The contract signing segment for the WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship match at SummerSlam was saved for the show's final moments. The positioning of the segment hinted towards a big brawl.

Sonya Deville presided over the contract signing ceremony between Sasha Banks and SmackDown Women’s Champion Bianca Belair. Both women exchanged some hot words before Banks introduced Zelina Vega and Carmella as her witnesses.

Before The Boss could sign the contract, Belair tried to take Banks down with a big flip. The numbers game caught onto her as Vega and Carmella helped Banks beat the SmackDown Women’s Champion down.

The Boss repeatedly smashed Belair into the table before applying a Bank Statement with Belair’s own hair to end the show. SmackDown has done very well to build all the big matches for SummerSlam.

While the segment was predictable, it was interesting to see that Carmella and Vega are now with Sasha Banks. This could give The EST a chance to call for some backup from WWE NXT or align with Tegan Nox and Shotzi Blackheart for some time.
