WWE SmackDown Summary and Highlights
The show kicked off with GM Nick Aldis informing Cody Rhodes that under no circumstances can he put his hand on Pat McAfee. Jelly Roll arrived looking for McAfee, and Aldis asked him not to get involved.
In the first segment of the show, Iyo Sky called out Jade Cargill, while Rhea Ripley tried to talk her out of it, since she isn’t at 100% after Monday.
GM Aldis made the match official for the main event of the show, with the title on the line, where Cargill retained over Iyo and tried to further punish her after the match, when Rhea arrived after taking down B-Fab and Michin during the show. The two faced off to close out the show.
On the other hand, Alexa Bliss defeated Bayley in the first match of the show, while Drew McIntyre delivered a promo on Jacob Fatu from inside a Jail Cell, and when Fatu was responding to it, Solo Sikoa and MFT interrupted, setting up a match between Fatu and Tama Tonga.
Royce Keys made his highly anticipated main-roster debut, defeating Berto of Los Garzas to pick up the win in his first outing.
Meanwhile, Pat McAfee cut a promo responding to CM Punk’s comments from Monday, asking Punk about where that royalty check comes from, whether it goes to needy families who dream of attending WrestleMania, or just disappears into a shady account labeled “I’m sorry, Saudi Arabia.”
He also accused Punk of being a fraud, comparing him to a politician who makes big promises but delivers nothing, then mocks him for backing down instantly once he steps into the room. McAfee also announced a 25% off for Saturday night tickets from now to the end of Monday Night Raw.
McAfee said that he wouldn’t recommend anyone spend money on Sunday’s show, but on Saturday, Randy Orton will save the business while winning his 15th world title. Cody Rhodes then arrived, telling McAfee that they can give him a replica title and the best fan experience so that he can go back to whoever sent him here and tell them, “Thank you, daddy!”
Rhodes asked McAfee to go home, while McAfee vowed that if Orton is unable to beat him, fans will never see or hear from McAfee. Cody exited the ring when McAfee baited him back, calling him an elite runaway artist. Randy Orton then appeared on the tron, standing over Jelly Roll.
Orton dragged Jelly Roll near the entrance ramp, kicking off a brawl where Orton and McAfee once again beat down Rhode and Jelly Roll, leaving the arena and taking the Undisputed title with them.
After the backstage segment, Fatu battled Tama Tonga in a singles match and managed to beat the MFT star. However, Fatu was ambushed by Drew McIntyre, who handcuffed him to deliver a brutal beatdown, until security and officials managed to intervene.
Sami Zayn and Trick Williams exchanged words in a promo also involving Lil Yachty. Williams then took on Matt Cardona, pinning up following the Trickshot, while Zayn took out Yachty ringside with a Helluva Kick, after the latter attacked him for interfering during the match.
Additionally, Danahsuen defeated Kit Wilson in his in-ring debut after a double curse and escaped when the Miz tried to attack him.
