AJ Styles Competes In SmackDown Dark Match
WWE taped this week’s episode of SmackDown Live earlier today in Manchester, England at the Manchester Arena. After the tapings, there was a dark match that saw WWE Champion AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan defeat Randy Orton and The Miz in a tag team match. Styles didn’t appear on this week’s episode of SmackDown Live.
The finish of the dark match saw Bryan block the RKO before Styles hit Orton with a Phenomenal Forearm, which later led to Styles submitting The Miz with the Calf Crusher to end the match. After the match, Styles took the microphone to cut a promo about how he won the WWE Title from Jinder Mahal in the city last year, which he called a moment in his career that he will never forget. He greeted with the fans at ringside to wrap up the show.
Interesting AOP Stat
The Authors of Pain became the new RAW Tag Team Champions after beating Seth Rollins in a 2-on-1 Handicap Match. An interesting stat has emerged about the Authors of Pain.
The tag team made history as they are the first former NXT Tag Champions (as a unit) to win the RAW Tag Team Championships. If you recall, American Alpha made similar history when they won the NXT Tag Team Titles as well as the SmackDown Tag Team Titles. Thanks to Will Henderson for that stat.
