– This video from last night’s Talking Smack features SmackDown Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss after faking an injury to get counted out in her match against Becky Lynch. Bliss says she hasn’t had a chance to see the trainer yet but Bryan wonders why and accuses her of faking a limp. Bliss goes on to say it was fair for Becky to ask for her rematch and she respects Shane McMahon’s decision to grant it, even though she didn’t agree with it. Bliss says she needs to focus on herself and her injury because she wants to be the best champion she can be as she is the locker room leader now.
