#1 Flopped on SmackDown: Tamina

This week on SmackDown, Billie Kay teamed up with Tamina to take on Ruby Riott and Liv Morgan. This match on the Blue brand was quite underwhelming, and Tamina ended up looking the weakest performer inside the ring. The lack of chemistry was evident, and there was nothing that made this encounter a must-see. Last week, we saw Natalya in the same position, and unfortunately, Tamina ended up looking worse during this in-ring battle.

During this SmackDown match, there were sporadic moments which saw Tamina dominate her opponents. However, they did not account for a convincing performance. She struggled throughout this match despite being booked as the strongest Superstar out of the four women. Ultimately, The Riott Squad ended up picking a victory as Tamina was unsuccessful in finding a breakout moment.

Billie Kay is a talented Superstar who deserves to be a part of good matches on SmackDown, but she seems far away from that opportunity. Even today, her comedic timing and expressions were the only saving grace for her team throughout this match. On the flip side, The Riott Squad are gaining momentum, and they could eventually challenge for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. As for Tamina, the creative can try to include her in Roman Reigns' clan where she can try to find her redemption.
