Prior to Tuesday night’s WWE SmackDown tapings, WWE held two dark matches. This is a rare move by WWE as they’ve never done this in the past.
CM Punk defeated Chris Jericho in an Anything Goes match during the first dark match.
The second match featured Randy Orton, Sheamus and John Cena defeating Lord Tensai, Kane and Dolph Ziggler.
Dean Ambrose also defeated a local “jobber”.
