-Happy 11th Anniversary to my wife! Let’s get to it!

-Megan Morant welcomes us to the show and she is joined by Scott Stanford. They jump right to The Bloodline hitting The Triple Powerbomb through the announce table on Randy Orton with Cody being forced to watch.

-Blair Davenport, Andrade, and LDF are out guests this week!

-To the video as Naomi gets a win over Blair Davenport. Later Blair offers a handshake in the back and then decks Namoi from behind after Piper and Chelsea make a cameo appearance.

-Byron Saxton is backstage with Blair Davenport and notes she fell short in her match tonight. She fires back that Saxton is asking stupid questions. She says everyone loves Naomi, but perhaps she has made a few friends as well.

-Andrade and LDF still to come!

-Peacock commercials!

-SummerSlam! Cleveland! Really hoping I will be there.

-Bad Blood returns in Oct. To be continued…

-To the video as Tiffany Stratton gets to celebrate winning Money in the Bank. The crowd is getting behind her as they chant “Tiffy Time.” Bayley is out and tells Tiffany if she cashes in on her, she will be the first woman to lose. Here’s Nia Jax and we get a two on one attack on Bayley. Michin makes the save with a kendo stick!

-Later, Nia gets a win over Michin. Match seemed solid and the crowd was into it. Nia gets another win on her way to SummerSlam. After the match, Bayley attacks, but Stratton blasts her with the briefcase. Tiff nearly cashes in, but Nia cuts her off.

-Byron Saxton is backstage with Andrade and tells him that he will face Carmelo Hayes next week on SmackDown. Andrade says he understands Carmelo, but he needs to be smarter with his business. Next week he will show him why people say he was the MVP. I was working hard there to understand what Andrade was saying.

-LDF up next!

-Peacock commercials!

-RAW: Rhea Ripley kicks off the show. Also, Drew McIntyre returns. Also, also, Priest and GUNTHER come face-to-face.

-To the video as LDF took on Apollo Crews and Baron Corbin. Air Corbin was fun! I know Corbin had a good run in NXT and I am curious to see if he can find it on the main roster. Hearing the fans cheer for Corbin is kind of wild. Corbin was at his best during his BUM Corbin phase. LDF get the win, which was the right call as they are the established team.

-Byron is backstage with LDF and Lopez sets Byron straight as he continues to say stupid things. Santos is there to protect them, and they protect him because they are La Familia. Angel has Byron count to four to explain the numbers advantage they have. They are off to celebrate a victory and Byron is not invited.

-To the video as DIY successfully defended their Tag Titles against A-Town Down Under. Waller and Theory continue to have issues. I like that DIY is using The Shatter Machine now as a nod to their rivalry with The Revival.

-After the match, Jacob Fatu hits the ring and destroys anything that moves. Fatu is awesome! Solo wants a WWE Title Match at SummerSlam and Cody is down for it. So, it unofficially official. The Bloodline circle Cody, but here’s Randy Orton. He gets in a few shots, but as mentioned, takes the Triple Powerbomb as Cody is forced to watch. Then Solo hits Cody with The Samoan Spike.

-Next week on SmackDown: Logan Paul!

-Megan wraps things up and we are out this week. Thanks for reading!
