The deal began on October 4, 2019, when the first episode of SmackDown aired on FOX. The blue brand boomed in the last few years, as the record-breaking reigns of Roman Reigns and Gunther significantly helped the show. The return of The Rock and the rise and fall of the Bloodline saga are some of the most important moments in recent history, all of which took place during this era.
SmackDown is set to head to the USA Network starting next week. The show is expected to be spectacular. Carmelo Hayes and Andrade will settle the score in the fifth match of their highly acclaimed series. Meanwhile, Kevin Owens will have to find a partner as he faces Austin Theory and Grayson Waller in a tag team match.
WWE has made it official that Cody Rhodes is going to be defending his Undisputed Championship against Solo Sikoa in a Steel Cage. Additionally, the thunderous return of The Tribal Chief is expected to kickoff the Friday nights on the USA with a bang.
What transpired on the last episode of SmackDown on FOX?
This week’s SmackDown was the end of an era. In the opening segment for the show, Solo Sikoa issued a challenge to Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed Championship. It was about to turn into a brawl after #DIY and Street Profits joined the fray.
It also featured a stellar match between Tiffany Stratton and Bayley, followed by a hilarious upset to Giovanni Vinci. Moreover, LA Knight‘s next challenger for his United States Championship was seemingly confirmed. Both Carmelo Hayes and Andrade challenged The Megastar for the title.
In the main event of the show, #DIY and Street Profits teamed up to take on the vicious Bloodline. The teams went on to destroy each other in a hard-hitting match. However, all the efforts by the opps went in vain against Solo Sikoa and his crooked Samoans. To mark the end of the FOX era, the new Bloodline stood tall after defeating their rivals.
