Last night on “Smackdown Live,” Naomi made her return to WWE during the women’s division segment of the show. After a brawl erupted between all 5 members of the Women’s Championship match at WrestleMania, she entered the fray and after declaring that she was back, entered herself into the contest.
They also announced the previously mysterious match type as a six-pack challenge.
WWE confirmed the news via their Twitter account:

Naomi has been out of action since suffering an injury at the “Elimination Chamber” pay-per-view earlier this year. Although she won her first “Smackdown Live” Women’s Championship at the event by defeating then champion Alexa Bliss, Naomi was forced to relinquish the title to Daniel Bryan nine days following the event.
Bliss would go on to win the championship on the February 21 episode of “Smackdown Live” by defeating Becky Lynch.
Naomi’s return means that she will join Lynch, Natalya, Mickie James and Carmella as they all compete against Bliss for the title.
Editor’s Note:
YES!! I was hoping this would be the case! I felt so bad thinking that Naomi would not get to compete at WrestleMania in her hometown, but I have to think that she is the favorite now!
