#2 Bianca Belair defeats Bayley on SmackDown in an underwhelming match

After weeks of feuding on SmackDown, Bayley and Bianca Belair finally went one-on-one on this week's episode. As expected, The EST of WWE came up victorious and ended the rivalry for good heading into the Women's Rumble match.

However, this has been a prominently featured program on SmackDown, and should have gotten more time, and ideally been the main event of the night. The two women would have surely torn the house down had they were given a little more time.

Though a victory gave Belair momentum heading to the Royal Rumble, this could have also been the WWE creative subtly hinting that she's not going to win the Rumble. Going by their booking patterns, Bianca Belair might be too predictable a winner, and they might be considering to execute a swerve by giving the win to returning Superstar. Maybe a returning Becky Lynch or Ronda Rousey or the NXT call-up Rhea Ripley might prove to be unlikely winners of this year's Women's Rumble.
