WWE Smackdown Results returned as Adam Pearce welcomed Cameron Grimes to Smackdown and Baron Corbin came in and talked down to him.
After Grimes mocked him, Corbin asked Pearce to explain how Grimes was worth a pick and he’s not, and called Grimes Mr. Irrelevant.
Grimes challenged Corbin to a match, and Pearce made it official for next week.
Rey Mysterio and Zelina Vega vs. Dominik Mysterio and Rhea Ripley w/Finn Balor
Ripley and Vega started it off, and Ripley tried to manhandle her but Vega used her speed to hit and run to hit a hurricanrana.
Zelina tagged in Rey, so Dom had to tag in.
They traded shots until Ripley hit a cheap shot, and Vega set Dom up for a 619, but ran into a boot by Ripley.

Rey went to work with a crossbody, and rode Dom’s shoulder to plant some rights until Dom dropped him on the top turnbuckle and hit a Mishinoku Driver for a near pinfall Vega broke up.
Vega kept Ripley from interfering and Rey his a 619, but Balor distracted him to buy Dom some time.
Dom tried to hit the Three Amigos, but Rey rolled him up after his second one for the win and Judgement Day attacked Rey.
