WWE Smackdown Results returned as Miz and Bryan went back and forth, hammering on each other before the Miz got the upper hand and threw Bryan to the floor, and dropped him injured leg first on the announce table.
Miz threw Bryan in to the ring and locked in a figure 4.
Bryan hammered his way out of the hold and Zayn tagged in.
Zayn hit a Blue Thunder Bomb for a near pinfall, and Cesaro came in and hit an elbow for a near pinfall.
Cesaro then hit a vertical suplex for another near pinfall and Morrison came in.
Morrison kicked Bryan’s injured knee and then stomped him before the Miz came back in.
The Miz hit a kick and tagged in Styles and they made a wish on Bryan, but Bryan fought back with some rights to Styles.
Styles and Bryan met with mutual crossbody blocks off the ropes.
Miz, Morrison, and Cesaro pulled their opponents off the apron. While Miz beat on Nakamura, Cesaro threw Big E into the barricade and then stomped him.
Morrison stomped away on Otis, leaving Bryan with no one to tag in.
Zayn headed into the ring as Sheamus’ music played and he ran out and took his place on the apron as a team member.
Sheamus tagged in and hit Zayn with a ax handle, knocked Miz off the apron, and then hit a knee on Sheamus and Miz before he clotheslined the Miz over the top rope.
Sheamus then caught Morrison coming at him on the apron and hit a headbutt, then clubbing blows before Zayn rolled him up for a pin attempt.
Sheamus hit an Irish Curse backbreaker and Cloverleaf, but Morrison nailed him with a kick to break the hold.
Otis came in and hit Morrison with a slam/elbow drop move that looked pretty cool.
Cesaro then his Otis with a double stomp, and Big E hit a Big Ending on Cesaro, Mix hit a Skull Crushing Finale on Big E, and Nakamura hit a kick on Miz to send him to the floor.
Strowman’s impact
Zayn hit Nakamura with a Blue Thunder Bomb, then went for a Helluva Kick, but Sheamus met him with a Brogue Kick for the pin.
Miz and Morrison then attacked Sheamus, stomping and beating him down with a few hits from Styles.
Braun Strowman came out and ran over Styles, then hit Zayn with a clothesline and a chokeslam in Cesaro.
He followed that up with a powerslam on Zayne and Cesaro. He then threw Cesaro across the ring and hit with another running powerslam.
We love seeing Strowman back, but this was a pure clustermess that made absolutely no sense. Sure, it’s supposed to prepare us for the Royal Rumble, but throwing stuff at a wall to see if it sticks seems the wrong way to go.
At least the energy level was good at the end.
