Tag: team hell no

Ahead of challenging The Bludgeon Brothers at Extreme Rules on July 15, Daniel Bryan & Kane teamed together on SmackDown last night.

They defeated The Usos in the show’s main event, which had a stipulation where The Usos would have been added to the SmackDown Tag Team title match at Extreme Rules if they won. The Bludgeon Brothers then came out to the stage and had a staredown with Bryan and Kane to close the show.

James Ellsworth bailed on his match with Asuka after being slapped and hit with a spinning back fist, but Carmella got the better of Asuka by pushing her into the barricade. Asuka will face Ellsworth in a lumberjack match next week.

Also on SmackDown, AJ Styles was put in the Accolade by Rusev after defeating Aiden English, Jeff Hardy retained against The Miz in an open challenge and will defend his United States title against Shinsuke Nakamura at Extreme Rules, Becky Lynch took on Peyton Royce, and SAnitY ruined The New Day’s “First Annual Third of July Pancake Eating contest.”
