Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown recap for December 13, 2019

King Corbin shows up to start tonight's show. Dolph Ziggler is already in the ring, and security is already stationed around the ring. Corbin and Ziggler make fun of the the stench of the dog food they dumped all over Roman Reigns last week, then Corbin says that he has had an incredible year in 2019. Corbin then says he will finish humiliating Roman at TLC and use everything in his disposal - tables, ladders and chairs - and make Roman "bow down to his king." He then says SmackDown will be his to rule as sole leader when he puts Roman in his place. Corbin then says he has seen all the promos of Roman Reigns coming to tonight's show "unchained," then says that a scared little dog runs away when unchained. He then says that if Roman does show up, he will show up to a fate far worse than last week. Corbin then says that Roman will not be showing up, and that the entire locker room approves of what he did last week. He then says that Ziggler will speak on the locker room's behalf. Ziggler says that for once in his life, Roman was the locker room leader that he said he was only for Corbin to put him down. Corbin says it is the dawn of a new day, and that anyone who stands in his and Ziggler's way will be forced to bow down. As Ziggler asks everyone to hail Corbin, The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Big E) show up. Big E says he and Kofi could not help but overhear Corbin talking about "ruling an imaginary kingdom" and uttering their name, then Corbin mocks Kofi losing the WWE Championship to Brock Lesnar. Kofi then says he still considers himself a champion of the people - something he is proud of - and while he admits that Corbin had a good year, he had a better one as WWE Champion. Kofi then says he did not whine and complain on social media after losing the WWE title, and that he picked himself up, dusted himself off and kept moving forward, and now The New Day are seven-time tag team champions. The New Day get in the ring, and Kofi tells Corbin that he walks around "looking stupid," but if Corbin was a real king, he would carry himself with pride, dignity and class, none of which he is capable. Kofi calls what Corbin did to Roman last week "disrespectful," then Corbin makes fun of Kofi out loud with Ziggler. Kofi slaps Corbin and says he knows Corbin can hear him now, and Corbin says that if Kofi wants to step up like Roman, he will be humiliated like Roman.

Kofi Kingston vs. King Corbin is official for later tonight.

Backstage, King Corbin and Dolph Ziggler find some members of security laid out and everything strewn about in the locker room.

Kayla Braxton interviews Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross. Alexa says that she doesn't know why Mandy Rose takes things personally, then she and Nikki are attacked by Fire and Desire (Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville). Both teams then brawl on the stage until referees separate both teams.

Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross beat Fire and Desire (Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville).

Backstage, Sami Zayn is met by Heavy Machinery (Tucker and Otis), who have a present for Sami as part of a Secret Santa gift exchange. Inside the present is a Christmas ham, which Sami calls the worst present he has ever gotten in his life due to his being vegan. Otis says sorry, but Sami says that is not good enough and asks Tucker how he deals with Otis, who he calls "a dumb oaf." Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura show up as things get heated, and they and Sami leave before Cesaro throws the ham on the floor.

The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) beat Shorty G and Mustafa Ali.

Backstage, Kayla Braxton interviews Bayley. Bayley says Lacey Evans may impress some people, but that means nothing to her, and that she does everything she does in the ring for herself now. She says that she and Sasha Banks - who is out recording a hip hop album - are the best and that Lacey picked a fight with the wrong people. Suddenly, Elias plays his guitar, and Bayley gets irritated with him. Elias then plays a song with Bayley as part of the Secret Santa gift exchange going on backstage in which he proceeds to make fun of Bayley. Bayley tells Dana Brooke to stop being a groupie and meet her in the ring if she thinks this is funny. Dana accepts her challenge.

Bayley beats Dana Brooke.

We hear from Sheamus, who says that SmackDown used to be a home to fighters, warriors and champions, but is now a home to wimps and weaklings. He says that there is no heart, but he is returning to bring heart back and crush anyone who stands in his way.

In footage from earlier today, Renee Young interviews The Miz. The Miz says he has no idea where Daniel Bryan is, and that he and Daniel bring out the best and worst in each other and that he understands how important Daniel is to SmackDown. He says he may not like him, but he respects him, and it is time to do the right thing. He says that Bray Wyatt likes to play mind games, and that Bray Wyatt crossed a line. He says he cannot get the image of the photo out of his head and that he had to accept his challenge. He says that while Wyatt has changed Superstars, he has been changed, but in a different way due to the growth of his family. Suddenly, Maryse calls out for Miz, who has gotten a strange video from Bray Wyatt of Mercy the Buzzard, Huskus the Pig Boy and Abby the Witch with their daughter Monroe. They check on Monroe, and find a strange doll that they do not recognize. Miz prematurely ends the interview. Shortly afterwards, we see the doll in the Firefly Fun House as well as Bray Wyatt, who says he was just trying to be nice, as it is the holiday season. He says he understands how much Miz loves his family, then says that Miz exposed himself when he was too busy exposing what happened to Daniel Bryan. Bray Wyatt then says that he was broken, but that he fixed himself by training himself to not feel pain at all and that Miz can train himself not to feel love before telling Miz he can teach him if he lets him in.

Backstage, King Corbin and Dolph Ziggler find the men who hold up Corbin's throne laid out.

Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura beat Heavy Machinery (Tucker and Otis).

Kofi Kingston vs. Baron Corbin ends in a no-contest after Dolph Ziggler attacks Big E after getting ejected, leading Corbin to attack Kofi as Kofi goes after Ziggler. After referees show up to break up the brawl, Big E gets in the ring and challenges Corbin and Ziggler to a tag team match.

The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Big E) beats King Corbin and Dolph Ziggler after Corbin handcuffs Kofi. After the match, Corbin and Ziggler tie Kofi to the ring post like they did to Roman Reigns last week. As Corbin readies the dog food, The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) show up and hit Big E with the Shatter Machine, then Roman Reigns shows up. Roman Reigns fights off all of the members of security as well as The Revival and Ziggler. Corbin strikes with his staff, but Roman hits him with a Superman Punch, then takes Corbin's scepter and dog food only to be superkicked by Ziggler. Ziggler readies a ladder as The Revival hold Roman down on the announce table, but Roman Reigns overpowers The Revival and tosses Ziggler into the table. Roman Reigns then helps Kofi Kingston off the ring post.

Here are the top moments from tonight's show!
