WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: RANDY HAS A NEW FRIEND?, RUSEV DAY, THE ABUSE OF POWER AGAINST OWENS AND ZAYN CONTINUES, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2017-12-05 21:57:00

We are in San Diego, California and your announcers are Tom Phillips, Corey Graves, and Byron Saxton.

Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn make their way to the ring and we see the stipulation that Shane McMahon added to the Randy Orton versus Kevin Owens match.  Then we see what happened when Kevin's friend Sami attacked Randy Orton.

Kevin welcomes everyone to the Sami and Kevin Show.  Sami reminds everyone it is the Kevin and Sami Show.

Kevin says when you are as great an athlete as he is and Sami is one too, you never stop learning.  When you are part of a McMahon family vendetta, they will stop at nothing to get their pound of flesh.  He says, just ask Daniel Bryan.  Sami brings up Bret Hart.  Kevin brings up Steve Austin.  Sami says you can just ask them.

Kevin says they are better than any of the people they just mentioned, and Sami adds 'combined'.  Kevin says that is why they are the latest victims of the McMahon family wrath.  That is why the man who had the best interests of the WWE at heart tried to use his vessel of destruction Randy Orton to finish him off.  Sami says that Shane now uses Randy as the person who does his dirty work because Stephanie used him as well.

Kevin says they have had to fight to earn everything in WWE.  Shane cannot get over the fact that they humiliated Shane at Hell in a Cell.  Shane cannot get over his failure at Survivor Series.

Sami says that Shane's plan didn't even work last week.  Kevin says he saw Shane's song and dance and he made it a No Disqualification Match with Sami banned from ringside.  Kevin says he had to beat up Randy so bad that he would not be an option for Shane.  Kevin says he had to send a message to Shane.  He also had to outsmart Shane McMahon.  Kevin says it is not hard to outsmart a man so blinded by his shortcomings.

Sami says that even the best deserve a reminder.  Sami says that now he is in the ring.  Sami rolls to the floor and he says he is outside the ring.  Sami says this is 'ringside'.  Ringside, you might see a terrible announce team.  You might see the bellman.  You get an up close look at the WWE Universe, and tonight it is not the most pleasant sight in the world.  Sami says you boo because you know it is true.

Sami starts to go up the ramp and he says when you cross the line, it is something very different altogether.  This area is where he laid waste to Randy Orton with a steel chair.  You can call that heinous or vicious, but you cannot say it happened at ringside.  Shane, you need to watch your words so carefully.  You try to get him and Kevin to conform to the system and they conformed to the system and they won.

Randy Orton hits Kevin Owens with an RKO out of nowhere.  

Shane McMahon's music plays and he comes out onto the stage as Sami backs up and moves closer to ringside.

Shane thanks Sami for the tutorial, but that is not why he is out here.  He says that Sami and Kevin think he has a vendetta against them and that is not true.  Sami will be teaming with Kevin Owens to face the duo of Randy Orton and a partner of Randy's choosing.  

Shane says they need to do something about all of the energy that Sami has.  Tonight, Sami will face Randy Orton.

Shane says that Kevin is welcome to join him at ringside.  Kevin will be handcuffed to the ring rope.

We are back and Sami and Kevin are in the back and Sami says it is bad.  Kevin says he cannot turn his head.  He asks Sami what did Shane say.  Sami says that he is wrestling Randy Orton.  Kevin asks if he is barred from ringside.  Sami says Kevin is allowed at ringside but he will be handcuffed to the ring ropes.  Kevin says it is embarrassing to be handcuffed in front of these idiots.  Kevin says he is going to fix this by talking to Daniel Bryan.

Aiden English and Rusev are in the ring and Aiden has the mic.  He says every day is Rusev Day, but around this time of year there is a special 12 Days of Rusev.  Aiden starts singing and the first day of Rusev is a Tag Team Victory.  The second day is Rusev shirts.

The New Day interrupt things before we can find out what we get on the Third Day of Rusev.

Aiden returns to the ring after discussing strategy with Rusev.  Rusev is tagged in and he kicks Kofi and applies a wrist lock.  Kofi with kicks to Rusev's legs and then he starts to work on the arm.  Kofi with an arm bar.  Rusev with a forearm and Irish whip but he runs into an elbow.  Kofi goes to the turnbuckles and Aiden distracts Kofi.  Aiden pulls the ropes down and Kofi goes over the top rope to the floor.  Aiden works over Kofi and sends him back into the ring and he gets a near fall.  Kofi kicks Aiden but he cannot get out of the corner.  Aiden chokes Kofi in the ropes.

We take a look at the end of the Hype Bros when Mojo Rawley hit Zack Ryder with a cheap shot.

Mojo Rawley is in the interview area and he is asked why he did what he did last week.  Mojo says everybody keeps getting on him for what he did to Zack Ryder.  Why don't you ask him about what Zack did to him.  Mojo reminds us that he won the Andre The Giant Battle Royal on his own.  When things started to go his way, Zack came back to drag him down.  Zack is dead weight.  Mojo says he is a serious competitor.  He is nobody's tag team partner.  If there is anybody in the locker room or in the arena who has an issue with what he did to Zack Ryder, they can shove it.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Rusev and Aiden English are now part of the Tag Title Match but all four teams will have a competitor and 

Daniel Bryan is in his office and Lana, Tamina, and Carmella are talking.  Carmella reminds Daniel that she got rid of Carmella so she deserves a spot on Night of Champions.  Lana reminds us about Natalya walking out on her team and Tamina deserves to be facing Charlotte.

Ruby Riott, Liv Morgan, and Sarah Logan enter and Ruby reminds Daniel that she pinned Charlotte, but she is not in the Smackdown Women's Title Match.  She wants to know why is that.  Do the tattoos scare you.  Liv says it is because Daniel is superficial.  Because you are partial to brunettes, you should not discriminate against blondes.  Sarah says that Daniel is prejudiced against the South.  

All six women argue and Daniel screams to shut them up.  Daniel says they will be at Clash of Champions because the women's title match is now a lumberjack match.

Baron Corbin asks Bobby Roode about making the match a Triple Threat Match and Dolph does not belong in the match.  Roode says that he can beat Corbin in a one on one match.  Roode says his chances to win at Clash of Champions go down by a third.  Corbin says his chance of retaining goes down by a third.

Dolph Ziggler shows up and he says he is in the match because he is a two time World Champion, a five time Intercontinental champion.  He successfully cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase.  Dolph says their chances to win at Clash of Champions mathematically dropped to zero.

We go to commercial.

We go to commercial.
