Charlotte Responds With Grace After Losing the Women's Title, Paige - Shane McMahon Exchange

- As noted, tonight's WWE SmackDown saw "The Iconic Duo" Peyton Royce and Billie Kay get called up from NXT. They attacked and destroyed Charlotte Flair, allowing Carmella to come out and cash in her Money In the Bank briefcase to easily become the new SmackDown Women's Champion. WWE posted this post-match footage of Flair making her exit.




- As noted, SmackDown Commissioner Shane McMahon announced on tonight's show that Paige is the new General Manager after Daniel Bryan submitted his resignation to work full-time as an in-ring competitor. Paige officially announced her retirement from in-ring action on Monday's RAW. Shane and Paige had the following Twitter exchange after their announcement in the opening segment:

#SDLive has been and always will be the land of opportunities and second chances. It was my PRIVILEGE to name @RealPaigeWWE as the new General Manager.
