So, let me tell you what I liked about this match first. I liked the fact that it had a story. I liked the fact that it had been built up for weeks, making the audience care. Both women are one step away from main event status and I thought this was necessary.
But when the actual match happened, I found it ordinary. Even the spot with Deville's interference at the end seemed a little sloppy. It made me realise why neither of these women is in the red-hot title picture on SmackDown Live yet.

All said and done, I'm sure that the Royal Rumble will be a great pay-per-view. Even if it isn't, it always gets people talking about WrestleMania and the road to it.
Also, what do you think of how excited Corey Graves gets every time Mandy Rose comes to the ring?
