This is a very weird match and one can only assume that it's being put together because some major storyline is going to arise out of it. Bayley will be teaming up with Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville to take on Nikki Cross, Dana Brooke, and Carmella in a 6-woman tag team affair.

There are no stakes in this match at all, except for the fact that Nikki Cross has a Championship opportunity against Bayley at some point down the line. I can only assume that this is a showcase for the women of SmackDown and it honestly makes me wonder why Sasha Banks is not a part of the mix for now. One wonders if she's a little tired of the whole sidekick act and wants to kick the whole friendship business right out of the window, stepping into the title picture herself.

Or maybe it is just a match designed to kill time and has no bearing or consequence when it comes to the overall picture. In any case, it should be interesting to note whether Shayna Baszler potentially confronts Bayley ahead of the Survivor Series clash.
