8. Six-pack challenge for the SmackDown Women’s Championship – WrestleMania 33
In 2017, Naomi, Becky Lynch, Carmella, Mickie James, and Natalya challenged Alexa Bliss for the SmackDown Women’s Championship—the first time the title was defended at WrestleMania. This was a fun match, that was kind of upstaged by the other multi-women match that night.
Although to be fair, the match seemed rushed because it was added to the main card at the last minute. These six women deserved to be there, but they got less than half as much time as the Raw Women’s Championship. There were some great moments but there wasn’t enough room for the audience to digest them.
In all, the story was all about the hometown girl, Naomi’s, return to reclaim the title she was forced to vacate due to injury. Her victory via submission was a feel-good moment for the Orlando crowd, that helped to illustrate how far her character has come. She deserved this WrestleMania moment.
