WWE Smackdown Results – 2/21/17
Smackdown Women’s Championship relinquished
Bryan gets a big reaction in Ontario. He talks about being on the road to WrestleMania and how it includes many twists and turns. This brings him to what he wants to talk about and introduces WWE Smackdown Women’s Champion Naomi.The new Smackdown Women’s Champion Naomi heads to the ring and holds up her championship inside the ring. She grabs a mic as a loud “YOU DESERVE IT” chant starts up in Ontario. Bryan agrees with the crowd and talks about Naomi working so hard when other women got opportunities before her. “Here you are, Smackdown Women’s Champion and we are so proud of you.” This brings Bryan to this hard decision he’s about to make. Bryan says he can relate to becoming champion and then getting injured. “I had to relinquish my championship and it wasn’t something I wanted to do, but it was something that I knew I needed to do.” Bryan talks about reviewing Naomi’s medical records with Shane McMahon and they now know that as a result of an injury she suffered at Elimination Chamber, she will be unable to defend her title in the required 30 days and he is sorry, but must ask Naomi to relinquish the Smackdown Women’s Championship effective immediately. Noami is not happy about this as she holds the title over her shoulder. She wants to say a few things. Naomi thanks Bryan for the kind words and how he knows exactly what she is going through right now. She talks about crying tears of joy last week accomplishing her dream of becoming a champion in WWE. “And now I’m here today, about a week later, filled with sadness and frustration.” Naomi talks about reaching the top of the mountain and how she is now in a free fall without control. She feels like she is letting her fans down. Naomi begins crying and says if she gives Bryan this title then it probably means her WrestleMania moment is gone as well. She takes the title off her shoulder and hands it to Bryan crying. Bryan motions for the audience to give Noami an ovation. He hugs Naomi. Naomi says whoever “borrows that title” while she is gone, she promises that everyone in the back will “feel the freaking glow” when she makes her return to the ring.
