It also talks about how RAW still treats its women's division as a side show and only features them generally in 1 or two segments at BEST whereas Smackdown integrates them seamlessly into their show and PPVs without constantly harping on the fact its a women's match, which is super true. Raw has 3 hours and you may get one or two segments out of the women, Smackdown on the other hand, the women routinely are featured in matches AND segments all throughout the night.
To the naked eye, it may appear as though WWE's Raw brand has a superior women's division to its less-celebrated SmackDown Live rival.
Stars such as Sasha Banks and Charlotte, whom the promotion has fiercely pushed to the forefront through historic matches like the first female Hell in a Cell, would seemingly solidify the Monday night staple's argument for the superior division.
Factor in the presence of wildly popular underdog Bayley and unstoppable force Nia Jax, and you have the core of one of the best women's rosters that fans have seen since the height of Trish Stratus and Lita's popularity in the 2000s. Yet, eight months into the brand extension, it is impossible not to recognize just how thoroughly SmackDown Live's division has outclassed, outshined and outproduced its red-brand counterpart.
So much energy is put into rewarding itself for its evolutionary stance on women's wrestling that the Raw brand has forgotten to properly develop its female stars.
SmackDown, on the other hand, has taken the female talent it has at its disposal and crafted characters out of them that allow fans to invest in each one individually.
