Check out what happened during the SmackDown taping below (h/t Wrestling Inc).
– The Wyatt Family kicks off SmackDown in the ring. Luke Harper and Bray Wyatt cut promos on Reigns and Ambrose. Wyatt shows us what happened to Randy Orton on RAW last night. The segment ends with Braun Strowman yelling “run!”
– Paige vs. Sasha Banks is announced for tonight.
– Cesaro defeated The Miz with a Sharpshooter.
– Renee Young interviews Uso, Reigns and Ambrose backstage about their match later tonight.
– Paige vs. Sasha Banks is next. There was a small fight between Team PCB and Team BAD before the match as we get a look at Paige losing on RAW. Becky Lynch, Charlotte, Naomi and Tamina Snuka have been ejected from ringside. They fight to the floor and throw each other into the barriers. The referee can’t stop them from fighting on the floor so another referee runs down. Naomi and Tamina run back out and beat Paige down. Charlotte and Becky make the save. A big brawl breaks out and the referees try to break it up. Team PCB gets the upperhand as Team BAD retreats to the stage. There was no winner in the match.
– Byron Saxton interviews Seth Rollins backstage and he’s mad about Sting destroying his statue. He talks about his Night of Champions matches against Sting and John Cena. Sheamus interrupts and they have words.
– The New Day vs. Reigns, Ambrose and Uso is next. Reigns gets the hot tag and unloads. Ambrose hits Dirty Deeds on Kofi Kingston. Reigns hits a Superman punch on Xavier Woods. Uso tags in and hits the top rope splash but The Wyatt Family graphic flashes and the lights go out. They come back on and The Wyatts have Uso on the stage. Bray has him in a bear hug. Reigns and Ambrose run up to make the save but the lights go out, come back on and The Wyatts are gone. Reigns and Ambrose stand over a laid out Uso as we hear Wyatt’s voice taunting them.
– The Lucha Dragons vs. The Ascension is next. Stardust comes out with The Ascension. Stardust tried to get involved but Kalisto chased him away. Kalisto tuned around to Fall of Man from The Ascension for the win. After the match, Cosmic Wasteland beats down The Lucha Dragons until Neville makes the save and cleans house.
– Renee catches up with Team Bella backstage. She talks to Niki Bella about Charlotte possibly stopping her record on RAW next week. Charlotte interrupts and they have words.
– Ryback vs. Seth Rollins in a champion vs. champion Lumberjack Match is next. At one point, Ryback and Rollins are the only ones in the ring as Rollins hits a Pedigree for the win. SmackDown ends with Rollins holding up both titles.
Well, WWE better hope this episode of SmackDown delivers after last week’s ratings. By the look of this card, they’re at least trying since they put on Sasha Banks vs. Paige and a lumberjack match, which is hardly ever seen on SmackDown.
No winner in the Paige vs. Sasha rematch is a good thing. It keeps the bout alive for whenever these two feud. When they do, they’ll put on a classic match at a PPV.
So now Stardust comes out with The Ascension. WWE is horrible with continuity. Lucha Dragons teaming up with Neville is not much of a surprise. However, where this feud goes remains to be seen because there’s no clear program for this. It will take up a pre-show spot or be a buffer before a Night of Champions match.
Rollins also gets a big win over the Intercontinental Champion. Him facing Ryback in a lumberjack match to close out SmackDown should be fun to watch.
