WWE SmackDown, Charleston, West Virginia
The commentators are Michael Cole and Corey Graves. The French-language commentators are Christophe Agius and Nadir Mohammedi.
– Tonight it’s WWE SmackDown, the blue brand show kicks off with a trailer spotlighting Danhausen. Indeed, this blue brand is a Danhausen-themed Halloween special. This Friday in Charleston, Cody Rhodes opens the episode. Just over a week before his match against his rival Randy Orton, The American Nightmare speaks.
– It’s Cody Rhodes’s first Last Man Standing match in WWE. The American Nightmare does not pull punches, apologizing to the Orton family: he will not go easy on them on November 7. The former Undisputed Champion talks notably about his WrestleMania 42 injury from the punt kick. Cody promises: he will deliver that same punt kick in Saudi Arabia. After this Last Man Standing, Cody Rhodes will target the SmackDown World Championship!
– Alongside Chelsea Green in the backstage area, Tiffany Stratton talks about her attempted cash-in this Monday against Liv Morgan. Posed as Nikki Bella, the WWE Champion prepares for a title defense against the former face of the Divas.
WWE Women’s Championship Match
Nikki Bella vs Chelsea Green (c)
The stakes are high: the winner will walk away with the SmackDown Women’s Championship and secure a spot at Crown Jewel. During the match, Nikki did not hesitate to taunt her rival by using a Matt Cardona maneuver. The Canadian withstands the onslaught from the Hall of Famer. And thanks to a clever roll-up, the champion retains her title!
Winner: Chelsea Green
– After the match, Liv Morgan rushed in to taunt her upcoming opponent. Booed by the Charleston crowd, the RAW Women’s Champion states that they are not in the same league. According to Liv, Chelsea is an impostor. If Green were fired a third time, no one would notice. But Tiffany Stratton arrived to threaten the leader of Judgment Day with her briefcase. Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez came to the rescue to attack Tiffy, and the faction gained the upper hand, before Io Sky arrived to balance the scales… Perhaps a preview of WarGames?
– Sami Zayn is interviewed by Cathy Kelley about Trick Williams. The Canadian continues to insist that he’s being disrespected. The champion continues his Monday-night praise, patting himself on the back. Trick Williams and Roman Reigns are warned: Sami will not back down!
– One week after her crushing victory over Giulia, Blake Monroe speaks about what’s next. The Englishwoman is deemed “World Championship Material” and targets Chelsea Green’s title. Blake Monroe is then confronted by veteran Paige.
AAA Cruiserweight Championship Match
Ricky Saints vs Rey Fenix (c)
This is the third time these two superstars have faced off on SmackDown. The challenger was quickly overwhelmed, before gaining the advantage outside the ring. After a grueling contest, Rey Fenix lands his magnificent Mexican Mustle Buster to retain the title against Ricky Saints! The reign continues!
Winner: Rey Fenix
– The WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions B-Fab and Michin react to their victory from last week. Jade Cargill and her faction were then confronted by Fatal Influence.
– Accompanied by Lil Yachty, Trick Williams answers the threats from Sami Zayn. The United States Champion has already beaten his rival, and he plans to repeat it tonight. The rapper noticed a secret room where Danhausen was conducting experiments. The demon resurrected the Gingerbread Man!
Single Match
Jade Cargill vs Tatum Paxley
It’s Jade Cargill’s fault that Tatum Paxley lost the tag titles last week. This Friday, the Alexa Bliss ally wasted no time attacking her evening opponent during her entrance. Despite the size difference, the former NXT Champion did not back down, far from it. B-Fab and Michin interfered to disrupt Tatum Paxley. And these interferences, despite Alexa Bliss’s support, were enough for Jade Cargill to win the match. “The Storm” delivered her Jaded for the victory.
Winner: Jade Cargill
– Damian Priest complains that Trick Williams has a chance at the world title, and not him. For him, R-Truth is the cause of the problem. Nathan Frazer and Axiom faced the former world champion: Damian Priest will have to face one of the two wrestlers soon.
– Danhausen arrived in Charleston to reveal his experiment. But Gunther showed up to correct Danhausen. The Ring General is fed up and pummeled his rival. Minihausens appeared to attack the Austrian, but they were no match. Gunther hurled pumpkins at them. Then Danhausen summoned none other than the Demon Finn Balor. The fans cheered as Balor’s alter ego attacked Gunther: the Ring General was powerless! Finn even climbed a ladder to deliver his Coup de Grâce through the table, onto Gunther!
