WWE SmackDown Results, January 15th 2019, Latest SmackDown Live winners and video highlights

SmackDown Live kicked off with Becky Lynch arriving in her car backstage. The crowd chanted for Becky and she was stopped by Kayla Braxton. She said she's going to answer the question of whether she's ready for Asuka in the ring.

Becky ran into Heavy Machinery and The New Day backstage. Heavy Machinery put pancakes, whole eggs and ground it in a mixer. They drank it while The New Day were disgusted.

Becky took a sip of it too. She went to the ring and the crowd erupted. Becky started talking about the hype and how everyone's been trying to be a bad**s. She talked about how Asuka's hype died down at WrestleMania.

Asuka came out and mentioned something about stinging like a bee. The Iiconics came out and interrupted them, trashing both of them before claiming they're going to win the Rumble and the women's tag titles. Becky challenged them to a match.

Asuka came in mic in hand, screaming in Japanese after the match and ran after Billie Kay who was ringside. Turned out, she challenged Kay and the bell rang right after to start the match.

Asuka vs. Billie Kay

Asuka was not to be overshadowed by Becky

Asuka went for her own version of the disarmher on Kay after dragging her into the ring. Kay reversed it but The Empress locked in the Asuka Lock for the win in under two minutes, from what it seemed.

Result: Asuka def. Billie Kay

AJ Styles appeared right as the match between Asuka and Kay ended and even though he wasn't scheduled to show up, he climbed over the barricades and walked up the aisles as we headed for commercials.

When we returned, AJ was handing out merch to the fans in the arena and Daniel Bryan attacked him from the crowd. They brawled for a bit and Bryan was sent through a table until security stepped in and dragged them apart.

Jimmy and Jey were confused by this gift

Backstage, Jimmy Uso got a rose and a motel key and Jey read the letter which said that it was from Mandy Rose and not Naomi like they had initially thought. EC3 was backstage as Samoa Joe got ready to step inside the ring.

Still backstage, Andrade and Zelina were being interviewed and Vega said that Andrade would beat Rey Mysterio later in the night as well as the Royal Rumble and eventually the WWE Championship.

It's also official that Andrade 'Cien' Almas is now going by the name of just Andrade.

Samoa Joe vs. Mustafa Ali

Samoa Joe destroyed Mustafa Ali before the match even began

Samoa Joe attacked Mustafa Ali before the match even started while Ali was making his entrance. Joe sent him crashing outside the ring and the officials instructed him to go back to the lockers. Joe seemed to comply but then ran back and flung Ali at the turnbuckles before walking out. Ali was not in a condition to compete and the match was called off. Joe returned once more and sent Ali into the barricades before the segment was over.

It seems like Ali vs Joe is the new feud starting off!

Result: Samoa Joe vs. Mustafa Ali was called off

Backstage, Mandy Rose and Sonya DeVille were discussing if it was okay for Mandy to give Jimmy her hotel key. Sonya was opposed to the idea saying it was too 'scandalous'. Mandy told her that she really hates Naomi and the best way to get back at her would be to break up her marriage with Jimmy Uso.

Sonya still looked on, giving a look of disapproval.

Rey Mysterio vs. Andrade

Andrade and Mysterio put on probably the best match on WWE TV so far in 2019

Both men showed great agility countering each other's moves before Andrade was caught with an arm drag by the veteran. Mysterio caught Andrade in a headlock but got flipped, landing on his back. Andrade dodged a 619 and Rey countered the Hammerlock DDT and then sent Andrade over the ropes while still latching on to his shoulders with his legs. Andrade recovered and hit a huge powerbomb on Rey outside as we headed to commercials.

Rey sent Andrade into the turnbuckles and then sent him outside before leaping off the ropes and onto his opponent. Back in the ring, Mysterio hit a top rope move but Andrade caught him with a dropkick. Andrade hit a moonsault but yet again Rey kicked out. Andrade blocked a 619 but Mysterio hit a crucifix bomb and then the 619. Vega interfered and Andrade took down Mysterio before hitting the Hammerlock DDT for the win.

Result: Andrade def. Rey Mysterio

Jimmy Uso confronts Mandy Rose in her hotel room

Jimmy Uso knocking on Mandy's hotel room door

Jimmy Uso arrived at Mandy Rose's hotel room in a short segment and knocked before walking in. Mandy was in a dressing gown and called Jimmy in. Uso said they shouldn't be doing this but Mandy told her to stop playing hard to get before taking off the gown and revealing black lingerie. Before Jimmy Uso could say anything, a photographer ran in, clicked pictures of them and ran away.

Mandy finally revealed to Jimmy that the real target was not him, but his wife Naomi. Jimmy smiled and walked out of the hotel room, sending Naomi in. Naomi was wearing a bright yellow jumpsuit and immediately attacked Mandy, taking her down on the hotel room floor before Rose ran away screaming.

Jimmy Uso came in finally to help his wife up and it was clear that Mandy's plans were thwarted long before Jimmy set foot in the hotel room as the segment ended.

Shane McMahon's Bestie Birthday Bash hosted by the Miz

McMahon and the Miz celebrated Shane's birthday in a spectacular way

The Miz introduced the birthday boy Shane McMahon who came into the ring and we learnt that the Miz had ordered not one, but two cakes from Shane's favourite bakery. He then handed Shane his birthday present and it was a pair of Jordan 33's that he wanted Shane to wear for their Royal Rumble appearance. Then the Miz showed off a video package he had put together on the Titantron showcasing his career and their friendship.

The Bar came out to wreck the party and noted how Vince did not care enough to be there. Shane called out Sheamus and Cesaro and said one of them should face the Miz tonight. Miz said he wasn't in his gear but Shane said it was birthday wish so Miz couldn't say no.

The Miz vs. Sheamus

The celebrations came to a close after The Bar were disposed of

Miz was wearing a suit and sent Sheamus outside early on. Sheamus tore Miz's shirt off as the match returned to the ring but Miz went for the Skull Crushing Finale and missed. Sheamus was sent into the ring post but managed to hit a lariat sending Miz to the mat. Cesaro came in with a distraction but Shane sent him through the table with the cakes on it. Miz took the opportunity and got the rollup and the three count.

Result: The Miz def. Sheamus

Sheamus attacked Miz after the match and Shane came to the rescue. Miz hit the Skull Crushing Finale and they set Sheamus up for the Coast to Coast in the corner which Shane pulled off with the remaining cake in front of Sheamus' face. The two finally raised the best in the World trophy over their heads and celebrated as the show came to a close.
