SmackDown Live landed in Toledo, Ohio this week just days after Money in the Bank and once again the Blue Brand promoted a fantastic show. General Manager Paige put together the first ever five-man gauntlet match to name a new number one contender for the WWE Championship after AJ Styles came out on top in his Last Man Standing Match against Shinsuke Nakamura at Money in the Bank.

Whilst it was another solid show for the brand that is seen as WWE's B show, there were a number of moments that many of the stars involved would rather forget, and here are just a few.


#3 Becky Lynch's wardrobe issues

Becky Lynch was so close to becoming the second Miss Money in the Bank in WWE history on Sunday night, but after Alexa Bliss won the match and later became the Raw Women's Champion, Lynch returned to SmackDown and her familiar feud with The IIconics.

This week the former SmackDown Women's Champion took on Billie Kay but she had a number of issues on her way to the ring since she was unable to get out of her jacket. Lynch tried to unfasten her coat all the way down the ramp with no success until she finally managed to unclasp it when she stepped into the ring and went toe to toe with Kay.

Despite having Peyton Royce at ringside, Kay was still unable to defeat The Lasskicker, so even though she had some issues with her wardrobe, she was able to keep her head in the game and pick up a much-needed win.

#2 Carmella has 'never' been self-confident

Carmella opened this week's episode of SmackDown Live and much like Alexa Bliss, she tried to fake out the WWE Universe with a face-like promo where she talked about never having self-confidence when she was younger.

She ended this by telling the WWE Universe to look in the mirror and say "Mella is Money" before laughing that she had never been self-confident. She was probably supposed to say that she had never had confidence issues, but it appears that the Women's Champion chose the wrong words and many of the WWE Universe picked up on this.

#1 Luke Gallows didn't want to take that superplex

After their loss to The Bludgeon Brothers at Money in the Bank this past weekend, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson were given another shot at the Tag Team Championships this week on SmackDown Live in a match where Gallows showed that he wasn't one hundred per cent.

Gallows botched throwing Luke Harper to the outside, so the Champion had to basically throw himself before Erick Rowan tried to superplex him from the top rope and it took the two men a while to figure themselves out.

The Bludgeon Brothers unsurprisingly went on to retain their Championships, but it is now unknown where Gallows and Anderson will fit into the Tag Team Division.
