Wesley Blake & Steve Cutler return to WWE TV on SmackDown

Posted on by Bryan Rose

Wesley Blake and Steve Cutler have re-emerged, aiding King Corbin in his win tonight on SmackDown against Murphy.

Both men were identified when they came out to help Corbin, who lost last week against Murphy on SmackDown following interference from the Mysterio family. Corbin challenged Murphy to another match, saying that next time he would be prepared.

During tonight’s match, the two sides mostly stayed apart until the finish. Murphy had Corbin in the corner when Corbin signaled to Cutler and Blake. They promptly attacked both Dominik and Rey Mysterio. Murphy exited the ring to help, but when he came back to the ring walked into the End of Days for the win.

Cutler and Blake had originally been called up from NXT along with Jaxson Ryker back in April. However, all three men were pulled from television in May after Ryker voiced support for President Donald Trump during the George Floyd protests, which led to backlash backstage from several WWE stars.

A rematch between Murphy and King Corbin has been announced for next week’s SmackDown.

Commercials airing during football games airing on Fox today confirmed the match would take place next week.On Friday, Corbin wrestled Murphy in an impromptu match after Corbin’s original opponent, Otis, was taken out by Jey Uso with a steel chair. Corbin later confronted Murphy, leading to their match.

The Mysterio family constantly interfered in the match, helping Murphy and impeding Corbin every time he was in control. The finish had Murphy pin Corbin after Dominik Mysterio took Corbin’s foot off the bottom rope following a knee strike by Murphy.

After the match, a livid Corbin told Murphy he wanted another match, and promised that he would be prepared the next time he and Murphy faced one another.

The commercial also said that Kevin Owens would continue his feud with Roman Reigns. This follows an angle that took place at the end of SmackDown where Owens laid out Jey Uso, challenging his cousin Roman Reigns to do something about it.
