The next round of SmackDown live events took us to Laramie, Wyoming.There were a number of great matches on the card – headlined by a bout between AJ Styles and Dean Ambrose. The Superstars from the blue brand put on a great show which was greatly appreciated by the vocal live crowd of around a 1000 fans. Given that Laramie has a population of only 30,000, that’s a decent number.
Below are the results from the event:
Dolph Ziggler vs Tyler Breeze (for the WWE Intercontinental Championship)
Ziggler and Breeze put on the good show. After floundering on the main roster, Tyler Breeze has finally started to show what he’s capable of. After a back and forth match, Ziggler won with the Zig Zag to retain his newly won title.

Hype Bros and Heath Slater vs The Vaudevillains and Konnor
The University of Wyoming mascot, Pistol Pete, accompanied the Hype Bros to the ring which was probably the most memorable thing from this match. We got a standard six-man tag with Slater and the Hype Bros taking the win. Heath Slater was super-over once again.

Apollo Crews vs Curt Hawkins (followed by Kane vs Curt Hawkins)
This match was a fast-paced and relatively quick affair with Apollo Crews impressing and pulling off the win after about 3 minutes.

Hawkins was aghast and refused to leave the ring till another opponent was given to him. To his horror, out came Kane. Hawkins made the huge mistake of talking trash to Kane on his face before the bell rang. Kane immediately chokeslammed Hawkins for the win.

Jack Swagger vs Baron Corbin
Jack Swagger and Baron Corbin faced off again in Laramie. The match was as dull their recent encounters with Corbin picking up the win with a roll-up.

Bray Wyatt vs Randy Orton
Another match in the Wyatt-Orton saga took place in Laramie with Orton coming out to one of the biggest pops of the night. This was a good match with good psychology with Orton managing to pull off the win with an RKO out of nowhere.

Alexa Bliss and Carmealla vs Naomi and Natalya
A good solid match from the women of the blue brand.
The match had a great ending with Naomi going for the tag with Natalya refusing. Alexa and Carmella then attacked Naomi who managed to throw Carmella into Natalyawho was on the apron. Naomi then hit the isolated Bliss with the Rear View to pick up the pinfall.

American Alpha vs The Usos
This match was a strange one with the heel Usos getting cheered while American Alpha got booes – which seemed to annoy both teams a good deal.
Most of the match consisted of the Usos beating up Gable who finally managed to tag in Jordan near the end, who came in and cleaned house. He then tagged Gable back in and they hit the Grand Amplitude fo the win.

AJ Styles vs Dean Ambrose
Ambrose was really over in Wyoming while everything Styles did got him booed. Styles even tried to leave the match a few minutes in with Ambrose dragging him back into the ring. Styles won after taking advantage of a distracted referee to send Ambrose crashing into an exposed turnbuckle which he followed up with a Styles Clash.
Post match, Styles tried to whack Ambrose with the belt but Ambrose countered and hit him with the dirty deeds.
