What happened on WWE SmackDown last week?
The show started with the traditional ten-bell salute for the two late stars. Many members of the WWE roster appeared on the stage to pay respect to Funk and Wyatt.
United States Champion Rey Mysterio was in the first match of the show, going up against Grayson Waller in a non-title bout. Austin Theory came out to cause a distraction, but LWO member Santos Escobar managed to neutralize him. This allowed Mysterio to deliver the 619/Splash combination for a win.
IYO SKY was out next with the rest of Damage CTRL to defend the WWE Women's Championship against Zelina Vega. The two stars put on a thriller, but The Genius of the Sky won with the Over the Moonsault.
Cody Rhodes later cut a promo on the legendary career of Terry Funk. The Brawling Brutes and The Street Profits then competed in a Terry Funk Hardcore Tag Team Match. Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins won the bout after Bobby Lashley emerged to Spear Butch on the outside.
LA Knight then showed up and paid tribute to his former rival, Bray Wyatt. He claimed that The Eater of Worlds was preparing him for what was to come in his career during their feud. He then turned his attention to The Miz and vowed to teach The A-Lister a lesson.
Knight faced Finn Balor in the show's main event. Wyatt's former adversaries put on a show for the fans in attendance. The Megastar won the contest as he planted Balor with the Blunt Force Trauma.
The match was followed by a fitting homage to Bray Wyatt as the show quietly went off the air.
