WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: BIG MAIN EVENT ANNOUNCED FOR NEXT WEEK, A CONTRACT SIGNING, A TAG TEAM RETURNS TO ACTION, IC TITLE MATCH, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2016-09-20 21:57:00

Tonight, Dean Ambrose faces John Cena.  We will also see Dolph Ziggler get a shot at the Intercontinental Title against Miz.

We are in Birmingham, Alabama and your announcers are Mauro Ranallo, John Layfield, and David Otunga.

Daniel Bryan is in the ring and there is a carpet and table so that means it is contract signing time.

Daniel says in less than three weeks, the Smackdown Women's Title will be defended for the first time at No Mercy.  Tonight, we will have the first ever Smackdown Women's Contract signing.  Daniel says things will stay civil, and he tells the crowd not to boo that.  He says it is a new era and that is how it will be.

Daniel brings out the Women's Champion, Becky Lynch, first.

Daniel reminds Becky things will stay civil.

Becky says she has her thick skin on.

Daniel brings out the number one contender, Alexa Bliss.

Alexa asks Becky if she meant thick skin, but she has the skin of a rhino so she might want to use some lotion.

Becky tells Alexa while she is getting ready for a pageant, she is getting ready for a fight.

Alexa says Becky does not fit the role of champion, but Becky disagrees.  Alexa says your role in life is not to be a champion.  Your role is to succeed, but fail miserably.  Then you go back to doing what you do best, be the lovable Superstar that doesn't quite get it.  You know that and everyone knows that.  You are going to lose the title because you were not born to be a champion, but you were born to be a loser.

Becky says she was born to live in Dublin and have a job that barely had her meet her ends.  She says she watched too much TV and she heard that if you wanted to be something you can achieve it.  Becky says she wanted to be a champion.  She was not born to be a champion, but she has poured her heart and soul into this so she could hold the title over her head.  Becky says she wants this more than Alexa and she will rip off Alexa's head to keep it.  She was not born a champion, but she is a champion.

Alexa says that was so inspirational.  Alexa says between the two of them, Becky was destined for second place because Alexa says she was born to be a champion.  She says she will expose Becky as a one hit wonder. 

Alexa takes the title belt and hits Becky with it and then she signs the contract, throws the contract at Becky, and pushes the table onto Becky.

Becky gets up and she attacks Alexa as Alexa walks up the ramp.  Alexa goes to the back.

Becky goes back into the ring to sign the contract.

The Usos walk in the back and we see their opponents, American Alpha walking in the back as well.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Daniel Bryan is walking in the back.  Miz stops by with Maryse and Miz says they have a problem.  Daniel says it cannot be about the contract.  Miz says it is about his title match.  Bryan says they can cancel the match and Miz like the idea.  Daniel says if the match is cancelled, they can cancel the contract.  Daniel asks Miz if he didn't read the contract.  Daniel tells Miz they renegotiated the contract and Miz defends the title.  No match tonight and no contract.  He says that will make it hard for Miz to do what Daniel cannot do anymore.  Daniel asks Miz if they have a problem and Miz says no.

Chad Gable and Jason Jordan are shown in the back earlier and Chad talks about how the Usos tried to end his career, but he is still standing. Jason says the Usos made it personal.  Chad says tonight is the start of their journey to become the tag team champions.
