Winner: Bayley
As far as actual in-ring action goes, this bout was disappointing. As far as taking this story to the next chapter, it was well-done. Bayley used quintessential heel tactics to retain her championship by pulling her opponent into an exposed turnbuckle. Then she got out of dodge as fast as she could.
Charlotte is going to want to get her hands on Bayley as soon as possible, giving us all a reason to tune in to SmackDown this week.
Winners: The Revival
Surprisingly, The Revival won the SmackDown Tag Team titles despite still being assigned to RAW in the brand split. I suppose that means they make the jump. Something like this was probably inevitable if the "wild card" rule was going to continue, anyway. If there's to be cross-branded title matches, sometimes the opposite brand superstar needs to win if they're to mean anything.
Or maybe WWE is just really keen on signing The Revival to new contracts.
Either way, with Randy Orton failing to win the WWE Championship later in the night, it will be interesting to see where this goes.
