WWE SmackDown Live report card: Analysing and grading each segment (10 April, 2018)

#6 Daniel Bryan vs. AJ Styles (no contest)

Shinsuke Nakamura made a statement in the main event

Segment: Daniel Bryan’s first SmackDown match in three years ended in a no contest after Shinsuke Nakamura interfered to attack both Bryan and AJ Styles. “The King of Strong Style” knocked D-Bry out the ring with a Kinshasa and then continued to attack Styles, striking him with two low-blows and a Kinshasa, before leaving the ring and walking up the ramp to close the show.

Verdict: As great as it is to see Bryan vs. Styles on a non-PPV show, this quickly arranged match surely means that one of them will be sent to Raw in next week’s Superstar Shake-Up. The match was very good (Bryan and Styles just don’t do bad matches!) but it felt inevitable that Nakamura would interfere at some point, so the finish was very predictable.
