WWE SmackDown Live Results (August 12, 2023): Jey Uso quits the WWE

Jey Uso bids goodbye to the Bloodline and the WWE

"I'm out the Bloodline! I'm out of SmackDown! I'm out the WWE! Deuces, Uces!"

Jey Uso just left WWE!

Roman's spear is stopped by another kick, and Jey spears Roman for good measure. Jey calls out to Jimmy. He goes for a hug, and Jimmy accepts. Before he can, Jey rocks him with a superkick as well!

Jey turns his back on Jimmy, and Jimmy leaves the ring. Roman laughs in his face.

"This is about one thing! ACKNOWLEDGE M-" a superkick takes Roman's head off. Jey takes out Roman momentarily and clears Solo Sikoa. Unfortunately, Roman catches him with the Superman Punch while Jimmy continues to walk up the ramp.

Watch: Jimmy says what he did at SummerSlam had nothing to do with Roman Reigns

"I was afraid you were gonna leave. So if you wanna kick my face off, give it to me."

Jimmy is ready for his punishment. But is any punishment good enough?

Jey Uso confronts Jimmy and asks the question. Why?!

Jimmy says he did it because he loves him. He did it because if Jey beats Roman, what happens to The Usos? Jey becomes The Tribal Chief, and he inherits power that makes him like Roman.

That excuse is awful.

Roman says he owes Jimmy, and asks him to name his price.

"You want a new car? Done. You want a yacht? Done." Jimmy says he wants nothing from Roman, and what he did has nothing to do with the Tribal Chief.

"You sold out" chants are echoing throughout the building. Canada is anti-Jimmy Uso.

Roman asks Paul Heyman where Jimmy is. Paul says he spoke to him this morning, but Jimmy was "salty" with him. At that moment, Jimmy appears next to the ring to a chorus of boos.

What does Roman Reigns have to say following his Tribal Combat victory?

The Bloodline has arrived. Roman Reigns, Solo Sikoa, and Paul Heyman make their way to the ring. It's time to find out what exactly happened at SummerSlam.

Watch: Rey Mysterio defeats Austin Theory to win his first singles title in three years!

Mysterio avoids A-Town Down and rocks Theory with a 619 to the back! Another 619, but Theory counters. The back gives out thanks to the first attempt, giving Rey the chance to hit it one more time. After dropping the dime, we have a new champion!

Rey Mysterio defeats Austin Theory via pinfall.

Rey Mysterio has Austin Theory on the back foot! The young WWE Superstar didn't expect to face the Hall of Famer tonight!

Austin Theory attacks Santos Escobar once again, taking out the already-injured leg. Theory assumes he's wrapped up his night, but that's not the case. Adam Pearce makes it official; Rey Mysterio will challenge for the United States Championship instead!

Bobby Lashley and the Street Profits are in a lounge, and Lashley is hyping up the former tag team champions for their change. The Profits say the job isn't finished. Lashley poses what they could do together. The sky's the limit, and SmackDown is ready for "New Blood" to run it.

An injured Santos Escobar hobbles into a United States Title match.

"Doesn't matter if I'm RAW, if I'm on SmackDown. Doesn't matter if you call yourself 'Awesome' or if your name's Uncle Phil. At the end, everybody knows whose game is it? L! A! Knight!"

The WWE Universe loves LA Knight.

Top Dolla is dominating LA Knight early on. The Slim Jim Battle Royal winner lands on his feet out of a fireman's carry position and takes down the big man with a diving bulldog. Ashante "Thee" Adonis attempts to interrupt, only to be taken out by Knight.

Knight finishes the night with Blunt Force Trauma to Top Dolla!

LA Knight defeats Top Dolla via pinfall.

"LA Knight, future so bright. Top Dolla, about to get smashed, tonight."

Michael Cole's rap. Don't quit your day job, Cole.

LA Knight is out next, YEAH! He'll face Top Dolla in singles action.

Edge and Sheamus thank one another for the way they've treated one another and been there for each other over the years. Edge asks the man face to face if Sheamus will face him next week. Sheamus agrees, but says, "You better hope you didn't make a mistake."

Oooh...spicy!

Sheamus brings footage from the Celtic Warrior Workout showing Edge's bruises after a nasty bike crash.

Edge: You're gonna show my bare white a*s on TV?
Sheamus: You've shown worse on TV, let's be honest.

Edge calls out Sheamus and the Brawling Brutes, and the fans are stoked. This sounds like an awesome match...that may be Edge's retirement bout?

"Sheamus is the reason I'm still standing here again in this ring. Sheamus is the guy that lit the fire under my b*tt that got me thinking I could do this again after a triple fusion neck surgery."

Edge mentions Sheamus's YouTube channel, claiming that it's what got him back to the ring.

Edge says he knows he wasn't listed on the docket or advertised tonight, but he wanted to surprise his fans in Calgary. He says he wants to have a match next week. A one-on-one match with someone he's never faced in singles competition, shockingly enough.

That man? Former WWE Champion Sheamus!

Cathy Kelley is backstage by the trainer's room, awaiting news on Escobar's injury. Austin Theory comes by to gloat about not defending, only for Rey Mysterio to burst out the door and confront Mr. All Day. Mysterio says Escobar will compete tonight.

The Rated-R Suuuuuuuuuuuuuperstar has arrived! Edge is in the building, and we'll hear from him next!

Scarlett attempts to interfere, forcing Mia Yim's hand. She eliminates Kross's partner, allowing Styles to connect with the pele kick and Styles Clash for the win!

AJ Styles defeats Karrion Kross via pinfall.

Back from the break, Styles has Kross set up for the Phenomenal Forearm. Kross ducks, and locks in the Kross Jacket. Styles gets to the corner to break it and attempts the moonsault DDT. The key word being, "attempts," because that did not work.

AJ Styles traps Karrion Kross in the Muta Lock!

Kross takes Styles up for a superplex, but Styles slips through. The former WWE Champion sends Kross to the floor, following with an attempted sliding knee. Kross catches him and slams him on the announce table with a death valley driver!

With Theory attacking Santos Escobar, will we get to see the United States Championship match tonight?

AJ Styles faces Karrion Kross next! Can he overcome the brutality of the Bringer of Doomsday?!

The United States Champion may have broken his challengers leg!

Santos Escobar is interviewed by Kayla Braxton. The original Legado Del Fantasma leader says he's ready for the US Championship match tonight. Before he can continue, he's blindsided by Austin Theory!

We get some recap footage of the SummerSlam main event where Jimmy Uso cost his brother Jey the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship and the role as Tribal Chief.

Six days later and it makes no sense.

Damage CTRL attacks both Charlotte Flair and Asuka! Iyo Sky was here to send a message, and that message is that Damage CTRL runs Friday nights!

No Contest

Just as Charlotte goes for the Figure 8, the WWE Women's Champion and Damage CTRL make their presence known!

Charlotte catches Asuka on the floor with a slingshot crossbody and follows that with a cross body off the top rope back in the ring. The multi-time champion is on top of her game tonight.

A cartwheel lariat drops Asuka for a two-count.

Asuka counters a handspring from Flair with a big dropkick! These two rivals are going back and forth in a great opener!
