In a new message from Aldis issued on social media, the general managersaid he "got to thinking," and realized that things were "a little unfair." He asked what would stop either Bayley or Naomi from refusing to tag in the other to get the shot at Jax's WWE Women's Championship. Aldis said given everything, he decided that the match is now a tornado tag match, meaning there are no tags and anything goes. The original stipulation for the "high-stakes" match put forth last week if Naomi and Bayley win, the woman who gets the pinfall gets a shot at the championship, but if either woman is pinned or submitted, they will leave "SmackDown" forever is still in effect.
