Big Bad Blog Video Theater-Mandy Rose vs Asuka

Here's the match video of Mandy Rose vs Asuka from last night's episode of Smackdown. The whole purpose of this match is to set up a title match at Fastlane. While Asuka is being interviewed in the ring, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville come out to challenge Asuka. Once the match begins, Lacey Evans strolls out. They did this at Elimination Chamber. They had her stroll out and then return to the back. Other than the Royal Rumble, that is all that Lacey has done so far. That won't get her over. On this occasion, Sonya sends her to the back. But the distraction is enough to give Mandy the upper hand for the time being. The match continues until Mandy fakes an eye injury. Not surprisingly this ends with Mandy winning the match with a rollup. So that will set up a title match at Fastlane. Corey Graves said on commentary that Mandy fooled Asuka. But that's not true. Asuka knew she was faking but the ref held her back. I hate it when the refs are made to look stupid. At least Asuka is back on TV where she belongs. Enjoy the video!
