WWE taped Thursday’s episode of SmackDown from the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, after RAW. This week’s show will also feature footage from WrestleMania week in Santa Clara.
– Jerry Lawler got a big pop when they did the switch to SmackDown but fans are leaving the arena.
– Jimmy Uso defeated Cesaro, Big E and Fernando in a Fatal 4 Way match.
– AJ Lee came out and cut a promo on The Bella Twins, comparing them to the Kardashians. Paige came out and said she and AJ Made up. The Bella Twins interrupted and talked some trash. This was said to be a good segment.
– Daniel Bryan, John Cena, Mark Henry and Roman Reigns vs. Bray Wyatt, Seth Rollins, Kane and Big Show is the main event. For their entrances, Cena and Reigns actually got booed more than they did on RAW compared to what’s left of the crowd but the boos didn’t last. Bryan ended up getting the win for his team and they all celebrated. SmackDown ended with Bryan’s music playing and a few “yes!” chants.
The rest of WWE SmackDown will feature “live” cut-ins from AXXESS and lots of WrestleMania 31 video packages.
