In front of a packed crowd at the Rolling Loud music festival in Miami, Florida, Bianca Belair defended her WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship against Carmella. As with their encounter last week, though, Belair was once again too much for Carmella, and “The EST” emerged victorious this week on WWE SmackDown.
This title match was the second of two matches WWE held at Rolling Rock, as the rest of the show was held at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland.

The bout started somewhat slow for the two superstars, with both Belair and Carmella trading quick pinfall attempts before they battled back and forth with some punches and kicks. Belair then took control with a huge shoulder check that dropped Carmella.

Later in the bout, Carmella had what looked like one last chance to come out on top, as she elbowed Belair and attempted to hit her with a diving crossbody. However, Belair caught the challenger and slammed her to the mat. After “The EST” denied one last X-Factor attempt from Carmella, the SmackDown Women’s Champion hit the KOD for the decisive win.
