After an exciting Season Premiere, WWE SmackDown returned with a focus on the Bad Blood pay-per-view. LA Knight defended his title, Naomi and Bayley clashed over a championship opportunity, and Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes had a legendary face-to-face confrontation. The night concluded with a chaotic main event between The Bloodline and Kevin Owens and The Street Profits.
After an exhilarating Season Premiere last week, WWE SmackDown came from Sacramento, CA on the road to Bad Blood . LA Knight kicked off the show with a successful title defense over Andrade, who reignited his long-running rivalry with Carmelo Hayes afterward in a backstage brawl. Confusion reigned as Naomi and Bayley both claimed victory over Nia Jax and Tiffany Stratton, resulting in the two being placed in a Number One Contenders match on next week's show.
It is not an exaggeration to say this is the kind of segment that will be spoken about for years. Roman Reigns shows an emotional range that ranks among his best work to date. This is not hyperbole. This is exceptional. Cody Rhodes proved every bit his equal. Bragging without bravado, Cody had no problem letting Reigns know whose year it has been so far and that Georgia is his home. WWE's storytelling is continuing to plateau. It's incredible to see.
Jacob Fatu and The Bloodline A dominant night for Jacob Fatu and The Bloodline Jacob Fatu was let off the leash in the absence of Solo Sikoa on this week's SmackDown. Alongside his Bloodline brethren, Tonga Loa and Tama Tonga, Fatu took DIY out of action before starring in the Main Event against Kevin Owens and The Street Profits. His agility is mesmerizing, and he has the rare quality of seeming authentically unhinged.
