Smackdown Main Event Change
The advertised main event for this week’s WWE Smackdown was a 6-man tag team match showcasing the Wyatt Family against Big Show and WWE Tag Team Champions, The Usos. However, it seems they have changed plans at the last minute, as Big Show actually teamed up with Los Matadores at the television taping.
The actual Smackdown main event will now be Roman Reigns vs. Rusev.
NXT Stand-Outs Work Dark Matches
Several of the NXT stand-outs worked dark matches prior to tonight’s WWE Smackdown taping in Biloxi, MS. Although we have been reporting that Sami Zayn, Adrian Neville and The Ascension would all be touring with the main roster, Tyler Breeze was also in action. Breeze lost a singles match to Kofi Kingston prior to the live edition of Main Event, while Zayn and Neville teamed up to defeat The Ascension before Smackdown. The matches were said to be quite good, with both of the babyfaces getting great reactions from the crowd after their victory.
