Image Credit: WWE
-Welcome to this week’s episode of The WWE SmackDown LowDown! Happy Easter to those of you who celebrate! Let’s get to it!
-They start us off with an aerial shot of The Linc in Philadelphia and it seems WWE is going to luck out with decent weather next weekend. A little cool, but it seems it will be dry.
-Megan Morant welcomes us to the show and she is joined by Scott Stanford.
-They jump to the headlines: The final 2 spots were filled in the 6 Pack Tag Team Ladder Match! Jade Cargill made an impact on her first official night as a member of SmackDown.
-To the video as Santos Escobar and Prison Dom bond over their hatred of Rey Mysterio. Rey and the LWO hit the ring and they agree to a Tag Match at WrestleMania with Rey and Dragon Lee taking on Prison Dom and Santos. That’s certainly a way to go, but I was hoping for an 8 8-man tag with people flying all over the place to pop the crowd in Philly. Everyone brawls and Dragon Lee goes flying off the top to the floor to pop the crowd.
-Next week on SmackDown it’s Zelina Vega vs. Elektra Lopez.
-Kayla Braxton is backstage with the LWO. Rey says it was a hard decision to make as to who would be his partner, but he knew Dragon wanted to be part of the group. Dragon thanks Rey for the chance and won’t disappoint their people. Zelina notes that Elektra has a hard head and it was about time she gave Zelina 2.0 a taste of her own medicine.
-A-Town Down Under and LA Knight still to come!
-Peacock commercials!
-Meek Mill WrestleMania XL commercial!
-To the video as Kevin Owens and Randy Orton took on Pretty Deadly. Logan Paul decks KO with the brass knuckles and Pretty Deadly get a pin on KO. I’m cool with that as Pretty Deadly need to win everyone now and then and having a win over KO will let them brag forever and KO is protected due to the Paul interference. Orton gives chase to Paul in the back, but he gets into a sports car and escapes.
-To the video as A-Town Down Under defeat The Street Profits to qualify for the Tag Team Ladder Match thanks to Karrion Kross distracting The Profits via an attack on Lashley and B-Fab in the back.
-To the video as the final spot is claimed by New Catch Republic as they beat Angel and Humberto. It will be chaotic, but the ladder match should be a lot of fun and a car crash match like that has been missed at WrestleMania.
-Byron Saxton is backstage with A-Town Down Under! They are quite excited to be heading to WrestleMania. They don’t care how they won and can’t control that the Profits got what they deserved for saying mean things about people. Next week on SmackDown it’s A-Town Down Under vs. The New Catch Republic. Theory says they are going to the top and Waller says there is some champagne left over in Lashley’s room after the attack.
-LA Knight up next!
-Peacock commercials!
-To the video as LA Knight hides as a security guard and attacks AJ Styles. He tries to use a chair, but AJ bails. Knight tells AJ to run, hide, but at the end of the day, AJ will know whose game it is. YEAH!
-Byron Saxton is backstage with a pacing, LA Knight. He says he thought about not showing up, but decided he would and decided he would play a little with AJ. He claims that AJ stands for Always Jealous and tells AJ to quit crying. AJ can’t lace his boots and doesn’t care that AJ was WWE Champion five years ago. He calls AJ a gymnastic jerk and works in a Flat Earth burn. Bryan Danielson is smiling somewhere! YEAH!
-To the video as Bianca Belair gets a win over Dakota with the KOD. The Kabuki Warriors hit the ring, which brings Naomi down, but she and Bianca are still outnumbered. Here comes Jade Cargill and she wrecks shop and looks like an absolute star.
-The match we all assumed is now official: Damage CTRL vs. Naomi, Bianca, and Jade!
-The Andre Battle Royal (ARMBAR) returns next week on Friday. We also get Jey Uso vs. Solo Sikoa, with Solo’s job being to take out Jey before he can get to Mania.
-As a note, I will have live Hall of Fame coverage next Friday at 10 PM. It’s always a fun time.
-Megan closes the show and we are out this week. Thanks for reading!
