#2 Worst: Shayna Baszler arrives on WWE SmackDown to job for Natalya
Ad
Woefully short match. Good amount of hype thanks to McAfee-hour energy drink. Solid back and forth involving everyone. But woefully short.And everyone looked good in their matching outfits. Black and neon, black and gold; this is the level of coordination teams should have.
In case you missed WWE SmackDown (and who would blame you after RAW?), Shayna Baszler did the job for Natalya this week. Just imagine how crazy it is to think how far down the ranks Baszler has fallen, following her dominant performance at the Elimination Chamber last year. Nothing against Natalya, but how do you book one of your current Champions so very poorly?
Shayna Baszler, who should be an unstoppable beast, has recently been booked in shopping segments with Reginald. Much like Vince McMahon's case with Samoa Joe, he doesn't realize what a fantastic performer Shayna Baszler would be if she were allowed to be herself. A dominant MMA-style combat sports athlete, dominating the competition with her ferocity.
Can Shayna Baszler stop doing jobs on RAW and WWE SmackDown regularly, please? There must be a better way to secure a title shot than having a Champion eat a pin! Is there any excitement around the Women's Tag Team Championships at all?
