This mystery person was quickly revealed to be Legend who ragdolled Bliss around while in the sleeper hold. This led to Flair getting distracted long enough for Jax to attack her from behind and followed it with an Annihilator for the pinfall victory. Following the match, Jax and Legend celebrated together at ringside revealing a new alliance between the two.

Drew McIntyre Attacks Ref & Gets Suspended

Friday’s WWE SmackDown show also featured Drew McIntyre getting suspended by SmackDown GM Nick Aldis.

Near the end of the singles match between Cody Rhodes and Aleister Black, both men hit each other at the same time with big boots resulting in them both falling down and the referee starting the count. This led to McIntyre running out from the crowd and laid out the referee with a Claymore Kick resulting in the match being thrown out. McIntyre and Rhodes then brawled leading to Black joining in to help out McIntyre. After some more brawling, Damian Priest ran out to save Rhodes and joined in on the brawl. This led to Zelina getting involved and tried to jump on Priest’s back only for Priest to toss her off. This provided an opening for Black to gouge Priest’s injured eye and give him and Zelina the opening to run away to safety.
