Natalya vs. Becky Lynch
The #1 contender for Naomi's WWE SmackDown Live Women's Championship, Natalya was up next in a match against Becky Lynch.
Both the women made their respective entrances, but WWE had to do the obvious and send Naomi out to join the commentary team.
The bout kicked off with Lynch gaining an early advantage with a couple of strikes. She shot for the arm but Nattie rolled out of the ring as SmackDown went into a break.
Back from the commercial break, Natalya had Lynch locked up in an abdominal stretch and looked to be in complete control. However, it was time for the babyface comeback Lynch mounted stunned the Queen of Harts with a Bexploder followed by a flying forearm.
She went for the Disarmer but Nattie reversed it into the Sharpshooter. Lynch escaped the hold and went for the leg drop from the top rope, but missed!
Natalya took advantage of the situation and locked in the Sharpshooter and left Lynch with no option but to tap out.
Result: Natalya def. Becky Lynch via submission
After the match, Natalya tried to assault Becky with another sharpshooter, but the champion saved the Irish Lasskicker. Nattie teased a brawl with Naomi, but guess who's showed up? Ms MITB: CARMELLA!
Carmella cut a generic promo with her characteristic style that made it bearable and sent out a warning to both Naomi and Natalya that she will be waiting to cash in successfully at SummerSlam.
Backstage, Tamina asked Lana why she didn't have a match. Lana said that Tamina wasn't ready and that she doesn't strike fear in the locker room. Lana told Tamina that with her help, people would start fearing her and that together they'll be unstoppable.
Moving on, Daniel Bryan was approached by The Usos. D-Bry asks if he can be the 3rd member of their rap group. Usos asked him which members of the New Day they'll be facing at SummerSlam. Big E and Xavier Woods, with Kofi Kingston in the corner, was officially announced by the SD GM. Usos asked for a match tonight against Woods and Kofi. Bryan agreed and looked more amped than the Tag Champs.
Usos then put up a fist bump, and Bryan instead high fived their closed fists with a boom to top it, which was by far the funniest thing so far tonight
