The WWE SmackDown of this week took place at the Ford Center in Evansville, Indiana, and had Samoa Joe and The Miz as the main protagonists. Randy Orton opened the show to explain why he attacked Jeff Hardy. The 'Viper' blamed the fans for not supporting him, as it was they who did not recognize his career.
On the other hand, Becky Lynch was able to defeat the champion Carmella with an 'armbar'. This way, the Irish woman will have her opportunity for the title at SummerSlam. Another confirmed fight for the next event was Samoa Joe against AJ Styles.
The 'Destroyer' put his signature on the contract after putting the champion to 'sleep'. Meanwhile, the closing of WWE SmackDown was in charge of The Miz, who tricked Daniel Bryan and threw a toy baby at him to end up attacking him.
