Tonight the Smackdown Brand had a live event and it was advertised the last month with a\u00a0double main event featuring A.J. Styles vs. Dean Ambrose for the World Title and Randy Orton vs. Bray Wyatt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(1) Dolph Ziggler defeated Tyler Breeze to retain the Intercontinental Championship. \u00a0Dolph scored the pinfall after hitting a Super Kick. \u00a0Great opening contest with fast-paced action.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(2) SmackDown Tag Champion Heath Slater &amp; The Hype Bros (w\/Mascot Cowboy Joe) defeated Viktor &amp; The Vaudevillains. Slater pinned Simon Gotch after the &#8220;Smash Hit&#8221; DDT. \u00a0This was a entertaining six man tag match. \u00a0Cowboy Joe is the mascot for the Wyoming Cowboys basketball and football teams.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(3) Apollo Crews defeated Curt Hawkins. Crews won with a spin out powerbomb. Solid match up, but afterward Curt Hawkins tells us all we need to face the facts, challenges anyone to come out and face the facts, then &#8220;The Demon&#8221; Kane&#8217;s music hit and he came out to answer the challenge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(4) Kane defeated Curt Hawkins. Kane won via chokeslam in less than 10 seconds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Bray Wyatt cut a promo on the video screen about Randy Orton.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(5) Baron Corbin defeated Jack Swagger. Corbin wins via roll up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(6) Randy Orton defeated Bray Wyatt. Orton attempted an RKO, but Wyatt reversed it into a &#8220;Sister Abigail.&#8221; Then Orton countered into a roll up and Wyatt kicked out, Finally the Viper hit the RKO out of nowhere for the win. Another great match with Orton being really over with the crowd and doing what he does best. Mostly all the fans had their phones lit up as &#8220;fire flies&#8221; during Wyatts&#8217;s entrance. Afterward, \u00a0Orton circled around, took pictures, and signed autographs for the fans.<\/span><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-3592705995\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Styles cut a promo on the video screen about his match with Ambrose later in the night and said he is &#8220;the face that runs the place.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(7) Naomi &amp; Natalya defeated Alexa Bliss &amp; Carmella. Naomi pinned Alexa for the win. Towards the end of the match Naomi tried to tag in Natalya, but since Natty is still p<\/span><span class=\"s1\">laying her heel role, she stepped off the apron and walked to the back. Afterwards Naomi danced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(8) American Alpha defeated The Usos. Alpha gets the win with a Grand Amplitude on Jimmy. Solid tag team match.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(9) A.J.\u00a0Styles defeated Dean Ambrose to retain the WWE World Championship. \u00a0Ambrose almost had the match won, but A.J. hit him with a low blow and Styles Clash for the finish. \u00a0Great performances by both men as always. The match went about 20 minutes with plenty of action and near falls. \u00a0Afterwards Styles grabbed the mic and said, &#8220;I&#8217;m the face that runs the place, the champ that runs the camp, and still the WWE World Champion!&#8221; Ambrose then delivered a Dirty Deeds on A.J. to send the crowd home happy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">BIGGEST POPS:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"s1\">Orton<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Ambrose<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Styles (mixed reaction)<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Kane<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Ziggler<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Wyatt (ring entrance)<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Hype Bros and Slater<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Naomi<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Crews<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">MOST HEEL HEAT<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"s1\">Hawkins<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Breeze<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Wyatt (as he taunted the crowd)<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Usos<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Styles (mixed reaction)<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Corbin<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Vaudevillains and Viktor<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Natty (when she walked out on Naomi)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><strong>FINAL THOUGHTS:<\/strong> All in all great show and the auditorium was about a quarter full tonight. \u00a0No return date was announced.
