WWE Hall of Famer didn’t like WWE’s booking of Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair at Summerslam. The legend said that the match shouldn’t have been a squash match even if Lynch was to defeat Belair. The former Divas Champion slammed WWE and said that the booking should’ve been a lot different. Talking to Subhojeet Mukherjee of Ringside News, Bella reacted to the Smackdown Women’s Championship match at Summerslam.

“I could tell you what wasn’t my favorite moment, and it was when she [Belair] lost. It definitely was not my favorite moment, and I don’t know if I actually had a favorite moment. Because I always back the women, and I’m always for the women, and you have someone like Bianca who is such an incredible talent, and you can’t help but get frustrated when you see moments like that for a championship that meant so much and was lost within seconds. So I have to admit for this SummerSlam, there truly wasn’t anything that was my favorite.”Bleacher report
