Worst: Storm, Yim disappoint

This was basically a worse version of the Toni Storm vs. Hiroyo Matsumoto match from round two. It basically consisted of nothing except Toni Storm getting beaten up for 90% of the match and then coming back and winning with a couple of anticlimactic moves.

It's baffling why WWE decides to book all its babyfaces in this same way. Toni Storm really doesn't serve as a convincing underdog, but the company insists on it anyway. Mia Yim's injured hand only came into play at the very end of the match and it was baffling why, after having gone through the war with Kaitlyn, that her hand wasn't a lot more vulnerable.

This was a mess, psychologically, even if the work itself in the match was good because of the caliber of the performers within it. Hopefully, Toni Storm's subsequent matches aren't like this because she can do more.
