Welcome to our WrestlingINC.com Live SmackDown Viewing Party. Please enter your ongoing feedback of tonight's show in the 'Comments' section below.

Also be sure to join myself and Raj Giri for a Wrestling Inc Podcast after Smackdown at this link as we talk Chyna, Conor McGregor and much more!

- AJ Styles appears on MizTV, and is accused of setting up the attack on Roman Reigns by Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows. Miz makes fun of Styles' accent and emulates Will Smith's 'tell the truth' line. He makes out with Maryse and gets punched by Styles. They'll face off tonight.

Ryback vs. Kalisto

Ryback tosses Kalisto around for a couple of minutes to start off the match before we head to a commercial break. We come back to see Ryback superplexing Kalisto, but Kalisto makes Ryback hit the ringpost when he moves out of the corner. Kalisto hits a springboard attack to get ahead. Ryback gets a Meat Hook, but Kalisto reverses Shellshocked with a DDT for two. Ryback then reverses the SDS into the Shellshocked for the win.

Winner: Ryback via pinfall (Shellshocked)

- Baron Corbin attacks Dolph Ziggler before their planned match and hits an End of Days on the floor. When he's asked why he did it, he says it's because he can.

The Miz (w/ Maryse) vs. AJ Styles

Styles gains control of the Miz before grounding him and hitting a knee drop and applying a Muta Lock. Miz takes a break outside the ring, but makes it back in and drops Styles, only to be sent back outside with a spinning wheel kick from Styles. Miz hides behind Maryse and sucker punches Styles before slamming him into the barricade.

We come back from a commercial to see Miz booting Styles in the grill. Styles drops Miz across the top turnbuckle, but both men fall down with a double crossbody. Styles lands a nice pumphandle gutbuster and an Ushigoroshi for a two count. Miz manages to catch Styles and apply the Figure Four. Styles reverses the pressure, then applies the Calf Crusher, but Miz gets the the ropes.

Styles reverses a Skull Crushing Finale with a Pele, and Maryse grabs the belt and tries to leave. Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows show up and scare Miz back into the ring where he's met with a Phenomenal Forearm to finish the match.

Winner: AJ Styles via pinfall (Phenomenal Forearm)

- Sami Zayn and Dean Ambrose are being interviewed backstage and Ambrose says they'll make Jericho and Owens look like leftover spotted dick. Zayn and Ambrose are hilariously trying to come up with a team name and Ambrose calls Zayn's hat stupid.

Team BAD vs. Natalya & Paige

Nattie dominates Tamina before Naomi gets the tag, which also brings in Paige to a huge pop. They double team Naomi before a Natalya dropkick. Naomi avoids a Sharpshooter and is able to land a leg drop for two. Natalya is quickly isolated and attacked by Team BAD. Paige gets the tag and takes out Naomi and Tamina, clocking Naomi with a big knee. Naomi eats a RamPaige and applies a PTO while Natalya locks a Sharpshooter on Tamina.

Winners: Paige & Natalya via submission (PTO)

- Luka Gallows and Karl Anderson say they'll debut next week on Raw against the Usos.

Special Ref: Goldust
R-Truth vs. Fandango

Fandango lands a hiptoss and shakes his crotch at R-Truth. Truth lands one and a dance battle with all three being involved. Truth hits a Lie Detector out of nowhere for the pin.

Winner: R-Truth via pinfall (Lie Detector)

Truth and Goldust dance after the match. I dunno.

- Enzo and Cass come out for a promo, but are interrupted by the Vaudevillains. The Vaudevillains call Enzo an egomaniac and a rodent with mange, which Enzo admits he doesn't understand. The Vaudevillains did good, but this was probably Enzo's weakest main roster promo. That's not an insult, though.

Sami Zayn & Dean Ambrose vs. Chris Jericho and Kevin Owens

Jericho and Zayn start out, but Zayn armdrags Jericho repeatedly and tags Ambrose, who almost gets Dirty Deeds. Jericho rolls out of the ring as we go to our last commercial. We come back to see Ambrose getting beaten down before Zayn makes the tag and dominates Jericho, then jumps onto Kevin Owens outside the ring.

Zayn is clotheslined outside the ring and then is isolated inside the ring, which leads to a Lionsault for a two count. Jericho slaps Zayn and gets a Blue Thunder Bomb for his troubles, which allows Ambrose to tag in and clean house. Ambrose sends Owens tumbling from the ring, and follows up with a suicide dive. Ambrose ends up getting caught up on the ropes when Jericho clocks him and Owens scores the pin!

Winners: Chris Jericho & Kevin Owens via pinfall

Jericho catches Kevin Owens in midair with a hug, probably because he uses DDPYoga.com/WrestlingInc.
