Smackdown continued to come up with good episodes. Last night, a solid women’s championship match was the main event of the show. We also witnessed a match to determine new challengers for the tag team champions. Also, there was multiple Hell in a Cell build-up situations. Check out the results from the show hosted by the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Smackdown kicked off with The New Day inside the ring. They were out to celebrate their championship win from last week. Booker T made a surprise return on the show to join the party. He welcomed the unicorns to the five-time championship club. The Hall of Famer ended the segment doing his pendant Spinarooni move. Big E tried to do it but failed, giving us a hilarious moment.
The New Day joined the commentary table for the opening match of Smackdown Live. It was the first match of tag team tournament. The Bar took on The Colons and Gallows-Anderson in a triple threat match. Colons hit the backbreaker on Gallows to almost get the pinfall. But Cesari came from the back and sent Primo outside the ring. He got the pinfall win instead to take his team to the final round.
Billie Kay received a match on Smackdown against Naomi. She mocked the Canadian crowd prior to to the start of the matchup. Peyton Royce provided the distraction after which Naomi tried to take her out with a dive. But she digested a kick to the face from Peyton. Billie hooked the leg inside the ring to get the win on Naomi.
Jeff Hardy came out to the ring to address Randy Orton on Smackdown. He addressed the Viper having an issue with him ever since coming back to the show. Last week, he sought a sweet redemption to The Viper with a Swanton Bomb through a table. Orton came out to the ring only to hear that he will face Hardy on October 16th inside Hell in a Cell.
Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella came out to the ring in a huge ovation from the Smackdown crowd. A Brie chant broke out in the arena. The younger Bella said that she just could not sit at home and watch Maryse help The Miz cheating. Andrade Almas came out with Zelina Vega to have a confrontation with the couple.
Bryan wanted to face these two in a mixed tag team match. Paige came out and sanctioned this match, right away. Brie and Bryan were in firm control of the match after delivering a double under hook suplex to Almas. But The Miz came out and attacked Bryan from the back. The referee called for the bell as Maryse threw Brie into the barricade. Miz locked the Yes Lock on Bryan whereas Maryse planted Brie with a DDT to end the segment.
AJ Styles showed up on Smackdown Live calling out Samoa Joe. But the contender instead appeared on the tron. He called Wendy Styles once again to remind that AJ never came back home to his family. Next week, Joe intends to join Wendy and Annie for a BBQ party. AJ ran to the back in search of Joe after hearing this.
Charlotte and Carmella competed for the Smackdown women’s title in the main event. Carmella was in firm control of the match for a significant part. She failed to get the win even after delivering two super-kicks. Charlotte then followed up with a spear, natural selection and the Figure Eight Lock for a submission win. Becky Lynch attacked her from behind after the match to announce she’d get a title shot at Hell in a Cell.
