WWE Smackdown Results - August 9, 2016

Tonight’s WWE SmackDown opens with Randy Orton backstage. 


Charly Caruso mentions the main event of Randy Orton against Alberto Del Rio tonight and asks how he’s staying focused on Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam. Orton says Lesnar may be big and bad but it only takes one RKO to get to Viperville. Del Rio appears and says Viperville sounds like a joke, something like Disneyland. Orton offers Del Rio a VIP experience but warns him that it’s a bumpy ride with a helluva landing. Del Rio threatens to break Orton’s arm and walks off.


Bray Wyatt makes his way to the ring as the arena lights up. Erick Rowan is with him. Wyatt wants to make something clear – he did not fall to Ziggler last week, he was a victim. Wyatt says Ziggler ran him into the steel and everything went black for him after that. Wyatt says he is a god and no matter how Ziggler tries, he can never kill a god. Wyatt says there is no red or blue, this is him against the whole damn world.


The music interrupts and out comes WWE Champion Dean Ambrose to a pop. Ambrose says it sounds like Wyatt is being a big baby. Ambrose says SmackDown belongs to the people and the WWE Champion, not Wyatt. Wyatt laughs at him and challenges him to come in the ring. Ziggler comes out. He stops by Ambrose but quickly rushes the ring and gets beat down. Ambrose makes the save but also gets beat down. Ambrose comes back and sends Rowan over the top.


Bray grabs Ambrose for Sister Abigail but Ziggler tries to make the save with a superkick, hitting Ambrose instead. Ziggler freaks out at the accident and knocks Rowan off the apron but eats Sister Abigail.

Ambrose is backstage with Ziggler. Ambrose isn’t sure that the superkick wasn’t an accident. They come face to face when Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon get in between. They announce a tag team match Dean Ambrose and Dolph Ziggler vs Bray Wyatt and Erick Rowan for later tonight.

The referee calls for a towel to cover her up and she leaves the ring. Fans boo. It’s announced that Eva cannot compete due to a wardrobe malfunction and Becky gets upset.

 

Becky says there’s no way she’s going to the back two weeks in a row without competing. Becky issues an open challenge and out comes Alexa Bliss with a mic. Bliss cuts a promo on how she’s more than just a pretty face, she’s the hottest star on SmackDown. She can’t think of a better debut than knocking off SmackDown’s first female Draft pick.
