WWE Smackdown Results returned as Sheamus and LA Knight got into it in Pearce’s office, and Peace offered to put them both in the SummerSlam Battle Royal and also set up a singles match between them next week for one of them to gain momentum.
Karrion Kross w/Scarlett vs. Karl Anderson
Backstage, Anderson asked the rest of the OC to let him do this on his own since it’s personal. He really should’ve brought Michen with him to counter Scarlett.
Anderson went after Kross as soon as the bell rang and he didn’t let up and hit a neckbreaker off the middle rope after landing several blows.

Scarlett grabbed Anderson’s leg to give Kross an opening and he unloaded on Anderson and nailed a Kross Hammer, and finished it off with a Final Prayer for the win.
After the match, he locked in a Kross Jacket and then took off when Styles and the rest ran out to help.
Jey Uso vs. Grayson Waller
Jey got the better of their initial lockup, but Waller nailed him with a shoulder block off the ropes before he caught Waller with a knee.
Waller sent him into the turnbuckle and stomped him down, but hurt himself with a headbutt while Jey was unphased.
Jey body slammed him and then hammered away on him before Waller fought back. Jey caught him with a step up kick and took his time until reigns’ music played and he, Solo, and Heyman came out to distract Jey.

Waller caught Jey with a spinning kick to take advantage.
With Reigns sitting comfortably in a chair on the ramp, Waller continued to press his advantage with a neck lock, but Jey fought back and broke the hold with a jawbreaker.
After fighting Jey off the middle rope, Waller hit an elbow off the middle rope for a near pinfall and then hammered away on him while mocking him, much to Reigns’ amusement.
Jey ducked a kick and hit a superkick, but he ran into a spinebuster.
Waller then mocked the Rock’s People’s Elbow and it cost him as Jey avoided him and countered a rolling stunner with a superkick.
Jey glared at Reigns and then hit Waller with a spear to send a message to Reigns. Jey closed it out with an Uso Splash for the win.
Solo attacked Jey from behind after the match and was going for the Samoan Spike at Reigns’ approvale, but Jey avoided it and sent him to the floor with a superkick.

Reigns ran into the ring and Jey hit him with a spear and went for an Uso Splash but Solo pushed him off the top rope.
Solo hit a yurinagi and he picked Jey up so her could hit a Samoan Spike as Reigns hit a spear. Reigns then mocked him with the title belt as fans distracted Reigns with a ‘you got pinned” chant.
They hit another Samoan Spike and spear on Jey and Reigns celebrated afterwards.
This was a good hint at what we’ll see at SummlerSlam if Jey doesn’t get ahead in the numbers game. DO you think Jey has a chance? 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.
See you then!
