The New Day eat pancakes and answer fan questions on Twitter in the locker room.
Backstage, "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles runs into "The Artist" Shinsuke Nakamura. Nakamura tells him he will beat him at WrestleMania, then walks away. Styles shrugs it off.
Charlotte Flair beats Liv Morgan with the Figure Eight after Ruby Riott and Sarah Logan are ejected from the match for getting involved. After the match, Charlotte tells commentary "One down...two to go."
Renee Young is in front of Kevin Owens' dressing room door when Owens comes out. Owens says it is up to Sami Zayn and whether or not Sami can handle losing to him if their friendship endures.
The Bludgeon Brothers (Harper and Rowan) beat two unnamed opponents. After the match, The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) show up. The Usos give The Bludgeon Brothers almost the same treatment that The Bludgeon Brothers gave them last week, and walk past The Bludgeon Brothers as they enter the ring for the next match.
Before the next match, The Usos tell the crowd about what being locked down is all about. Instead of the traditional prison system experience, they talk about a state of mind, where the prison is mental instead of physical. They talk about the hunger of success and the thirst of being in the spotlight, as well as how nobody paid attention to them until they dropped their facepaint and bright colors for their current appearance.
The first-ever SmackDown Live Top 10 List is here.
10. "The Perfect Ten" Tye Dillinger
9. Randy Orton
8. Becky Lynch
7. The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso)
6. The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods)
5. Bobby Roode
4. Naomi
3. "The Artist" Shinsuke Nakamura
2. Charlotte Flair
1. "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles
The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) is not happy about placing 6th on the SmackDown Live Top 10.
We hear from Aiden English. He says the mat is covered in canvas because that is where art takes place. He may be a singer, but Rusev is a very different animal. He tells Bobby Roode to prepare to lose the United States title, for Rusev is ready for his magnum opus.
Aiden English mocks Kansas City, Missouri through song as he introduces Rusev before the next match.
obby Roode retains the WWE United States Championship against Rusev. After the match, Bobby Roode is hit with an RKO out of nowhere, then hits Aiden English and Rusev with RKOs as well.
We hear from Shelton Benjamin and Chad Gable, who call Breezango (Tyler Breeze and Fandango) "buffoons in costumes" and "clowns solving mysteries." They want to bring prestige back to the SmackDown Live tag team division, and wonder why Breezango is still part of it. If Breezango have the jokes, they have the punchlines. Last week, they targeted Breezango. This week, they target The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor). That match is next.
Shelton Benjamin and Chad Gable beat The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor).
The New Day answer more fan questions on Twitter in the locker room. Xavier Woods and Big E agree that Kofi Kingston would be #1 on the SmackDown Live Top 10 if they were all ranked individually. Kofi says that he would vote for Woods and Big E in the Top 10.
Renee Young interviews Sami Zayn. Sami says it is his opportunity to step out of Owens' shadow, as Owens has won all the championships while he has never won one. He says that is fine as they are best friends. However, they have faced each other constantly, and both of them have each other well-scouted. Owens does not know if their friendship will survive, but neither does he.
Next week: Dolph Ziggler vs. Baron Corbin!
"The Phenomenal" AJ Styles guests on commentary for the next match.
Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn ends when "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles attacks both Sami and Owens on commentary when Sami gets in his face while asking him if he is seeing what is going to happen to Kevin Owens. After the match, Styles continues to attack both men, then General Manager Daniel Bryan shows up and declares that Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens will face AJ Styles in a Triple Threat Match for the WWE Championship at Fastlane.
Here are the top 10 moments from tonight's show!
