Bianca Belair made her return on WWE SmackDown and celebrated with her hometown crowd while still having what looked like a splint on her broken fingers. She was interrupted by Naomi, who surprisingly wanted Bianca to forgive her for betraying Jade Cargill and herself.

Belair said that she and Naomi used to be best friends, but she couldn't forgive her. Naomi threatened to put Belair in a wheelchair before Jade Cargill came out and started a brawl with her.

Jade kicked Naomi in the face and took her down before tossing her out of the ring as she stared down her former tag partner. Nia Jax came out next, and we headed for the first match on SmackDown shortly after.
