Naomi is apparently an official women’s tag team champion, while Jade Cargill is on set, having helped Bianca Belair defend the belts against WWE Women’s Champion Nia Jax and Candice LeRae in the main event of “WWE SmackDown” . In a backstage segment on Gorilla, Belair went to hand one of the titles to Naomi, who said she wouldn’t take it until she earned it. Miss Money in the Bank Tiffany Stratton was also invited to watch the match from behind by LeRae and Jax, but made an appearance at the end of the fight.
Belair and Naomi dominated the first part of the match, but the challengers turned the tide when Jax interfered without Belair initially seeing him. Jax sent Belair shoulder-first into the ring post and used her braid, pulling her around the ring ropes. Jax distracted the ref so LeRae could get in some cheap shots on Belair. Jax backed Belair up and LeRae hit her with a missile dropkick, but Belair kicked out.
Naomi managed to intervene and counter the Annilator, sending Jax into the ring post face first, causing her to burst. Naomi eliminated her, then transferred Jax to Belair, who hit a 450 splash. LeRae took her partner out of the pin, however. Stratton came down the ramp with the briefcase and Jax wanted her to drop the matter, but the referee challenged Jax when Stratton handed it to her. She was knocked off the apron by Belair, who kicked her to the outside. Naomi hit the split leg moonsault on LeRae for the win.
