Who gained the most momentum from SmackDown (December 05, 2018)?

#2 Lost momentum: The Riott Squad

There was no Riott last night.

Last week, it was apparent that of the three, only Ruby Riott herself is a good talker. Liv Morgan needs a lot of work and Sarah Logan's hick gimmick is turned up too high to be any good.

The trio kind of floated around, getting into a meaningless fight with Tamina and seeming out of place in having no babyfaces to clash with. Aside from destroying everyone, it seems a slapstick group without much of a reason to exist.

While Absolution remains focused on RAW, the Riott Squad meandered this week, and the lack of a victim meant that the stable couldn't paper over its weaknesses.
