Results by: Roy Nemer of Wrestleview.com

Smackdown Live kicks off with Charlotte Flair coming down to the ring followed by Becky Lynch and WWE Smackdown Live women’s champion Carmella.

The women’s champion kicks off by saying what’s more absurd than having her defend her title at Summerslam is Paige having her come out tonight for a face-to-face with them. Carmella says she is constantly punished for being a great women’s champion but she is the champion so life is good.

Carmells says poor Becky Lynch because she doesn’t stand a chance now. Becky asks her if she wants her to say she doesn’t want Charlotte in the women’s title match at Summerslam. She says she’ll say it but only because Charlotte is a great athlete. Carmella cuts her off and says Charlotte is great and won every women’s title there is to win but Becky was the first Smackdown women’s champion. But that’s only because Charlotte was on Raw.

Charlotte cuts in and says it’s over. The lies, cheating and manipulating all end at Summerslam. And that in order to beat Asuka, she had to dig up James Ellsworth. And she wonders why the WWE universe doesn’t respect her. Charlotte says maybe it’s because she’s a diva living in a women’s era. Carmella says she is a diva and she is damn proud of it. Carmella says she has something they will never have. She says to compare her beauty to theirs. Compare her body to theirs. Compare her charisma to theirs. Oh and she’s the women’s champion and they’re not.

Paige’s music hits and out comes the Smackdown general manager. Paige says her job as general manager is to create the best competition as possible for Summerslam. And she wouldn’t have gotten the opportunity if she didn’t beat Carmella so the WWE universe owes Carmella a big thank you. The crowd starts to chant “Thank you ‘Mella”.

Paige says that she knows all three of them will steal the show at Summerslam and as the general manager, it’s her job to build the best competition for Smackdown live. And why wait until Summerslam. Paige tells Carmella to get to the commentary table as Becky and Charlotte will be in a tag team match right now and out comes Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville.

Not because they were wrong but because they were true. I used to be the biggest AJ styles fan in the world but now it’s clear, AJ never wanted children. Maybe he never wanted a wife either. And that’s why AJ is such a great champion because hell do anything to say away from his family.

“At Summerslam, I pray that you win so AJ can know the feeling of losing the thing he loves the most. Because I lost him a long time ago. My sincerest gratitude, Wendy Styles.”
