Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown recap for July 1, 2022

Omos, Drew McIntyre, Matt Riddle, Sami Zayn, Sheamus, and Seth Rollins are in the ring to start tonight's show. Everyone except Omos and MVP are sitting on top of a ladder. Rollins says everyone agrees that SummerSlam will be the best time for the winner to cash in. He also boasts about cashing in on both Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns, then Matt Riddle says he will cash in on Reigns. Sami Zayn says he is in this match and that the contract will stay with The Bloodline to save the undisputed World title. MVP says everyone in the ring and the match not named Omos is an idiot (excluding himself) and that none of them can stop Omos, whom he says will be the last man standing. Sheamus says he has been Mr. Money In The Bank and has cashed in successfully on Roman Reigns before, then admits Brock Lesnar is "a whole different ballgame for him." McIntyre says he has beaten Lesnar in five minutes and that he will win the contract. The Miz suddenly shows up and says that he cashed in the contract on McIntyre the last time he had it and that he should be in the Money In The Bank Ladder Match having been a two-time Money In The Bank winner. Ezekiel suddenly shows up and introduces himself before stating he was supposed to have a qualifying match with Kevin Owens tonight, and if anyone deserves to be in the match, it is him. Happy Corbin shows up and says Ezekiel is as dumb as his brother and that he has won the contract before, and that nobody is as lucky as him. Madcap Moss then shows up and says Corbin squandering the contract again is hysterical. Moss then says Corbin will not have the chance to embarrass himself when he takes the final spot in the match, then WWE official Adam Pearce shows up and sets up a battle royal with everyone in and outside of the ring right now.

Happy Corbin last eliminates Sheamus and Drew McIntyre after having slid out of the ring through the bottom rope to win a "good old-fashioned battle royal."

Backstage, Kayla Braxton interviews Happy Corbin, who says he is so happy that he is "farting rainbows" following how he won tonight's battle royal. He brags about the look on people's faces after winning and how people will not stop talking about it. When Kayla Braxton asks him about Pat McAfee's challenge for a match, however, Happy Corbin becomes silent and changes his tune.

Backstage, Megan Morant interviews Natalya, who laughs and says that all "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey has left is talk and that she sees nothing but fear in her eyes, as she knows the Sharpshooter hurt her and that Ronda is not at 100%. She says that Ronda can make fun of her all she wants, but she will take her down and be the first person to make Ronda tap out to the Sharpshooter and become a two-time SmackDown Women's Champion.

Before the next match, The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) talk about how they gave the fans a dancing Shanky until The Viking Raiders (Ivar and Erik) ruined a good time. Xavier Woods says it was not a good Viking experience and Kofi Kingston says The Viking Raiders are dangerous now. Woods says it is time to get dangerous, and Kofi calls The Viking Raiders out. The New Day hand The Viking Raiders the microphones only to drap the microphones halfway through the hand-off, and this starts a brawl where The New Day are quickly overpowered as The Viking Raiders use their shield as weapons. The Viking Raiders leave, but then get back in the ring to hit Kofi Kingston with a double choke slam before stacking Xavier Woods on top of him.

Backstage, WWE official Adam Pearce puts The Miz, Madcap Moss, Happy Corbin and Ezekiel in a Fatal 4-Way match where the winner qualifies for the men's Money In The Bank Ladder Match.

Before the next match, Becky Lynch arrives and says nothing special happens until she shows up, then says she is sitting this match out and that everyone will have to wait until Money In The Bank to fight as she knows everyone wants to take her out. Becky Lynch then guests on commentary for the next match.

Asuka, Liv Morgan and Alexa Bliss beat Shotzi, Lacey Evans and Raquel Rodriguez in a six-woman tag match. After the match, Becky Lynch drops Asuka with a Manhandle Slam.

Backstage, Sonya Deville meets with WWE official Adam Pearce and says that she has filed a formal complaint over last week's match before slapping him in the face.

The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) head to the ring. The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) are in the ring after the commercial break, and Kayla Braxton moderates a face-to-face meeting where fan questions are answered. When asked how fearful they are of losing the tag team titles and how Roman Reigns will react if they loses, The Usos say that they are confident because they run all the shows. Montez Ford laughs and says Roman Reigns runs the show and Angelo Dawkins states that The Usos run to the grocery store. When asked if they have lost their killer instinct after eighteen months without championship gold and if they are getting along, The Street Profits kill rumors of not getting along, and Montez says they have a killer instinct in every match against The Usos. Montez says they know about the legacy and that as much as The Usos' family legacy has prepared The Usos for anything, they are not ready for The Street Profits and that they are taking the tag team titles and ending The Usos' legacy. Jey tells Montez to be careful what comes out of his mouth, and Jimmy and Jey agree that while The Street Profits are like them, they are not them, and they want the smoke on Saturday. Angelo says they will beat their asses tomorrow and become tag team champions in a spot of catchphrase stealing.

Backstage, Max Dupri is excited for the long-awaited debut of Maximum Male Models.

Max Dupri is in the ring. He introduces the fans to Maximum Male Models, then introduces Mace, who has now found his love of fashion. Mace shows up and walks up and down the red carpet for photos. The next model is Mansoor, and he too goes up and down the red carpet for photos. He then says that unless one has the qualities of Mace and Mansoor, one should not even bother trying to join Maximum Male Models.

Backstage, Megan Morant interviews "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey, who says her baby is nine months old, not ten, and that Natalya can expect her to tap her out tomorrow.
