We will crown all four SD Live champions.
Match 1. Naomi vs. Sasha Banks - SmackDown Women's Championship
Two of the toughest women on the roster. Naomi hit a head scissors and twisting leg drop. She then hit a springboard cross body and backbreaker. Sasha made her comeback and landed the Back Stabber but got a two count. Naomi recovered and won with the Rear View.
A great women's match. Naomi will have some tough competition.
Match 2. TM61 vs. The Usos - SmackDown Tag Team Championship
Thorne hit Jey with a uri nagi. Miller then worked over Jimmy. Thorne hit Jey with a spinning slam and a sit-out powerbomb. Miller and Jimmy fought on the outside. Thorne then won with a 450 splash.
What a match. No wasted motion by TM61. These two are definitely not done fighting.
Match 3. DIY vs. The Ascension
DIY is a bit undersized here. Ciampa was able to out-wrestle them early. Konnor slammed Ciampa down and kept him down with a backbreaker. He dodges an elbow and finally reaches Gargano and DIY takes over. All four men were in the ring. Gargano kicked out of a full nelson slam. Viktor pinned Ciampa after a sit-out butterfly powerbomb.
Another good tag match. The Ascension pick up a nice win over the veterans.
Match 4. Rob Van Dam vs. Rusev - United States Championship
These two have big wins leading up to this match. Rusev shook off a wheel kick and overpowered Van Dam. He hit a super Samoan drop. After a backbreaker, he hit an ax kick. RVD hit a 'rana on the outside and a corkscrew senton. Rusev won with the Alabama Slam.
Van Dam couldn't build up momentum. Rusev dominated 90 percent of the match.
Match 5. Eric Young vs. The Miz
A feud based on respect. It was pretty even in the beginning. Miz then had Young down and kicked him in the ribs. Young busted out a Death Valley Driver for a near fall. He then hit a piledriver and super back suplex. Miz went for a front headlock DDT but Young countered. Young kicked out of the Skull Crushing Finale. After a neck breaker, Young won with a huge diving elbow.
Miz went to attack Young but Eric ducked and tossed him out. Young triumphs over Miz. Good match.
Match 6. Last Man Standing - Chris Jericho vs. Braun Strowman
This is a tough task for Jericho. Jericho pulled out a chair to make it even, but it backfired. Braun had Jericho down a few times. Jericho built up momentum and hit a reverse suplex. He pulled out a bat. Let's see how this goes. He hit Braun over the head. Braun hit a huge powerbomb and won after a twisting flapjack.
Jericho tried to use weapons but they didn't help. Braun keeps on winning.
Main Event. Undertaker vs. Sami Zayn - WWE Championship
Zayn was the last guy I thought deserved a title shot. What a matchup, though. Zayn hit a half-and-half suplex. Zayn was hitting some big moves early. He landed the Blue Thunder Bomb but Taker kicked out. Taker connected with Old School. Zayn got another near fall after the Helluva kick and second Blue Thunder Bomb. Taker would not stay down. Taker scooped Zayn for the Tombstone and won.
Holy crap. Zayn hit every move in his arsenal but couldn't win. Taker stands tall.
Recap: A good first PPV for SmackDown. Taker, Naomi, TM61 and Rusev are the champs.
