the roster is seen surrounding the apron.

Battle Royal

Apollo Crews won-

He is now the final spot in the six-pack challenge to determine the No. 1 Contender to the WWE World Championship

Shelton Benjamin is coming soon to SmackDown LIVE.

Natalya vs. Becky Lynch

Becky Lynch won

As Renee Young is interviewing Becky after the match, Alexa Bliss comes out and delivers a promo about how she is what the new era looks like.
Then Naomi comes out and tells her to shut up. Then Carmella comes out moonwalking and says SmackDown is now fabulous. Eva Marie interrupts her.
Eva has a special announcer introducing her, which is actually kind of an interesting addition to her character. She doesn't even say anything. She just poses near the stage.
But what do the women have to fight for? There hasn't been a title for them announced for SmackDown LIVE as of yet.



Miz TV

The Guest is The Miz interviewing him self- shocking.

But thankfully, Randy Orton came out and interrupted The Miz.

Orton and Miz trade some sarcastic remarks before Orton takes a lap around the ring while the fans chant his name.
Orton asks for a match to help him shake off the ring rust. The Miz says he isn't going to fall for his tricks. Orton makes a joke about Maryse, so she accepts his challenge for her husband.

The Miz vs. Randy Orton

Randy Orton won

Video package is seen of American Alpha and will debut on SmackDown Live next week

Heath Slater gets in the ring and takes out a jobber who was waiting for a match. He grabs a mic and asks how he wasn't drafted to either brand. He says he should be in the main event to make it a magnificent seven-pack.
He gets the crowd to chant "Sign Heath Slater." Shane comes out and says there are better ways to get a job like sending in a resume.
But then Slater gets mad about that and says to go to WWE Network and search his name and you will see his resume. And heath slater says he is the hottest free agent right now and to sign him and then Shane says he is right he does see the hottest free agent and
Rhyno gets in the ring and hits a Gore to Slater, which puts a smile on Shane's face. It looks like Rhyno is part of SmackDown now

Six Pack Challenge- Winner comes #1 Contender for the WWE World Championship

John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt vs. AJ Styles vs. Baron Corbin vs. Apollo Crews vs. Dolph Ziggler

Dolph Ziggler won and now is the #1 Contender for the World Championship against Dean Ambrose at SummerSlam.

Dolph Ziggler celebrates after the match, and that leads to Dean Ambrose to come down to the ring and get in the face of Ziggler and holds up the title and then Daniel Bryan came out and held up both hands in the air, and then Shane McMahon came out to be apart of this segment. They all exchange words and hype the match for SummerSlam.

Which I have to say is going to be very awesome to see.


Rating : 40/40

It was an okay show. But it didn't top RAW this week. The Main Event was the most exciting to me. We didn't get a women's title for SmackDown but no worries I am sure they're just building up the Women which okay. No second Women Match but maybe they will create some great things next week . We did get to see the Women for a brief moment on SmackDown.
But it is just the first week. It will get better with time.

and how he missed the WWE!

Jericho says just being in the ring with him puts Orton on a different level. Orton says he may drop Jericho with an RKO, but Y2J says he may hit Orton with a Codebreaker out of nowhere. Jericho says things have changed since Orton has been gone and that he wants to give Orton a present for his return, the gift of Jericho. “Drink it in, maaaannn!” Orton tells Y2J he looks like Ellen DeGeneres. “Ellen!” chant from the crowd.

Jericho then talks about all the destruction that Brock Lesnar has caused in WWE and wonders if Orton is scared of Lesnar. Orton says that he wanted to make a statement upon his return and that, while Lesnar may suplex him 20 times to get to Suplex City, it only takes one RKO to get to Viperville.  Y2J says he knows someone who is close to Lesnar and has a message he wants to relay to him. Jericho tells Orton that Lesnar thinks he’s a “stupid idiot.”

Jericho turns around to walk away, Orton spins him around and fakes an RKO out of nowhere. Then, Orton actually does hit Jericho with an RKO out of nowhere!

Shane McMahon & Daniel Bryan & Stephanie McMahon & Mick Foley is at ring side

RAW

Seth Rollins kicked off RAW

He talks about how all three former members of The Shield will be in the main event. Then he says he wants to talk about Roman Reigns despite being told not to.
He says Reigns' mistake embarrasses him because he is the one who brought Reigns into The Shield. Then he shows the tweet Reigns sent out apologizing for his violation.

Rollins says the right thing to do is take Reigns out of the Battleground main event.
This brings out Dean Ambrose

Ambrose says everyone makes mistakes even Rollins when he wears skinny jeans. Says the triple threat is still on at WWE Battleground Then AJ Styles comes out to join the party.

Styles says he should take Reigns' spot in the title match at Battleground. The crowd chants Yes over and over at his idea.
Ambrose says Reigns is still in the match, so Styles says they should make it a Fatal 4-Way. Then Cena comes out.

Cena gives us his resume and says he should get a shot at the title. Rollins obviously objects until Stephanie comes out.

Stephanie says she has a solution to their problem and says what happened with Reigns was an embarrassment, but having Ambrose as a champion is worse.
She books Cena vs. Rollins and Styles vs. Ambrose for tonight. If Cena or Styles win, they will be added to the main event of Battleground.

He gets very impassioned as he tells KO to grow a set and accept the match

Owens says stabbing him in the back was just a business move like he has always said it was. He eventually accepts the challenge for a match at Battleground.
Jericho says he agrees with Owens that Zayn is a bad friend. He runs Zayn down about listening to the fans and not following his example.
He gives everyone the gift of Jericho, so Zayn and Owens kick him in the face at the same time.


The Miz vs. Demon Kane for the IC Title
Demon Kane won via count out because Miz carried Maryse to the back as he thought she was hurt.

Alberto Del Rio walks away from sheamus.

Apollo Crews and Cesaro won


The New Day are shown making fun of The Wyatt Family by copying their ring gear and entrance.

They say nobody wants to hear The Wyatt Family's negative message anymore. Big E starts naming local landmarks and Kofi tells him Cena already did that earlier.
The Wyatts come out and Bray screams "It's a new day, yes it is." .
Wyatt ends by saying New Day Falls



Dean Ambrose vs. AJ Styles - if Styles wins he'll become apart of the WWE Championship at Battleground
W/ Seth Rollins on commentary



Dean Ambrose won

Anderson and Gallows came out to appear to cost Ambrose the win, but John Cena came out and got AJ  Styles distracted, and then Ambrose turns to look at Cena down from the attractions of the club and then gets pedigreed, then we see The Club attacking Cena, and then Rollins pedigreed Ambrose again, and then standing over Ambrose with the WWE Championship.

Will this be the scene at WWE Battleground?
