After Carmella controversially lost to SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley in an instant classic last week, Naomi arrived and, along with Carmella, dropped Bayley. Following last week’s confrontation with the champ, Naomi and Carmella clashed for the right to challenge Bayley for the title at WWE Super ShowDown.
Carmella appeared to be closing in on victory when she trapped Naomi in the Code of Silence, but Naomi somehow dragged herself to the bottom rope to break the hold. Moments later, Princess Mella narrowly kicked out of the Rear View, but Naomi sealed the win and a SmackDown Women’s Title Match with a split-legged moonsault.
