The heart of the matter

WrestlingInc are reporting that after SmackDown Live went off the air, new SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair, was to face off against Becky Lynch in a singles match.

But Charlotte did not come out for the match, instead, Lana, who was by her husband Rusev's side during his gauntlet tag team match against Xavier Woods and Big E, came to the ring.

Lana complained about her current standing in the WWE, but she was cut short by Becky, who attacked Lana and put her in the Dis-arm-Her, which ended the night.

What's next?

Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey will headline WrestleMania 35.
