WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: BIANCA CELEBRATES HER VICTORY IN STYLE, TAG TITLE MATCH, AZEEZ LIGHTS UP THE THUNDERDOME, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2021-04-16 21:57:00

We are back and Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins are in the ring with a blue carpet and balloons on the ring posts.

Montez starts to sing and he says the feeling is right.  Angelo says it is time to do some spring cleaning on the tag team division and they will get their titles back.

Ford says that isn't the only reason they are raising their solo cups.   They got some inspiration over the weekend.  Montez says it was a night for the ages.  He says there was one match that he will tell his grandchildren about and it is the Smackdown Women's Championship Match.

We have a video package for the match including the post match celebration.

Angelo says he got the feels.  Montez says the party isn't quite over.  Montez says on Saturday he shared a genuine moment and they want to share this moment with all of you tonight.  

Montez brings out the new Smackdown Women's Champion . . . Bianca Belair.

Bianca takes the mic from her husband.  

Bianca says she feels like she has been floating since Saturday night.  She says she has been so blessed.  Despite the setbacks and struggles, she never thought this moment would be possible.  She says her family has been making history for generations, so she learned from them that you can change the game.  If you asked her a year ago if she would have main evented Wrestlemania and won the Smackdown women's title . . . I probably would have said yes.  That isn't cockiness, it is just who I am.  

If you can dream it, you can do it.  I went to Wrestlemania and I showed up and showed out.  It isn't just about me.  Sasha Banks.  Thank you because there is no one I would have rather shared the spotlight with than you.  We both made history.  

If you ever try to forget it, I left you with a little something to remember me by.

This is more about Sasha too.  This moment is so much bigger than that.  It is for the little girls watching in Raymond James Stadium and the ones watching at home thinking that could be them.  We are just getting started creating history.

Montez wants a group hug.

Bianca says it is time to drop them cups and throw those tissues away because you have to win the tag titles because we only wear gold in this house.

Sasha Banks is in the back with Sasha Banks and Sasha says Bianca . . . Sasha cannot think of what to say and she walks away.

Bayley says that Sasha probably wants a rematch but she cannot say anything.  Bayley says that while she was saving both nights, Bianca was in the ring crying.  She was crying because she didn't think she could win.  Bayley says Bianca isn't the type of champion you want.  There is one way to fix it and that is to restore dignity to the title.  I need to challenge Bianca and take her title.
