Friday Night SmackDown was LIVE from the Performance Center
in Orlando Florida
Triple H joined Michael Cole on commentary. Sasha Banks and
Bayley kicked off the show to cut a promo then they were interrupted by Alexa
Bliss and Nikki Cross which led to a tag team match. (playa)
Sasha Banks and Bayley defeated Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross
after Asuka took out Bliss in the closing moments of the match. Nikki tapped
out to the Bank Statement.
Roman Reigns joined Michael Cole in the ring for an
interview to hype the match vs. Goldberg for the Universal Championship. Backstage, Kayla Braxton interviewed the returning Jeff
Hardy, who was interrupted by "King" Corbin to set up their match for
later.
Another backstage segment took place, Drew Gulak and Daniel
Bryan were approached by Cesaro, Sami
Zayn and Shinskue Nakamura where a match between Cesaro and Bryan was set up.They showed the SmackDown tag team Championship Match that
took place at Elimination Chamber. This was there way to fill some time on the show.
Back in the ring, John Morrison and Miz challenged any tag
team to step up and take on the champions in the future. SmackDown rolled on with Daniel Bryan in a match vs. Cesaro.
The match was won by Daniel Bryan. In the last match of the show, Jeff Hardy
defeated "King" Corbin.
In the main event, John Cena returned to hype up his match
against "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt, who was then joined in the ring by
Bray himself. It was nice that they rewound the clock to six years ago where
they had a match at WrestleMania 30. Bray told Cena to let him in as SmackDown
went off the air.
This was an entertaining show, despite there being no crowd
in attendance. Triple H was very fun and entertaining on screen and on
commentary. Respect to those that competed in the ring. I thank the WWE and the
superstars for keeping us fans entertained as well as keeping our minds off the
current situation for a period of time. Looking forward to Monday Night Raw which also
will be LIVE from the P.C. featuring an appearance from Stone Cold Steve
Austin.
Until next time, be well and stay safe. Thanks for reading
