WWE Friday Night SmackDown kicks off with the SmackDown Women’s Championship match.
Bayley is backstage with Kayla and asks her about Bayley’s emotions. Bayley says a lot of emotions like when she wrapped the chair around Sasha’s neck, it brought her joy. When Sasha forced her to sign the contract, it made her angry. But she feels sad. Because the biggest part of Sasha’s career is that every time she defenders her Championship, she loses. She hopes Sasha took advantage of her 13 day title reign and did her photo shoots because she will take back what is hers.

A very good match to kick off SmackDown. This Sasha and Bayley feud went on for too long. Carmella next in line against Sasha. I mean that could be good. But at thia rate, Bayley should probably be on Raw. #SmackDown

I just won't comment on anything related to the Mysterio family, Rollins and Murphy thing. With that said, a filler match and unless they do something with Otis, breaking up Heavy Machinery was a mistake. #SmackDown

And the other kids would stand there, watch and laugh at his expense.
But at 13 years old, he started lifting weights and learned how to take care of himself. He gained muscle and the bullying stopped. He became the bully. He bullied the bullies. He bullied the kids who stood there and laughed at his expense. He learned he could bully whoever he wants. He could make them do whatever he wants. He could make them eat whatever he wants. Dirt, glass, bugs. He could do whatever he wants. He could do this as Lars yells. Lars says that is intimidation, bullying and he loves it.
That Lars interview was worse than last weeks. The less said of it, the better. #SmackDown
