Dark Match:
Alexander Rusev defeated Zack Ryder by pinfall. Rusev won with a side slam finisher. A decent match, not just a total squash.
WWE SmackDown (Airing Friday):
SmackDown started and it looks like we’re getting The Wyatt Family vs. Cody Rhodes, Goldust, and Rey Mysterio at some point. Colorado Springs went nuts for Daniel Bryan. This is the first live show since the wildfires prevented the WWE from making it to Colorado Springs.
Daniel Bryan beat Jack Swagger. Vickie Guerrero and Kane-assigned Bryan with another match immediately against Cesaro.
Daniel Bryan defeated Cesaro by DQ. We got some Swagger and Zeb Colter shenanigans. They were ejected. Kane came out to “watch.” We got some great back and forth wrestling. Bryan went for 20 spins on the Cesaro Swing. Bryan hit the running knee. Kane came in and chokeslammed Bryan for the DQ. Cesaro hits Bryan with the Neutralizer after the match.
The Wyatt Family defeated Rey Mysterio, Cody Rhodes, and Goldust. An excellent six-man tag. Bray hit a crazy running block on Goldy, then hit Sister Abigail for the win. Great match. The Wyatts are legit creepy.
Emma beat Summer Rae in a dance-off. Summer Rae danced and was booed. Emma danced and was cheered. Emma won. Fandango attacked Santino Marella. Emma pushed Fandango over Santino. There was more Emma and Santino kissing hijinx.
Dolph Ziggler beat Titus O’Neil. Dolph won by pinfall. Darren Young was out for commentary. Titus was on his way to a win when Darren interjected, allowing Dolph to roll up Titus for the win.
Jimmy Uso defeated Road Dogg.
Sheamus defeated Christian. Good match. They worked a slow pace with Christian working over Shaemus’s left arm. Shaemus ended up winning with White Noise. No post show dark match. Christian attacked Sheamus, who cleared the ring to end the taping.
The Wyatt Family attacked Shaemus, causing Daniel Bryan to come out. Kane then came, which brought out the Usos. The babyfaces cleared the ring except for Erick Rowan, who ate the Usos double superkick, a Brogue Kick, and Bryan’s running knee. The babyfaces celebrated, we all go home happy.
Just wanted to note that a “CM Punk” chant broke out, but it was cut off by them cranking some music.
