Smackdown LIVE (2)

WWE Smackdown LIVE took place this week from the Huntington Center in Toledo, Ohio. Here’s all the action that went down last night.

Asuka interrupted Carmella and James Ellsworth’s reunion

It’s official: Carmella not only has a win over Asuka, she’s also still the Smackdown LIVE Women’s champion thanks to a timely assist from James Ellsworth at Money In The Bank. After having provided a bizarre distraction at Sunday’s event, Carmella decided to celebrate her victory and Ellsworth’s return. Invoking the wrath of Asuka when he decided to read out a list of challengers that the love of his life was better than, Ellsworth soon got a gut kick from the Empress of Tomorrow when he attempted to intimidate her.

Carmella would have the last laugh however, as Ellsworth’s distraction gave the Staten Island princess the gap she needed to clock Asuka with a superkick.

Becky Lynch def. Billie Kay

When you’re fighting the IIconics, you’re taking on not one but two members of that team at any given time. That’s the situation that Becky Lynch found herself in, as her bout with Billie Kay saw some ringside meddling by Peyton Royce. Removing her from the equation with a crossbody from the ring apron, Lynch made quick work of Billie Kay with a Dis-Arm-Her submission that had the IIlconic tapping out.

There’s a new team on the Smackdown LIVE roster and buddy they are crazy. SAnitY finally arrived to team blue, and with a debut bout against The Usos scheduled, it would appear that Eric Young, Killian Dain and Alexander Wolfe were thrown into the deep end. Deciding to take the initiative after having been subjected to an Uso sermon, SAnitY ambushed the veterans and left them battered in the middle of the ring.
