– WWE began a new heel alliance between Sami Zayn and WWE Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura on last night’s SmackDown as they teamed up to take out The Miz.
A fan tweeted about how Ali’s feud with Nakamura appears to have been dropped out of nowhere, and Ali re-tweeted that comment and wrote, “Yes.”
Ali vs. Nakamura had been rumored for WWE Clash of Champions but there was no sign of that feud continuing on SmackDown. Ali worked the pre-SmackDown dark match, losing to Samoa Joe, but did not appear on TV.
– This week’s SmackDown saw the King of the Ring tournament continue as Andrade defeated Apollo Crews to advance and WWE 24/7 Champion Elias defeated Kevin Owens to advance. Below is post-show video of Cathy Kelley interviewing Andrade and Zelina Vega. Cathy said it seems like Andrade will do anything and everything to win the tournament, and that’s when Vega interrupted.
“Excuse you, are you implying something? Are you implying that Andrade did not win that on his own? Because that’s what I saw. He was the winner, the ref held his hands. I’m telling you right now that Andrade is going to be the new King of the Ring, hands down. I’m just getting ready for the future, this is what’s going to happen. I have a crown, you don’t see anybody else walking around with crowns here. Andrade is going to be the King,” Vega said.
Andrade added, “I don’t have a plan. This is my destiny. I will be the new King of the Ring.”
– Below is a new promo for The Undertaker‘s return to WWE SmackDown, set for Madison Square Garden on September 10. WWE will run MSG the night before for RAW. The promo also focuses on Randy Orton vs. WWE Champion Kofi Kingston, which was believed to be the dark main event.
