WWE Smackdown Results returned as introductions were made, and once the match started Flair dominated early on as she chopped Evans off her feet.
Evans slipped free of a slam attempt and shoved Flair into the turnbuckle and slammed her backwards before heading to the middle rope and missing a moonsault.
After rolling out of the way, Flair hit a backbreaker and mocked Evans as she hit a suplex and a big boot. She wrapped it up with a figure 8.
After the match, Asuka came out and attacked Flair and hammered away on her before mockingly saluting the crowd.
Backstage, Adam Pearce was on the phone when Bianca Belair came in and he said he was thinking about what she said last week about her being at ring side and what happens if one of them take a shot at her to goad them.
ASUKA OUTTA NOWHERE! 💥

He understands she’d defend herself, but he’s barring her from ring side and she needs to trust him about getting her shot and she mentioned how she was supposed to trust him last time and walked out.

The three met in the ring and the Usos each hit a superkick before connecting on a stereo one to lay Solo out.
After jawing at Heyman, they hit a duo Uso Splash to close out the show.
