Big E was ready for tonight, not only because he was competing in the Fatal 4-Way for an opportunity at the Universal Championship, but because it was his good friend and tag team partner Xavier Woods’ birthday. Cake in hand, Big E was ready to greet Woods as he arrived at WWE ThunderDome at Amway Center. Instead, he walked right into an ambush by Sheamus. The Celtic Warrior clobbered Big E with a Brogue Kick into a garage door, then capped off the assault by driving him through the windshield of a car with White Noise.

Can “The Golden Role Models” regain their titles from the hard-hitting duo of Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler? Catch WWE action on WWE Network, FOX, USA Network, Sony India and more.

Shayna Baszler & Nia Jax were simply devastating in their first defense of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles. The Boss and the SmackDown Women’s Champion threw everything they had at the champions, but there was no overcoming them. The challengers’ fate was sealed when Banks attempted to crush Baszler with double knees in the corner but instead connected with the ring post.

That gave The Queen of Spades a target to pick apart, weakening The Boss. However, The Irresistible Force picked up the fall in her SmackDown debut, crushing Banks & Bayley with a cross-body off the top rope to get the three-count and retain the titles.

The friendship between Bayley and Sasha Banks comes to a painful end at the hands of the SmackDown Women’s Champion. Catch WWE action on WWE Network, FOX, USA Network, Sony India and more.

After the match, Banks was clearly in pain, but she refused medical attention when trainers and EMTs arrived to help her. It looked as though Bayley was going to help her best friend out of the ring, but she instead unleashed a shocking attack on The Boss. The SmackDown Women’s Champion slammed Banks’ leg into the steel ring steps before stomping on it and brutally beating The Boss around ringside. As Bayley wrapped a steel chair around her leg, Banks tried to fight back, only for Bayley to knock her out with a knee to the head. The brutality did not end there, as Bayley wrapped the steel chair around Banks’ neck, then jumped off the second rope, stomping the chair as a sadistic smile crossed her face.

Jeff Hardy may have the Intercontinental Championship, but Sami Zayn and AJ Styles are both staking their claim to the title. Catch WWE action on WWE Network, FOX, USA Network, Sony India and more.

Although Jeff Hardy won the Intercontinental Championship two weeks ago from AJ Styles, the title picture is anything but clear. Sami Zayn once again arrived on SmackDown with his own title, claiming to be the true champion, while Styles showed up saying he is the uncrowned champion. It didn’t take long for physicality to ensue, as Hardy dropped Styles with a Twist of Fate, but he found himself on the receiving end of a Helluva Kick from Zayn.

During a post-match interview in the ring, a fired-up and battle-torn Uso told his cousin that he’s not the only one making the family proud, and he let out a celebratory “Woo!” as SmackDown concluded.
