Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown Live recap for July 10, 2018

It's time for Miz TV. After The Miz plugs Miz and Mrs., which premieres in two weeks, tonight's guests are Team Hell No (Daniel Bryan and Kane). The Miz tells Daniel Bryan he is out here to be a professional, and asks Daniel to extend the same courtesy. After some words from Kane, Daniel abstains from punching Miz in the face and tells Miz he will be professional. Miz admits he thought he would never see Team Hell No reunite, comparing the event to a potential reunion of N*SYNC, and asks Daniel and Kane if they are ready for The Bludgeon Brothers (Harper and Rowan) at Extreme Rules. After saying that N*SYNC will never get back together because Justin Timberlake is too big a star, Kane says they know what The Bludgeon Brothers are capable of, but the Bludgeon Brothers are not Team Hell No. The Miz says that Team Hell No just might be the team to beat The Bludgeon Brothers, then we see the events of Team Hell No's initial run as well as the events that lead to Team Hell No's reunion. The Miz says that was not the footage he wanted to show, then Daniel Bryan tells The Miz that he knows that Miz is trying to stir the pot and that it is not working because The Miz is terrible at everything. He then says that the only thing Miz is worse at than stirring the pot is wrestling, and Miz responds by saying that Team Hell No will implode after Kane turns on Daniel Bryan, and that Daniel Bryan is hiding behind Kane because he cannot hang with him in the ring. Kane holds Daniel Bryan and tells him to breathe through the diaphragm to keep their focus on The Bludgeon Brothers. Miz tells Daniel Bryan to hide behind Kane one more time, and Miz gets grabbed by the throat in response. Suddenly, The Bludgeon Brothers show up, but so does SAnitY (Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe, Killian Dain). SAnitY, however, shows up from the crowd and attacks Team Hell No, and The Bludgeon Brothers team up with SAnitY until The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) show up.The New Day go on the attack, but SAnitY and The Bludgeon Brothers manage to overpower everyone.

Before the next match, Rusev and Aiden English show up. Rusev tells Styles that no matter how well he secures his house as well as himself, he will tear down the house that he built at Extreme Rules before celebrating on the greatest Rusev Day ever. Rusev and Aiden English then guest on commentary for the next match.

"The Phenomenal" AJ Styles beats "The Artist" Shinsuke Nakamura by disqualification after Rusev yanks Styles off the apron. After the match, Nakamura goes for a Kinshasa to Styles, but Jeff Hardy runs in to make the save for Styles and takes out both Rusev and Nakamura. General Manager Paige then shows up and makes a tag team match between the team of Styles and Jeff Hardy and the team of Nakamura and Rusev.

Rusev and "The Artist" Shinsuke Nakamura beat "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles and Jeff Hardy.

James Ellsworth tries his best to train for his match tonight backstage when Carmella shows up. Carmella tells Ellsworth to take care of Asuka tonight. Ellsworth says he's got it, then winks at her. Carmella then says that if Ellsworth winks at her again, she will give him a beating worse than the one she will give Asuka.

Before the next match, James Ellsworth says he knows he must be tempting, but tells the female Superstars surrounding the ring to show some restraint before saying that none of them are ready for Asuka while he is.

Asuka beats James Ellsworth in a lumberjack match advertised as "Battle of the Sexes II" after Asuka kicks Ellsworth into Carmella, knocking Carmella off the apron before locking in the Asuka Lock. After the match, Carmella gets in, but Asuka beats her up. When Asuka turns around, she gets sprayed in the face with hairspray by Ellsworth.

Backstage, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) tries to formulate a strategy with Team Hell No (Daniel Bryan and Kane), but Kane and Daniel Bryan argue over whether Kane should have let Daniel punch The Miz in the face. Big E puts the argument to a quick end, and immediately formulates a strategy that gets everyone on the same page and Kane to quote N*SYNC.

Backstage, James Ellsworth and Carmella are met by General Manager Paige. Ellsworth tries to get a kiss from Paige, but Paige tells Ellsworth that he will be in a shark cage suspended high above the ring in the SmackDown Women's Championship match at Extreme Rules.

Andrade "Cien" Almas beats Sin Cara.

A Tables Match between SAnitY (Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe, Killian Dain) and The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) is officially the kickoff match for Extreme Rules.

Backstage, we hear from SAnitY (Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe, Killian Dain). They are hear to break the status quo and turn happiness into havoc, and they are not here for the nostalgia. Eric Young says The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) and Team Hell No's (Daniel Bryan and Kane) time is up and that all that is left is unadulterated chaos. The Bludgeon Brothers (Harper and Rowan) then show up, and Rowan says "Let the bludgeoning begin."

The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) and Team Hell No (Daniel Bryan and Kane) beat SAnitY (Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe, Killian Dain) and The Bludgeon Brothers (Harper and Rowan). After the match, Daniel Bryan tries to do Kane's pyro. After three tries, he finally does it.
