SmackDown

This week’s SmackDown opens with the Head of the Table, the Universal Champion, Roman Reigns coming to the ring alongside Paul Heyman.

Roman says he believes in being direct about how he’s feeling. Last Friday he wasn’t happy but with council from Paul Heyman and a week to chew on it, he changed his position on the Tag Team Championship opportunity for The Uso’s tonight. Reigns says it is no secret that he’s the centrepiece and everything revovles around him but he has allowed this to happen. Jimmy said it all last week and he said he would win, so he had better win. Reigns asks Heyman to bring his cousins out and they acquiecse.

Jey Uso hugs Roman but Jimmy doesn’t and Roman tells him to acknowledge him. Jimmy says he thought he did a year ago at Hell In A Cell, when Roman choked them both out. Tonight isn’t about that, it’s about winning the Tag Titles and making the family proud. Roman sighs and wishes them good luck. He says Jimmy called his shot, he gets it, he does it himself but he also gets the job done. Roman tells Jimmy they have to win and that the whole family is watching. Jimmy says they become 7x Champion’s tonight.

Rey looks to slide under the bottom rope onto him but Jey catches him on his shoulders and hits a big Samoan drop onto the announce desk!

Back from the break and Rey hits a drop toe hold onto the turnbuckles. He looks to tag but gets dragged back by Jimmy. Rey counters both Uso’s and tags Dominik who knocks them both out of the ring. Dominik dives through the ropes onto both, then gets Jimmy back inside and hits a springboard tornado DDT. Dominik goes up top and jumps but The Uso’s avoid him and hit a double-team Samoan drop for a near-fall.

The action breaks down and Rey jumps on Jey at ringside but Jimmy takes him out, then counters and superkicks Dominik. Jimmy goes up top and looks for an Uso Splash but Dominik avoids it and rolls him up for the win but Jimmy had his shoulder off the mat!

Winners: Rey & Dominik Mysterio

The Uso’s argue with the referee afterwards and try to show him what happened. We see Roman Reigns watching backstage and he’s shaking with anger. He tells Heyman to bring them to him.

*Commercial Break*

The Uso’s are backstage trying to explain to Roman but he shouts at them. Roman says they lost to a child and the worst part is they called their shot. The good news is, they still have some time in the show to amend their mistake. They need to make it right. He says they are six times Tag Team Champions who were on WrestleMania once, and in less than a year with the Tribal Chief, Jey closed the show with him. Did their family proud. Roman asks Jimmy if he understands his position but he asked Jey by mistake and Jey isn’t happy about it. Roman laughs and says, the way things are going, it hardly matters which is which.

Kayla Braxton is sitting backstage with Seth Rollins and asks what explanation he has for demolishing Cesaro two weeks ago. Seth says she’s trying to frame him in a bad light but he doesn’t owe her or the WWE Universe anything. She says Cesaro will never give up or back down, so what happens when he returns to SmackDown. Seth takes his microphone off and throws it at her while smiling.

The Street Profits are backstage and Chad Gable interrupts them. He tells them they’re on a downward trend and he’s been studying their tapes. Montez has lost six inches off his frog splash and he can help them the same way he has helped Otis. He asks if they’re ready to unleash their inner alpha and if he can get the smoke. They laugh and say it’s a hard no.

*Commercial Break*

The Uso’s are backstage with Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville. They’re arguing their case for a rematch and Pearce says he knows it was a mistake but the referee’s decision is final. Sonya undermines him and says they’ll take it under advisement and make a decision.

Carmella Vs. Liv Morgan

Liv looks to lock-up but Carmella slaps her in the face. Liv chases her out of the ring and looks to stomp her when getting back in but Liv grabs her foot and drags her outside. Liv slams Carmella into the barricade, then the apron repeatedly. Back inside, Carmella attacks Liv and takes her to the corner for back elbows. Liv avoids Carmella in the corner and hits a backbreaker, then kicks her into the buckles. Liv misses a knee to the back on the ropes and Carmella slams her down, then applies the Code of Silence for the submission win.

Bianca Belair is walking backstage and she’s making her way to the ring to challenge Bayley after the break.

*Commercial Break*

Rey and Dominik Mysterio are shown leaving the arena but Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville stop them. They say they’ve reviewed the footage and the referee definitely made a mistake so they’ve made the decision that The Uso’s will get another title shot… tonight! Rey and Dominik say that’s fine and walk back inside.

Bianca Belair comes to the ring and she says Bayley has been jealous of her since WrestleMania, but she hasn’t done anything about it. Bianca says all Bayley does is laugh but the WWE Universe is laughing at Bayley, not with her. She says Bayley’s laugh is annoying and it’s getting to her but she isn’t the first to try and get to her. Bianca recounts some haters and says people called her man-ish for her physique but she’s left those people in her dust. However no-one has ever laughed in her face before. Bianca challenges Bayley to a match at Hell In A Cell.

Bayley appears on the Titantron, laughing like crazy. She says the world does not revolve around Belair, so she won’t just walk out there and answer her. In fact, she isn’t even at the arena. She’s in her sanctuary – a room with a couch and pictures of herself. Bayley says Belair wants to give her a fair shot at the title, a rematch, and so obviously she accepts and when it’s over she’ll be laughing at her. Bayley’s face appears on every screen in the ThunderDome and her laugh is echoed hundreds of times. Belair looks freaked out.

The Street Profits are backstage but Otis appears and he’s not happy. Otis says they were out of line for mocking Chad earlier tonight, they need to apologise. Dawkins and Ford say they don’t apologize to anyone. Ford tells Otis that Gable is holding him back and he needs to get out of the academy. Otis slaps Ford and slams Dawkins into a production box.

*Commercial Break*
