SmackDown tonight is currently set to geature two big one on one matches as LA Knight will take on Grayson Waller and Carlito goes head to head against Bobby Lashley.
Also promoted for tonight is Bayley addressing the future of Damage CTRL after Kairi Sane’s surprise return at Crown Jewel.
It should be interesting to see how things play out on tonight’s show.
SmackDown kicks off with Kevin Owens making his way out to the ring in his best cutoff shirt and neck tie combo as he will be a special guest commentator in Corey Graves’ place (congratulations to Corey Graves and Carmella).
The LWO make their way out to the ring as replay shows the ending to Rey Mysterio’s US title match against Logan Paul at Crown Jewel. Mysterio welcomes the crowd to SmackDown and then says that last Saturday Logan Paul stole the US Championship from him. Msterio says paul could not have beaten him without the use of brass knuckles and without them Mysterio would still be champion. Mysterio demands a rematch which draws Carlito out to the ring.
Carlito says nobody wants Mysterio to be champion more than him. Carlito says Mysterio is blaming the wrong person, Mysterio should blame the person who left the brass knuckles on the apron, Santos Escobar. Carlito and Escobar begin to scream back and fourth at each other as the rest of the LWO holds them back. This confrontation causes Escobar to leave the ring and walk to the back alone. Mysterio and Zelina Vega follow after Escobar while Joaquin Wilde and Cruz Del Toro stay with Carlito.
Bobby Lashley makes his way out to the ring for our opening match up next.

Bayley makes her way out to the ring by herself as the future of Damage CTRL is unknown. Bayley says she has had a vision for Iyo Sky and Dakota Kai since the begining of Damage CTRL. Baykey has said everything she has envisioned has come to fruition and that Crown Jewel should’ve been Damage CTRL’s moment and Bayley calls out Iyo Sky to come out to the ring so they can talk about this like adults.
Iyo Sky makes her way out with Dakota Kai and Kairi Sane by her side. Bayley asks Sky why Sane is even out here and says that she had a plan for Crown Jewel.

Kairi Sane speaks up and says she respects Bayley as the leader of Damage CTRL and she forgives her. Sane holds her arms out and Bayley says she doesn’t hug anymore but eventually all of Damage CTRL celebrate with a group hug that is interrupted by Bianca Belair coming out.

Asuka takes the mic and calls out Sky and Sane where Asuka politely informs them that they are not ready for Asuka.

LA Knight refuses to go to the back of the line and that he is not done with the Bloodline until he owns the championship. LA Knight is cut off by Grayson Waller coming out to the ring.
Waller says LA Knight is embarrassing himself. Waller says that LA Knight knows the truth, he knows that he is simply not the guy. LA Knight calls Waller Kangroo Jackass which got a genuine laugh out of me. Waller asks LA Knight if he honestly believes he belongs in the ring with Reigns. LA Knight says Waller looks like he isn’t allowed within 50 feet of a school and that instead of wondering if LA Knight belongs in the ring with Roman Reigns he should worry about being in the ring with a very pissed off La Knight. LA Knight hits Waller in the head with the mic and knocks him out of the ring before leading the crowd in the LA Knight chant.
