Alexa Bliss vs. Chelsea Green vs. Michin

[6.0] "A fairly solid Triple Threat with Bliss getting the, expected win. I can't lie when I say that I would have rather seen Michin get the opportunity to be involved in Money in the Bank, as I don't know that she's ever been in one before. That said, I completely get going with Bliss, as she's far more popular."

[2.0] "I was there for this match in person and it was the one that everyone with me agreed was the worst of the night. It was just bad comedy wrestling, all of the spots were the same as in every other match and we were just kinda sitting there waiting for the match to end and the rest of the stuff to happen. Im sure it was fun for someone but I really didnt care."

"No matter how much you practice the match, it will always look like you practiced when you go at this speed. This women's division on Smackdown is dire. Just do five minute matches where people look good. Please."

[3.0] "Weak chemistry between the contestants, drawn-out moments and lack of a clear plot made the fight boring. The audience was clearly losing interest. I expected more from such a cast. Hopefully it was just a bad night. Although it would seem that qualifying matches always surprise us, but not this time."

[8.0] "A fun fast paced match. Not as good as the triple threat on RAW with Roxxie, Nattie and Becky but that would have been an incredibly hard bar to reach. I thought this match was pretty awesome though. Michin is an awesome striker, Bliss is very athletic and Chelsea was kinda the glue that kept the match together. Alexa has one of the coolest finishers in WWE and she would make Bray Wyatt proud if he were still with us. If Alexa continues her training I think she will be an incredibly exciting prospect in a division that has grown and improved so much since her absence."

[5.0] "Yeah it was a decent match, nothing really outstanding to comment on. The good thing is to see Alexa Bliss back week after week."

[7.0] "This was a very fun opener for me. I'm glad Alexa Bliss is finally back on a consistent basis for WWE. She adds a lot to the Women's Roster on SmackDown. I really am glad she won as well because she adds the veteran presence to the Women's Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Chelsea Green did a great job with the role she had. I wish she were in the match, but I guess we gotta wait for next year unless they have a last chance match to get in. Michin adds more to this match as well. Overall, a very fun, solid opening match with Alexa Bliss being the first woman in the Ladder Match for Money in the Bank."

[6.0] "This overachieved, fuelled by Alexa Bliss' continued popularity. The people again love her here, giving this a heat that the SmackDown division's non-title matches have consistently lacked. It helps that inside the ropes, she's really going for it too, visibly toughing things out and performing with a palpable spirit. That gives her current outings a charm that wasn't there in the uneven 2022 run, making for a good fit opposite Green and Yim's usual effort. ***"

[5.0] "Nothing wrong with this match at all however the predictability of the result prevented me from getting invested in anyway which is a shame because I thought Michin and Chelsea put on a pretty decent performance."

[7.0] "Fine match that struggled for heat early but eventually got on some kinda track. Michin is in need of a heel turn or some version of a change/upgrade; her schtick works in her mind but not with the fans. Returning Alexa Bliss mostly worked with Michin to keep Chelsea out of the match as much as possible. Green eventually hit her finisher on Michin, Bliss rolled Michin out who did the work herself and rolled out mostly on her own strength, even though she was still stunned by Chelsea's double-hook facebuster "Un-pretty Her." Then Bliss hit the Sister Abigail tornado DDT to steal the victory. Not sure where they're going with Green, but every loss feels like forces working against her organic popularity."

[7.0] "It surpassed my expectations.Nice match with a good rhythm. I was expecting Chelsea to win, which would have been logical, but Alexa won. You get the feeling that the WWE have less and less faith in Chelsea as she loses the title and now the MITB spot. What does the future hold for Chelsea?"

[8.0] "The match became significantly more competitive during the break, as all three women started to get more physical. While Bliss and Michin were clearly the crowd favorites, Green was still managing to get a solid reaction from the audience. Aside from a couple of spots that didn't quite land, most of the action in this match was solid. However, it lacked the intensity you'd expect from a match with this kind of high stakes."

[5.0] "All three superstars' performances in the MITB Qualifier that started the show were decent. I wish they'd had more time to showcase their talents. Alexa looked more at ease in this match, shaking off the ring rust. Michin and Chelsea have been on opposite sides of the ring for a long time, so they work well together. Chelsea brought something extra to the match with her character work, something Alexa and Michin lacked."

[5.0] "Good enough match featuring some good comedy spots with Alexa moving on to Money in the Bank. Although I think Michin and Chelsea deserve a spot in MITB after the year they've had, I think Alexa winning was the right call."

[7.0] "I can't believe it, this is a good match, enjoyable and funny also without a not outstanding fighting performance. Alexa Bliss made a good job, a miracle. (6.5/10)"

[4.0] "Michin shaking her ass to very little reaction is truly embarrassing stuff. The match was standard tv fare but I did like Bliss doing a modified Sister Abigail. Otherwise this wasn't anything special and if you just watched the highlights on YouTube you got everything you need."

[6.0] "Thought that this was a solid match to be fair. I would have preferred to see Chelsea win, but not against Alexa. It'll be interesting to see who they pad the rest of the match out with.decent offence, decent pacing and it did the job."
