This week's WWE SmackDown consisted of several notable developments and great wrestling that led to an interesting discussion on social media. However, there were also a few errors made during this week's SmackDown that will be discussed below.
In the opening match, WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Charlotte Flair and Asuka showed up on SmackDown to take on The Riott Squad. While the bout itself was brief and fun, the ending played into Billie Kay's story, who is trying to fit in with Ruby Riott and Liv Morgan on the Blue brand. Billie's attempts towards helping out her team accidentally resulted in the referee being unable to see Ruby Riott pinning Asuka.

In the opening segment of SmackDown, Paul Heyman challenged Adam Pearce to a match in the main event. However, it turned out to be a trap when Heyman declared that the card is subject to change just before the bout began.
Out came Universal Champion Roman Reigns, who brutalized Pearce for a while until Owens came to the WWE official's rescue. The show ended with KO standing tall after he took down The Tribal Chief.
