#5. Edge and Seth Rollins made their final statements on WWE Supersized SmackDown

WWE Hall of Famer Edge appeared on Supersized SmackDown to talk about his match at Crown Jewel. Edge took to the ring before his Hell in a Cell match against Seth Rollins in Saudi Arabia next week.

The Rated-R Superstar admitted that Rollins is not Edge-lite. He acknowledged him as Seth Freaking Rollins. Edge said he could have gone over to Rollins’ home and encountered Beck Lynch. However, he was waiting to put Rollins under his boot next week.

Later in the night, the self-proclaimed Drip God came out on Supersized SmackDown. He repeatedly told the WWE Universe that he was not afraid of facing Edge inside Hell in a Cell.

He reminded WWE fans that he has spent more time in the structure than his veteran opponent. He said the cell made him who he is today. He ended the segment by staring into the camera and vowing that he would end Edge next Thursday before dropping the mic.

The match between Edge and Seth Rollins will be one of the biggest matches at Crown Jewel. Both men did an excellent job at delivering their final promos on Supersized SmackDown. Edge is the favorite to win in Saudi Arabia, but Rollins could pull off a big victory to end his rivalry with the Hall of Famer.

The Prince fought back and hit a shotgun dropkick to stun his opponent. Zayn caught Balor with a Blue Thunder Bomb and nearly picked up the win.

Finn fought back and went on his signature offense. He went through the moves before hitting the Coup de Grace and pinning Sami Zayn to pick up the win on Supersized SmackDown.

It was the best match of the tournament and gave the WWE fans a good competition on Supersized SmackDown. Balor could become the King of the Ring at Crown Jewel unless Xavier Woods reaches the final on Monday.

#3. The Usos defeated The Street Profits in a Street Fight on WWE Supersized SmackDown

Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss came out to have some fun on WWE’s Supersized SmackDown. The two men cracked "jokes" before Rick Boogs and Shinsuke Nakamura came out. The two men introduced The Street Profits, who were ready for a special Street Fight for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship against The Usos.

The Usos took control of the match early on and punished Angelo Dawkins with a few stiff kendo stick shots. Montez Ford helped his partner, and hit a cross-body to take down The Usos.

A babyface comeback followed, and Dawkins obliterated Jey with a kendo stick. Ford followed with a steel chair. Jimmy Uso saved his partner, and The Usos hit a pair of Superkicks to their opponents.

Ford nearly picked up the win with a Frog Splash before Jey made the save and sent Ford through the table at ringside. Double Superkicks followed from The Usos, who hit consecutive splashes to pick up the win on Supersized SmackDown.

#2. Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch delivered a great match on WWE Supersized SmackDown

Sasha Banks competed against Becky Lynch in the biggest match of WWE Supersized SmackDown. The final match of the night gave the WWE Universe something big to look forward to.

Bianca Belair appeared before the match and joined the commentary team. Both women traded submission holds in hopes of picking up a quick victory. This led to things getting very physical.

The Boss delivered the Three Amigos to Lynch to entertain fans on Supersized SmackDown. The Man did some damage to Banks’ arm by applying a rope-assisted Dis-arm-her.

The two women traded big moves and kept the action ticking for the WWE Universe. Banks delivered a couple of Meteoras but could not pick up the win. Banks forced Lynch to tap outside the ring but could not put her away inside.

The action spilled outside again when Lynch accidentally wiped out Belair. Back inside, Banks delivered another Meteora, but Lynch got her knees up during a frog splash attempt.

After some more action, Belair helped Banks deliver the backstabber and pin the SmackDown Women’s Champion.

This was one of the best matches of Supersized SmackDown. Fans have been complaining that women aren’t getting enough screen time in WWE. Supersized SmackDown did well to give the two women a lot of time to put on a great show.

The match proved that Lynch did not have much ring rust. She could lose her title against Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks at Crown Jewel on Thursday.

#1. Brock Lesnar continued to play mind games on WWE Supersized SmackDown

Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar were booked for a mammoth segment on WWE Supersized SmackDown. The two men came out for a show-closing contract signing ceremony for the Universal Championship match at Crown Jewel.

The Tribal Chief had his special counsel read over the contract to ensure it met his satisfaction. Heyman confirmed, and Reigns signed it.

Brock Lesnar took the contract and signed it immediately without even looking at it. Roman Reigns mocked his challenger for not even reading the contract. “I already read the damn contract earlier this morning...with my advocate,” Lesnar said, calling into question Heyman’s allegiances again.

An infuriated Reigns stared down his special counsel as the show came to a close. WWE needed to hit the ball out of the park before Crown Jewel. The final moments of the show did just that.

Supersized SmackDown did well to build the matches for Thursday. The final segment seemed a little rushed, but allowed WWE to do something big before heading to Saudi Arabia.

Paul Heyman is stuck between a rock and a hard place. It will be interesting to see how he gets out of this one.
