With Nikki Cross not medically cleared to compete against Bayley as scheduled, “The Role Model” instead offered up a SmackDown Women's Title opportunity for any challenger. She likely wasn't expecting Raw Women's Champion Asuka to answer the call.
The less-than-100-percent Asuka, who retained her title earlier in the night after defeating Zelina Vega, seemed to catch “The Role Model” by surprise and overwhelm her. Bayley was in dire straits after suffering a German suplex on the floor, but she struck Asuka with her now-trusty steel chair to get herself disqualified and keep the SmackDown Women's Title.
Asuka ruins Bayley’s celebrating with an impromptu challenge for the SmackDown Women’s Championship. Catch WWE action on WWE Network, FOX, USA Network, Sony India and more.
Bayley's night was far from over, though. Former best friend Sasha Banks struck her with a steel chair and unloaded on her with a Kendo stick, achieving some payback for Bayley'sdespicable assault earlier this month.
However, the SmackDown Women's Champion retreated before The Boss could continue to wield the steel chair against her.
