The current United States champion on the men’s side successfully qualified for the Money in the Bank ladder match on this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown when Trick Williams pinned Rey Fenix (just after he was hit with an RKO by Randy Orton) in their triple threat match. Could the current United States champion on the women’s side do the same later in the evening?
She was up against some incredibly stiff competition — former Women’s Champions in Jade Cargill and Alexa Bliss. It sure looked like she was going to be the one taking the fall to Bliss but because it was a triple threat, Cargill was there — although she was awfully late, and it didn’t come across well on television — to stop the referee from counting to three.
Then, just like the men’s match before it, Jayne was there to take advantage when Cargill hit her finish on Bliss, kicking her off and pinning Alexa to qualify.
The updated list in the women’s ladder match: Sol Ruca & Lola Vice & Jayne.
It’s a youth movement indeed.
