WWE SmackDown: 3 subtle but important details you missed on this week's show (November 1st, 2019)
#2 Bayley debuts a new finisher
Bayley turned heel on SmackDown a few weeks ago when she was able to win back the SmackDown Women's Championship from Charlotte Flair before The Queen was drafted over to Raw. Bayley and Sasha Banks have since been the women to beat on SmackDown and this week Nikki Cross was able to challenge Bayley for the Championship after earning her opportunity last week.
Banks was in Bayley's corner as she was able to defeat Nikki with a new facebuster finisher. Many fans may have missed this because WWE didn't play a replay of the finish since Shayna Baszler ran in and attacked all three women. This was part of what was seen as an NXT invasion and Bayley was Baszler's main target.
This was the final piece of the face Bayley character that was left and it appears that the former NXT Women's Champion has now gone completely dark and has cut out her entire hugging gimmick. Her new finisher looks much more powerful than the Bayley to Belly, so this is a satisfying upgrade for the current Women's Champion.
