SmackDown Live

SmackDown opens with a recap of Kevin Owens' recent campaign against Shane McMahon.

Shane McMahon is shown giving Owens the night off before we go to the arena to see a lot of Superstars standing on the stage for Shane McMahon's town hall.

Shane asks who wants to go first and Roman Reigns steps up to the mic. He says nobody respects Shane and walks away. Charlotte says Reigns was out of line and she thanks Shane for being supportive of her family. Liv Morgan tells her to stop being phony and asks if there is anything real about her.

Shane starts talking about all the people Owens mentioned last week as being underused. Murphy says he doesn't need help from Owens. Apollo Crews says he agrees with KO. Zelina Vega says Crews is just trying to kiss up to the fans. She challenges Apollo to face Andrade tonight. This is going nowhere fast.

The New Day has their mic cut off when Kofi says Shane is keeping people down. Shane ends the town hall but Cesaro has something to say. He says he wants another match with Aleister Black. Shane books it.

Kevin Owens comes out of the crowd and hits Shane with a Stunner.

The New Day comes out after the break to celebrate having the WWE  Title and Tag Team Titles. Big E says they will give Bryan and Rowan a rematch. Bryan's music hits and they walk onto the stage.

Bryan comes out with a mic and teases saying something before he walks to the back. He comes back out and does the same thing again. He comes out a third time, drops the mic and leaves.

Samoa Joe comes out and says he deserves another WWE title shot. Elias interrupts and says he should get the title shot. This brings out Randy Orton. The New Day suggests a six-man tag match. After talking some trash, Orton agrees, and they head to the ring.
