5 Things WWE subtly told us on SmackDown: Returning star refuses to turn heel, former MITB winner getting a big push? 

#4. Carmella could get a SmackDown Women's title shot

Carmella was victorious on SmackDown

It seems Carmella is being built up as the next challenger for the SmackDown Women's Championship. On the latest episode of SmackDown, she faced the only remaining member of The Riott Squad, Liv Morgan.

Carmella called herself the most beautiful woman in WWE and proceeded to defeat Liv Morgan with relative ease. While we wish the match on SmackDown was longer so that Morgan looked good, it was a quick affair meant to establish Carmella in the running.

We speculated a month ago that Carmella would be next in line for the women's title. But after WrestleMania Backlash, Bayley still seems to be in the title picture. Bianca Belair challenged Bayley to a match at Hell in a Cell and was met with feindish laughter.

Don't be surprised if Carmella emerges as Bianca Belair's title challenger on SmackDown after Hell in a Cell.
