Dot Net reader Lawrence Morgan is at the WWE Smackdown television taping in Portland, Oregon and is sending the following report on the taping for Thursday’s USA Network television show. Refresh the page for his latest updates.
Chris Jericho opened the show by cutting a heelish promo on AJ Styles. Styles came down for the match, but The Social Outcasts interrupted just before the match was going to start. This led to a tag match…
1. AJ Styles and Chris Jericho beat Curtis Axel and Adam Rose. Styles won after a springboard forearm/punch from Styles. The referee raised Jericho and Styles’ hands. Jericho clotheslined Styles and left…
The Dudley Boyz cut a great heel promo. The mentioned that they were sick and tired of Daniel Bryan and that they are not a nostalgia act. They said they will no longer be using tables…
2. Sasha Banks defeated Naomi. Sasha won with a Bank Statement. Becky Lynch was on commentary and was beaten up by Tamina at ringside…
The Wyatt Family came out for a promo and mentioned taking down Titans and Gods. They mentioned Big Show, Ryback, and Kane. When the promo ended, it seemed as if Bray was trying to do the Undertaker eye roll…
3. Neville and The Lucha Dragons defeated Stardust and The Ascension. The babyfaces won after a Salida del Sol, a senton from the top, and a Red Arrow on a member of the Ascension…
4. Chris Jericho defeated AJ Styles. Jericho won a really good match with a Codebreaker. Good near falls and false finishes. There were competing AJ Styles and Jericho chants throughout the match…
I assume the cameras stopped rolling. The Wyatts came out and surrounded Jericho. They attacked him and then Styles and eventually Neville and The Lucha Dragons came out to run off the Wyatts…
What a horrible Smackdown. Good main event between Styles and Jericho but nothing else of substance. No New Day, Reigns, Owens, Dolph, Show, Brock, Ambrose, Del Rio, Rusev, Uso’s, etc. Must have all been at the Daniel Bryan retirement party! Disappointing to say the least!
Shut up.
I agree
