WWE SmackDown Live Results – April 9th, 2019

Welcome to Ringside News’ SmackDown Live results. Please keep refreshing throughout the night and we will keep updating as the show is going on. Everything kicks off at 8:00 PM!

Kofi Kingston won at WrestleMania and it was a big deal when it happened. Since WWE pulled a bait and switch on the RAW After WrestleMania, Kofi is still the WWE Champion. So you better believe The New Day will be celebrating.

The SmackDown Tag Team Titles are on the line in a match that should have probably been on WrestleMania. The Usos will put their titles on the line against The Hardy Boyz meaning you never know what can happen there.

The Miz has a lot to think about after his loss to Shane McMahon at Mania. It looks like he will have something to say about that too.

Becky Lynch said herself that she is a marked woman. Lacey Evans took the first shot on the RAW After WrestleMania. Now we will just have to see if someone steps up on the blue brand to try and ruin The Man’s night.

We also have new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions and they are IIconic. Billie Kay and Peyton Royce are likely to be there with a hilarious sketch planned. You also never know when any title in WWE will be defended next including new champions.

Rusev took a double team move and then the heels went in, but Black ran them all out. They all did Black’s sit-down taunt and then they cut to commercial.

The heels eventually took control as Nakamura started laying some punishment on ALI followed by Rusev doing the same. Rusev took everyone out and ALI was the legal man, but he had nobody to tag. Then ALI came back with a tornado DDT and he got to the tag to Black as Andrade took a tag too.

Then as Becky was leaving, Lacey Evans ran from the back and laid out The Man with another Women’s Right. Lynch sold this by toppling down.
