Hello and welcome to WWE Smackdown Live Results!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuG_TOtBEfc
Tonight should be an interesting one as Ricochet will try to reclaim the Intercontinental Championship from GUNTHER and more.
We’ll be back at the 8 p.m. EST start time to get WWE Smackdown Live Results rolling.
Segment 1
Drew McIntyre and Sheamus exchanged words about MITB when Paul Heyman came out with Adam Pearce and Pearce announced that thanks to Heyman, they were out of MITB.
But they can get back in if they can beat the Usos in a tag team match.
Segment 2
Money in the Bank Qualification Match – Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Sami Zayn
Nakamura went for an armbar right off the bat, but Zayn gained the upper hand and pressed his advantage, but Nakamura kicked him to the floor as we headed to commercial.
Segment 3
This was a good match Nakamura had won after hitting a kinsasha on the floor, but he rolled Zayn into the ring instead of taking the count out, and Zayn caught him with a Helluva Kick to win it.
Segment 4
The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods) vs. Jinder Mahal and Shanky
This didn’t happen after the New Day refused a rematch (First time for everything) and got SHanky dancing. Shanky shoved Mahal away and Mahal left them in the ring.
The Viking Raiders attacked The New Day and Shanky from behind and destroyed them.
We’re glad the Viking Raiders were allowed to be aggressive and dominant heels.
Segment 5
2 on 1 Handicap Match – Sonya Deville w/Xia Li, Shayna Baszler vs. Lacey Evans and Raquel Rodriguez
This was a better than expected match as Deville held her own with some help, but she eventually ran into a Woman’s Right by Evans for the win.
Baszler and Li attacked them from behind, but Raquel and Evans fought them off and held the ring.
Segment 6
Natalya came out dressed like Ronda Rousey and mocked her coming and going, and Ronda came out and told her she’ll never hand the title over to her and tossed out a couple of insults before Natalya used a baby carriage to hold Ronda off so she could escape.
Segment 7
Intercontinental Championship – GUNTHER (c) w/Ludwig Kaiser vs. Ricochet
This was a quick match that could’ve gone shorter, but GUNTHER still dominated and won by pinfall following a power bomb.
Segment 8
Money in the Bank Qualifying Match – Tamina vs. Shotzi
This was a decent and quick match Shotzi came back and won with a DDT to qualify.
Segment 9
Pat McAfee challenged Happy Corbin to a match at SummerSlam.
Segment 10
Drew McIntyre and Sheamus w/Ridge Holland, Butch vs. The Usos (Jey, Jimmy Uso)
This started out well as Sheamus took control, but things broke down after Drew sent Butch into the barricade and he and Sheamus traded blows.
The Usos took them both out with dives as we headed to commercial.
Segment 11
This was a fun match as Drew and Sheamus got on the same page and Angelo Dawkins prevented Zayn from hitting a Helluva Kick on Drew.
Sheamus took out Jey with a Brogue Kick on the floor, and Drew then hit a Claymore on Jimmy to punch his and Sheamus’ tickets to MITB.
This was a pretty good show overall with some speedbumps in the middle. What did you think of it? Let us know in the comments below and thank you for joining WWE Smackdown Results. We had a blast and can’t wait for next week.
