SmackDown Live

SmackDown opens with Renee Young welcoming WWE champion AJ Styles to the ring.
Styles talks about how he controls his own destiny, but a Fatal 5-Way is also very unpredictable. He talks about how he doesn't have to be involved in the decision to lose the title. He lists off things he would like to do to the other competitors in the match like putting them through tables or throwing them into the ring steps.
Baron Corbin comes out and says AJ may be a great athlete, but he isn't the same kind of fighter Corbin is. Before long, Kevin Owens joins them to add his two cents to the conversation. Corbin brags about beating KO last week.
Owens says Corbin's title shot was handed to him while he had to fight for it. Styles gets under Owens' skin by calling Sami Zayn a boil he had to have lanced off his back. Surprisingly, Shane McMahon comes out
Shane books Owens to battle Dolph Ziggler right now.

Kevin Owens vs. Dolph Ziggler

Kevin Owens won thanks from the distraction from Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens took advantage of the distraction and got the win.

Jinder Mahal comes out after the break to "expose" a secret of Bobby Roode's. He claims Roode voted to put himself in the top spot of the SmackDown Top 10, which isn't really a huge surprise. Jinder reminds us that neither he nor Randy Orton is in the top 10. This brings out the U.S. champ to offer a response.

Roode says not only could Jinder not make the top 10, but he can't win a fair fight. Mahal wants Roode to admit he thinks he is better than Orton and Roode says he never said that. Roode tells him to forget about Orton because this is between the two of them. Of course, Orton has to come out and issue his own statement.
Orton and Roode work together to take out Mahal, and then Randy tries to hit the RKO. Roode sees it coming and counters with a Glorious DDT. As his music starts to play, Jinder comes in and hits the Khalas.

Cena vows to win the Chamber match and make history against Brock Lesnar in the main event of Mania. Then The Miz's music hits and he comes out with Dallas and Axel. The Miz mocks Cena for thinking he will main event Mania again when this is the year of The Miz.
Miz reminds Cena that he is the founding father of Suplex City after Lesnar destroyed him a couple of years ago. Cena says Miz has no chance against Brock unless he gets food poisoning or misses his flight. Miz says he could beat Lesnar because he can use his brain, not brawn. He says he can cross lines Cena refuses to, and that's why he beat Reigns for the IC title.
Cena proposes he and Miz wrestle tonight to see who has to enter the Chamber first. As Miz talks about why that would be a dumb idea, Axel and Dallas attack Cena. Then Miz says he accepts the challenge and calls for a ref, but Kurt Angle comes out instead. The GM says Cena's idea for a match is good and sends a ref to the ring.

Angle reveals Ronda Rousey will be signing her WWE contract at Elimination Chamber. Then he talks about how Jordan will have to miss WrestleMania due to his neck injury. The crowd cheers and Angle gets a little upset. He says anyone who takes joy out of seeing a Superstar get injured should be ashamed of themselves. He is not wrong. As he asks for people to wish Jordan a speedy recover, Seth Rollins' music hits and he heads to the ring
.

Rollins says he feels for Jordan because he has been in the same position before. He knows WrestleMania moments are not guaranteed, and that's why he is out here. Angle suggests finding a new partner, but Rollins says he doesn't want another partner because he wants to be the top star again. He says he wants to face Lesnar and win the Universal Championship at WrestleMania, so he asks to be included in the match to find the last participant in the Chamber match.

Angle says it wouldn't be fair to the other four Superstars if Rollins was added to the match. Rollins pleads with him, but Angle says it's up to the fans. He asks the crowd if Seth should be included and everyone chants "Yes." Angle books Rollins into the match to make it a Fatal 5-Way.
