WWE SmackDown Live Results: Highlights, Analysis, and Grades for June 6
By Grant Mannis
As the weeks until Money in the Bank continue to dwindle, the men and women of SmackDown Live prepare for another episode. Here is everything you should know heading into tonight’s show:
For the first time ever, Kevin Owens and Shinsuke Nakamura are going meet inside the squared circle on WWE programming. Widely considered to be two of the top talents on SmackDown Live, their match tonight is bound to impress.
After weeks of anticipation, the New Day finally made their debut on the Blue Brand. As one of the hottest acts in WWE today, the trio is a welcome addition to SmackDown Live.
Despite the credibility the New Day brings to the table, one team which isn’t happy to see them is the Usos. The reigning SmackDown Tag Team Champions have no interest in combating the group, no matter how confident they appear to be.
Following the announcement of the female Money in the Bank ladder match, Lana took to social media. Requesting entry into the match, the former valet voiced her opinions to Commissioner Shane McMahon. Are we going to see Lana join the other five women already selected for this historic contest?
Randy Orton is ready to strike back at Jinder Mahal, a fact which was made clear last week. His promo was clear and passionate, showing a driven side of the Viper that will soon be unleashed. The champion better be wary, as this side of Orton tends to have an appreciation for destruction.
In a rematch stemming from last week’s main event, AJ Styles and Dolph Ziggler will compete against one another once more. Will Ziggler make it two in a row, or is the Phenomenal One destined to bounce back?
