Carmella Fires Back At Her Critics After Retaining The SmackDown Women’s Championship At Extreme Rules

Carmella beat Asuka at WWE Extreme Rules on Sunday night in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to retain the SmackDown Women’s Championship against her for the second consecutive pay-per-view.

Asuka was waiting to continue her attack on James Ellsworth, who was hanging from the shark cage suspended above the ring. Carmella capitalized on a distracted Asuka by pushing her into the shark cage, knocking the former NXT Women’s Champion out long enough for the three-count.

Internet: “Carmella sucks at breathing. It’s so unfair she gets to breathe more than girls who are better than her at breathing. She gets zero stars for not knowing how to breathe properly!!”
