Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown recap for July 14, 2016

Earlier today: Kevin Owens finds a gift card in a birthday card from Sami Zayn meant for Owens' own son worth $20 Canadian and keeps it all for himself, Dana Brooke and Charlotte arrive by limo and tell Sasha Banks lightning won't strike twice, The Miz welcomes Darren Young and Bob Backlund to Miz TV, Dean Ambrose plans on shattering Kevin Owens' ego.

Sasha Banks beats Dana Brooke with the Banks Statement, then gets attacked by Charlotte, who tosses her towards the commentary table before she tells Sasha that she will never beat her.



Zack Ryder vs. Rusev for the WWE United States Championship is official for Battleground.

Dolph Ziggler beats Rusev with a schoolboy pin after Zack Ryder shows up, not distracting Rusev once, but twice when Rusev decides to deal with Ryder and Ziggler at the same time. After the match, Rusev loses his cool and rips out two turnbuckle covers before throwing other things around at ringside.



The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) vs. The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman) is official for Battleground.

We see excerpts of John Cena hosting The Espys from last Monday night.

The Club (AJ Styles and Karl Anderson) beat Enzo Amore and Big Cass after Luke Gallows gets involved and successfully distracts Big Cass, allowing AJ Styles to make Enzo tap out with the Calf Crusher after working on his left leg earlier in the match.



Kalisto beats Tyler Breeze.



It's time for Miz TV. Tonight's guests are Darren Young and Bob Backlund. After a Bob Backlund video package on the TitanTron, we almost see one for Darren Young but we get a test pattern instead, as Miz says he couldn't find any career highlights. Darren Young says all he needs to do is beat The Miz for the Intercontinental title. Bob Backlund says that to be a great champion, one must be a great role model...and Miz isn't a great role model. As Miz and Maryse make fun of Backlund, Darren comes to Backlund's defense, and snatches the microphone away when Miz threatens him.



Sasha Banks is being checked on by officials in the trainer's room when Charlotte and Dana Brooke show up to tell Sasha that she's gotten her match at Battleground. Unfortunately for Sasha, it's a tag team match.



Seth Rollins guests on commentary for the next match...and then attacks Dean Ambrose before his match with Kevin Owens can really begin. Sami Zayn shows up to even the numbers game, and he and Ambrose clean house.

Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens beat Dean Ambrose and Sami Zayn.



Here are the top 10 moments from tonight's show!
