After several weeks off of television two WWE Superstars returned to Smackdown Live to determine a top contender for the WWE Smackdown Women's Championship.
Both Charlotte and Becky Lynch inserted themselves into the title picture Tuesday night, coming back to the show. While both have been on the road with WWE (outside of Charlotte visiting her ailing father, Ric), neither were used outside of Mae Young Classic appearances. The two were booked in a fatal-four way for later in the show with Tamina and Naomi to determine a top contender for Natalya's Smackdown Women's Championship.
Charlotte emerged victorious following a big boot on Tamina to earn the title shot. This won't be the first high profile match that Charlotte and Natalya have had against one another. They famously performed at NXT Takeover, in addition to WWE Extreme Rules 2016.
You can see an excerpt of our Fightful.com live coverage below:
Charlotte comes back with a series of chops before everyone gets in the ring and hits a move. Naomi hits a double cross body for a quick two count before hitting Charlotte with a series of kicks and a jawbreaker for a near fall. Naomi puts Charlotte in a submission before Becky breaks it up and applies one of her own that Tamina breaks up. Charlotte then hits a double moonsault to both Tamina and Naomi for a near fall before locking in the Figure Eight. Becky hits a leg drop off of the top rope to break it up for a near fall before Tamina breaks that up.
Tamina then hits a Samoan drop to Becky before hitting a splash off of the top rope for a near fall that Naomi breaks up. Charlotte then picks up the pin and the win in all of the chaos.
Winner: Charlotte via pinfall
