11/14 WWE SmackDown Live Results – Welcome to WrestlingAttitude’s coverage of WWE SmackDown on November 14, from the MVP Arena in Albany, NY.
We are live from the MVP Arena in Albany, NY, as Rhea Ripley’s music plays and she makes her way to the ring with Iyo Sky.
Rhea says since she has been out with a broken nose, Kairi and Asuka have been bring about some chaos. Now that they have the tag titles, they feel untouchable. Then you throw Nia Jax and Lash Legend into the mix, and now they think they are untouchable again because they have the numbers advantage. Rhea says the funny things about numbers is that you have more enemies.
Iyo says she loves enemies, but they always catch up to you. They have nowhere to hide. Iyo yells out WAR GAMES.
Rhea says they aren’t going in alone. They bring out two of their teammates, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss.
Alexa says the Kabukis want to play dirty. NIa and Lash want to run in there, great. Now we get to get them all at the same time. They started and we get to end it. As soon as you mentioned War Games, we knew we were in.
Charlotte says she can’t do this. She can’t pretend any more. She tells Rhea that she does not like her and she does not trust her. She says she thinks Rhea is a snake, but you probably don’t like or trust her and think that Charlotte is a snake. She cannot blame Rhea. There is too much history and bad blood. Having the same enemy does not change that. She tells Lexi that she is her friend and she trusts her. If you want to do this, count her out.
Charlotte leaves the ring and goes up the aisle while Alexa wonders what is going on.
Charlotte goes to the back.
