Welcome to the Smackdown review for September 18, 2020.
Story Progression
If you said that Sasha Banks would be the vulnerable babyface in a battle with Bayley a few years ago, it would be hard to believe. Banks nailed this role. Speaking in a neck brace, Banks was angry, but she showed real emotion. Tears coming down her face, Banks spoke about everything she had lost. It felt real, and Bayley attacking from behind made her a top level heel.
Results
Cesaro beat Gran Metalik.
Nikki Cross beat Lacey Evans.
AJ Styles beat Sami Zayn.
Roman Reigns and Jey Uso beat Sheamus and Baron Corbin
Final Thought
The IC Title will be a ladder match at Clash of Champions.
