The Fiend seemingly saves Bliss from any harm, appearing and swapping places with Strowman. Or...did Strowman swap places with him? Nobody knows, but everyone's laughing.

Well, everyone but Alexa.

"Everyone that comes in contact with The Fiend changes, including you. Now get out of my ring. I want The Fiend."
Alexa Bliss says that she needs to slap some sense into Strowman, and does so. Strowman laughs it all off before picking up Bliss for a military press.

Alexa Bliss runs down to the ring to confront the Universal Champion, wanting a conversation. Bliss says that they've been friends for years, but Strowman claims that he's been a pawn for her instead.

Strowman calls out The Fiend, reminding him that he said when he emerged from the swamp, he'd be the meanest S.O.B. that anyone had ever seen.

Braun follows up, claiming that he would eat The Fiend's entrails..

Braun is bald!

Sheamus takes out Big E with a Brogue Kick and backpedals through the crowd as Braun Strowman emerges.

E is able to force a submission with the Stretch Muffler.

Big E defeats John Morrison via submission.

Back in the ring, Morrison brings Big E up top for an Avalanche Spanish Fly. Big E breaks away and spikes Morrison with a uranage slam.

Apparently they didn't show that on the big screen, so none of the WWE Superstars found out. Referee Jess comes in and sends them to the backstage, leaving Big E and Morrison open for an assault.

The SmackDown locker room has surrounded ringside, hoping to prevent any more interference. Retribution returns, aright, but takes out officials backstage while wrecking the place.

Otis rushes to ringside and calls out Miz. The lights begin to flicker, leading to Graves and Cole screaming for security while we go to break.

Morrison gets sandwiched between the apron and Big E's massive pecs. That's not a sandwich I wanna be a part of.

Miz distracts Big E by "accidentally" tripping him with a headset cord. Morrison follows up with a chop block to the back of the leg.

Big E avoids the capoeira kicks and slams Morrison on the mat. Morrison attempts a springboard move but is shoved off mid-jump, taking a nasty tumble. A big clothesline lays out the former ECW Champion.

It's time for the Big E vs John Morrison rematch. The big man is taken down after some shots to the left knee.

Sonya Deville accepts the challenge to a Hair vs Hair match. Someone's leaving SummerSlam bald.

Whoa, next week we're getting an Intercontinental Championship match. AJ Styles defends against Jeff Hardy.

Those comments cut Alexa pretty deep, it seems.

When asked why The Fiend attacked her, Bliss says that it was a terrifying moment. Last week, Braun Strowman claimed that he never cared about Alexa, and only wanted to destroy The Fiend.

Asuka to face Bayley at SummerSlam

Bliss is interviewed backstage and asked about his relationship and friendship with the Universal Champion. Team Little Big was a dominating duo on the Mixed Match Challenge years ago.

She says that they're incredibly close, and have become best friends over the course of the years. She says that the idea of a romantic relationship crossed her mind.

Gable offers Riddle an apology man to man, and Riddle happily accepts, welcoming the competition in the future. Corbin blindsides Riddle and thanks Gable for his help.

Monsters.

Chad Gable comes up and tries to explain his reasoning behind why he did what he did. It was a lot of money, and he has a family.

Wait...what uh...how much is Corbin offering? Have we been told?

Matt Riddle is here, and is asked about King Corbin by Kayla Braxton. He says that he's annoyed by the King's Ransom, but he came here to "Bro Down and Throw Down."

Next up? Alexa Bliss looks to get some answers about what happened to her over the past few weeks.

Kalisto and Lince Dorado take out Cesaro, distracting Nakamura. Metalik rocks him with a kick and hits a flying elbow drop for the upset win.

Gran Metalik defeats Shinsuke Nakamura via pinfall.

Cesaro distracts Metalik, allowing Nakamura to counter a dive with a big kick to the jaw. The inverted exploder connects, but the Kinshasa is interrupted by the returning Kalisto.

Just noticed it's a battle of the Kings tonight.

Metalik catches Nakamura with a springboard crossbody and plants him with a bulldog. A springboard back elbow earns him a two-count on the King of Strong Style.

Next up is Shinsuke Nakamura vs Gran Metalik. Nakamura starts strong, taking Metalik to the corner with elbows to the dome.

Backstage, Joseph Park is crying holding the P.I.S.S. sign while AJ Styles calls out Hardy for attacking him, not champion like. He says that he'll erase Hardy, and when he goes to wipe the board, it was written in permanent marker.

Okay, that was pretty funny.

Cesaro and Nakamura are talking some trash, and are distracted with Lucha House Party steal the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Titles.
