Last year at WWE Crown Jewel, Natalya and Lacey Evans became the first Women wrestlers to perform at Saudi Arabia. Last night, WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley became the first WWE Women’s Champion to both defend and retain her title. As is the custom, both superstars wore t-shits before entering the ring. Bayley and Naomi put on an incredible performance at WWE Super ShowDown which evoked a boisterous reaction from fans at the Mohammed Abdu Arena.

Bayley entered the ring in a jet black jacket while her challenger Naomi appeared in a bright multicoloured bodysuit. The match started and two began going back-and-forth. Both had to wear t-shirts which made it difficult for either of them to perform high-flying moves. However, unlike Natalya and Evans, the two superstars were given more time to put on an impressive and exhibit their best in restricted circumstances. In the end, WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley avoided a well-executed Split-Legged Moonsault from Naomi and trapped her in a Rose Plant move to retain her title.
