Naomi busted out nearly every move in her arsenal to try and knock off her good friend Bayley for only the second time in her career, but the Role Model once again found a way to pick up a big victory.

The former WWE Women's Champion utilized a Bayley to Belly and flying elbow off the top rope to score the pinfall and earn a trip to Bad Blood in Atlanta.

Nia Jax, who was already going through some things after losing last week's tornado tag match, will now have to give Bayley her highly coveted rematch for the WWE Women's Championship next Saturday night.

Tiffany Stratton better hope the Queen of the Ring emerges victorious at Bad Blood, or Nia many not stop the assault the next time she puts hands on Miss Money in the Bank.

Understandably, Naomi seemed extremely disappointed in tonight's outcome. It's now back to the drawing board as she tries to end a singles Championship drought that dates back to 2017.
