in the 2019 women's Money in the Bank ladder match but not many fans expect her to emerge as Mrs. Money in the Bank 2019. Here are the 3 reasons WWE has transformed Naomi from a champion to a jobber -


#3 Absence of trust after the SummerSlam 2017 incident

A lot of members of the WWE Universe may remember that Naomi was the top female superstar for months after the brand split but she never returned to the title picture ever since she lost the SmackDown Women's Championship at SummerSlam 2017. This was the last time we saw Naomi in a singles match on a WWE pay-per-view.

The fact that Naomi lost her title to Natalya clean raised many eyebrows but it was then revealed that Naomi had made an unscripted statement on WWE TV which led to her downfall. The then SmackDown commentator JBL had asked the champion if she had planned a special ring entrance for SummerSlam to which Naomi answered affirmatively.

The reality was that WWE had no plans for a special entrance for Naomi but they had to plan one because of her statement on live TV. Thus, this incident may have reduced WWE's trust in Naomi and they never ever tried to insert her in the main event picture of the women's division once again.

#2 No one backstage noticed she has a losing streak

It often occurs in a company so big as WWE that even the top bookers of the company fail to notice minor numbers. Given that Naomi has been pushed in the undercard, WWE may have not looked at her recent pay-per-view record. Another thing to note here is that many of these losses came in multi-woman matches. Thus, WWE Creative might not have noticed the losing streak.

They have continued booking Naomi in a positive manner ever since she moved over to RAW in the 2019 Superstar Shakeup. She had overcome the challenge from the Women's Tag Team Champions in singles matches. But, WWE has booked Naomi in a multi-woman bout once again at the upcoming Money In The Bank pay-per-view. This move will most likely take her PPV losing streak to 8.

Naomi enjoys immense support from fans thanks to her flexibility inside the ring and the unique type of ring entrance she has. Whenever Naomi enters the arena, the fans always pop. Thus, the former SmackDown Women's Champion will never go out of WWE Creative's eyes.

We had earlier seen how Asuka won the Women's title after being out of the title picture for months. She even lost quite a few matches in that time duration. In the same way, Curt Hawkins too generated reactions after winning a pay-per-view to culminate his losing streak. The earlier phases of this losing streak were unnoticed.

Hence, WWE might have something big in store for Naomi and for that they are booking her to lose pay-per-view matches but win on TV.
