WWE SmackDown results: Baszler and Jax defeat Bayley and Sasha Banks
WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley and Sasha Banks sought to win back their Women’s Tag Team Championships when they challenged Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax to a rematch. The champion dominated the match from the start as Nia Jax went on to take down the challengers with a powerslam. However, Bayley soon fought back and helped Banks take down Jax with a stunner/powerbomb combo. Sasha Banks then hit Shayna Baszler with a running knee but failed to do the same again as Baszler moved, forcing Banks to crash into the ring post.
Shayna Baszler then started targeting Sasha Banks’ knee and came close to trapping her in the Muta Lock but Bayley appeared and delivered a Bayley-to-Belly to Shayna Baszler. The challengers took over for a couple of minutes before Nia Jax entered the ring and grounded them with a crossbody. She then pinned both challengers to secure the win.
