Hello and welcome to WWE Smackdown Results!
Tonight should be a fun episode as it’s the Go Home Smackdown for SummerSlam and we’re also getting Jey Uso facing off with Solo Sikoa.
Of course, Roman Reigns will probably interfere, but it should be a fun one. Let’s get to the action!
Before the match started, Knight called up a graphic of the SummerSlam Battle Royal and mocked the Miz and called out Sheamus and said he’s going to add the accomplishment to Sheamus’ resume of being beaten by LA Knight.

When the match was about to start, the fans drowned out the commentators with chants of “LA Knight.”
Sheamus started it off fast by beating him down and mocking him, and after taking a shoulder block Knight hit an elbow and took Sheamus over the top rope with a crossbody.
Santos Escobar came out while they were on the floor and he was followed by the Miz and Grayson Waller and Karrion Kross. This is what Knight gets for calling them misfit toys.
The battle royal crew continued to filter out as Sheamus caught Knight and hit a White Noise on the apron.

Knight fought back and traded shots with Sheamus before Knight hit a powerslam and elbow off the ropes and planted Sheamus face first for a near pinfall.
Sheamus countered a Blunt Force Trauma with a roll up and then an Irish Curse Backbreaker before he headed to the second rope to hit a White Noise for a near pinfall.

Sheamus then locked in a cloverleaf, but Knight made it to the ropes to break the hold, but Knight ate a boot. Sheamus climbed to the top rope but just sat there, then he and Knight slipped and fell to the floor as Austin cheap shotted Escobar and took off as a brawl broke out.
Miz got into it and Sheamus pulled him onto the ring apron to his ten beats. Knight rolled him up, and Sheamus went for a Brogue Kick but Knight moved and he hit Miz.
Knight hit a Blunt Force Trauma for the win, and then avoided Kross and Weller when they went after him.
Backstage, Adam Pearce broke up an argument between the Brawling Brutes and the OC and told them to go have their match now if they want, and then Sheamus and Styles stared each other down.
