WWE Smackdown Results returned as Jimmy ran roughshod backstage and shoved employees around as he tried to pick a fight and Heyman called Roman Reigns.
Grayson Waller welcomed us to the Waller Effect and introduced Bobby Lashley. He mentioned Lashley is struggling as a talent scout, but he’s about to get the Grayson Waller rub.
Waller didn’t waste any time in getting to the Street Profits losing last week.
Lashley admitted he made a mistake as he was looking for the next big thing, but they’re not willing to do what it takes.
"Back to the drawing board…" @fightbobby reveals he's no longer working with The #StreetProfits.
Does this open the door for "A-Town Down Under" to work with The All Mighty? 👀#GWEffect #SmackDown pic.twitter.com/nqWfVS0hm3

Waller pitched himself and Austin Theory as a team to be mentored. Lashley knows about Theory and passed on him.
Waller tried to sell Theory and the Street Profits came out dressed in matching suits that were similar to Lashley’s.
Lashley cut Dawkins off and told them he doesn’t want excuses or reasons, and if they want something out of him to prove it.
He left the ring and they came after him and he told them to prove it and show him what they’ve got.
Waller tried to get the crowd back into it and brought Theory out and he and Lashley had a brief stare down on the ramp.
Austin Theory w/Grayson Waller vs. Cameron Grimes
Theory went after Grimes when the bell rang, and Grimes fought him off and went on a run with numerous strikes and kicks for a pair of pin attempts.
Just as @CGrimesWWE was gaining momentum on @_Theory1, @GraysonWWE was there to shut him down! 💥🔥

Grimes caught him with a crossbody off the top rope for a near pinfall, and then hit a German Suplex with a bridge for a pin attempt.
Grimes sent him to the floor with a clothesline and hit him with a running kick on the apron.
Waller then distracted Grimes and Theory drove him into the ring post, rolled him into the ring for an A-Town Down for the win.
After the match, Theory went to Dragon Lee as he watched from the crowd and tried to pic a fight with him until the ref got between them.
Backstage, Rey promised to give Escobar the fight of his life and headed to the ring to defend the United States Championship in what should be a really fun match between these two.
Elsewhere, Jimmy was out of control as he beat down Ashante Adonis and Solo put him through a table with a yurinagi.
It’s going to be fun to see how bad things will go for Jimmy before the end of the night.
