Five women will compete in the ring at WrestleMania 36 to get their hands on Bayley's SmackDown Women’s Championship, and there are a few favorites who could walk out as victors.

This week’s SmackDown saw a Triple Threat Match between three of the five women who will lock horns at The Show of Shows, as Sasha Banks and SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley, decided to hang back and watch from the commentary table.

Naomi, Lacey Evans, and Tamina competed in the ring and all three women got a chance to showcase some top-quality action. Naomi was impressive with her athleticism, while Evans also never lost control of the match.

However, Evans was attacked by Banks at ringside while Naomi was taken out by Bayley, allowing Tamina to hit a Superkick on Naomi to pick up the win.

After the match, Bayley entered the ring to congratulate the Samoan but was met with a Superkick. Banks thought it’d be a good idea to make friends with Tamina before the big match, but she too faced the wrath of Tamina as she was met with a Samoan drop.

This was a good way for WWE to add some depth to the storyline between these five women before WrestleMania. Tamina has been made to look strong over the past few weeks, while Banks has shown her interest in her friend’s title which could lead to an interesting betrayal.
