Owens says he is bringing back the U.S. open challenge...next week. Then he insults the Virginia crowd by saying he would never defend the belt in front of a bunch of hicks. AJ Styles comes out, likely to request a rematch.
Styles says he came out to get his rematch, just like everyone knew he would. Then Chris Jericho's music hits and the crowd goes absolutely nuts.

While Jericho is busy trying to put Styles on The List, Owens tries to leave. Shane McMahon comes out and gets in his way. He says Styles and Jericho both have valid claims to a rematch, and they will both get their opportunity at the same time in a Triple Threat match tonight.

Jinder demands to know who he will face at SummerSlam. As he starts to speak in Punjabi, John Cena makes his way to the ring.
Mahal cuts Cena off before he can speak and says he doesn't deserve to be WWE champion. Cena says he actually wanted to congratulate Jinder
on his win and claims to have respect for him after everything he has been through. He also gives Mahal a heads up that he will be coming after the WWE Championship, and he doesn't care how many allies Jinder has to protect him. He even refers to himself as SuperCena.

SmackDown Live

SmackDown Live opened up with an recap of the last week actions of AJ Styles and involving Shane McMahon.

SmackDown kicks off backstage with Daniel Bryan. He is soon joined by Styles, who seems like he's in a great mood and asks about Shane. Bryan tells him he has no idea what he's gotten himself into and adds that Shane was a man about the situation because he didn't ambush Styles.

Styles tells him that he felt so good demanding his opportunity last week that he wants to do it again. We then see Styles strolling down the ramp toward the ring.

Styles says that Shane must be crazier than anyone thought and then accepts his challenge. He admits that he wants to be at WrestleMania cause its the Ultimate Thrill Ride. However, he still maintains that Shane needs this match because the blue brand would crumble without him.

He then tells us that he's going to wait for Shane and added that if we thought that last week was bad, this one will be phenomenally worse. 

We return from the break to see Bryan on a call with Shane. He warns Shane that Styles is waiting for him. Shane says something that we can't hear and Bryan smiles and says it might work. 

Corbin walks in on him and demands Ambrose. Bryan tells him that he hasn't heard from Ambrose in a while. Corbin then says he's glad to have a day off and almost leaves. Bryan stops him and gives him a match with the Viper instead.

American Alpha vs. the Usos for the WWE Tag Team Titles

The Usos won 

 Baron Corbin vs. Randy Orton

Both men lie on the canvas until Ambrose appears on a fork lift and says, 'Corbin, you busy?'. Orton takes advantage of the distracted Corbin and finishes the bout with an RKO. 

Randy Orton wins.

Ambrose then walks to the ring and asks Corbin if he wants a match for the IC title at 'Mania and tells him he has got it. He underlines his statement with a DDT and then storms out. 

Young asks Orton what his response is after Wyatt's actions last week on the Titantron. He says he doesn't know what he should do to get rid of Wyatt and as he speaks, the light dims and all of a sudden Orton is surrounded by men in sheep masks. Orton tries to fight them but is overpowered. 

Tyler Breeze seems to have chosen to dress like Nikki Bella.

Before the match starts Fandango takes the mic and gives Cena tickets. He finally tells him that he will expose him for the poor wrestler that he is. He then introduces his 'muscle' as Breezy Bella. Cena points toward the ramp and Nikki Bella walks down it. 

Fandango vs. John Cena:

After Fandango throws some tickets at Cena, John takes control and finishes with a five knuckle shuffle. Breeze tries to help Fandango but is speared by Nikki Bella. The couple then plant the tag team in sync with an AA and a rack attack 2.0. They then finish the bout with the STF.

Cena wins.

Becky Lynch vs. Carmella:

Becky starts with a spin kick to the body and Carmella rolls out of the ring. Lynch follows his and lands a right hand. As they re-enter Carmella lands a boot to her face. However, before she can take advantage, she is ambushed by Natalya who clotheslines her. 

Carmella wins by DQ. 

James then joins the fray, followed by the Champ. James takes out Natalya and is inturn taken out by Bliss. Lynch then dives on Ellsworth and Carmella from the third rope and hits Ellsworth. After all the chaos, Alexa is left standing tall in the center of the ring.

Renee catches up with Styles backstage and asks him of his intentions. A car pulls up and Rhyno & Slater walk out, meanwhile Shane's music goes off in the arena. He strolls down the ramp and into the ring.

Backstage, Renee tells Styles that Shane is in the ring waiting for him . 

He tells AJ that he acts like a tough guy only when he has his back turned. He goes on to say that Styles could have handled it by speaking to him man-to-man or thrown down instead of ambushing him. 

He then threaten to go to Styles if he doesn't want to come out. 

Styles paces slowly down and walks into the Gorilla position. He stops, picks up a mic and walks out. He starts by telling Styles to calm down by taking ten seconds. He tries to tell Shane to understand him and says that he made a mistake. He then says that he's sorry.

He goes on to say that Shane did him a favour and says he's not like the other McMahons. He then says that he is going to walk into the ring and sincerely apologize man to man. As soon as he steps in, Shane rains right hands and the action pours out. He then plants Shane onto the barricade. Styles picks up the exhausted Shane, who turns it around into a suplex.

Shane then picks up a monitor, after clearing the commentary table and slams Styles with it. He places AJ on the table, climbs on the top rope and slams into AJ and the table with an elbow drop. The crowd is left chanting 'HOLY SHIT" as SmackDown draws to a close with Shane pointing at the WrestleMania sign. 

Rating : 90/90

Rating 90/90
The show was awesome and the matches was pretty awesome as well. The Royal Rumble Match I was wrong I was completely on team with Undertaker but Reigns had to be #30 but it is great to see Orton wining the Royal Rumble.


Maybe we'll do an Royal Rumble Aftershow seeing as the Predictions didn't go up as planned do to the new camera software problem and then it took forever to upload. So I apologize for that but I will do the after show though. Also, bummer Rollins didn't show up but he was banned but he still come face to face to Stephanie on RAW.

SmackDown Live

The show opens with Daniel Bryan being interrupted while trying to eat a shiny red apple.

She chases James into the crowd, where a waiting Bliss blindsides her and helps James finish her off in the ring.

Before AJ Styles calls John Cena to the ring, he shows the Royal Rumble poster. His head is way in the back of the group while Cena is front and center. He demands Cena come to the ring, and since his character won't allow him to back down from someone calling him out, he heads to the ring.
AJ plays a clip of Cena showing him disrespect on The Today Show. He runs down Cena and claims to have fully replaced him as the face of SmackDown. Cena lets him talk for a long time before responding.
Cena and Styles sold that segment like the pros they are. Cena played the homegrown hero to Styles' international star. Exchanges like these are why Cena still has his spot in WWE.
That segment was amazing!

Ziggler grabs a chair from ringside. JBL gets up from the announce table, but Apollo Crews is the one who blindsides Ziggler and sends him into the ring post.

Alexa Bliss comes out and mocks her for not being on TV for over a month and pretends not to know who she is. Bliss refuses to fight her and leaves after delivering one last insult.

Jericho calls Reigns a stupid idiot. Jericho threatens to walk to the ring and knock Reigns chicklets out of his mouth. Reigns asks Jericho if he is offering him a rematch.

RAW

The show opens with Mick Foley in the ring. He says one of his resolutions was to write the name of the city they are in so he doesn't forget like he did the last time he was on TV.

Jericho and Owens complain about the shark cage stipulation at Royal Rumble. Owens especially has a problem with having to defend the title against Reigns at all.
Foley says he wants to start the new year fresh. He says he has heard a lot about the Kevin Owens Show, so he is going to let him interview Goldberg on his own talk show segment tonight.
Stephanie McMahon heads to the ring.


The segment goes off the rails a little bit when everyone starts arguing. Stephanie complains about SmackDown beating Raw in the ratings last week.

This brings out Reigns to add his two cents. He gets in Goldberg's face, but Strowman comes out before anything can happen. He grabs the mic from a cowering Heyman and says if anyone will win the Rumble it's going to be him.

Reigns and Goldberg look at each other and deliver a double Spear to take Strowman off his feet. The show ends with Goldberg standing tall as Reigns heads to the back.
