Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown recap for November 11, 2022

The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) retain the undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships against The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) to become the longest-reigning tag team champions in WWE history.



Backstage, The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) celebrate backstage, and Roman Reigns says that is what being the greatest of all time is like. He then says it is time for him to handle business and that it will be handled live in the ring tonight with The Usos at his side.

Santos Escobar beats Shinsuke Nakamura with a super Phantom Driver to advance in the World Cup Tournament.



WWE acknowledges Veteran's Day.



Backstage, Megan Morant interviews LA Knight, who says that him not being in the World Cup is a major fumble. It is not long before Megan Morant and LA Knight see Bray Wyatt's images on the nearby TV screen. When LA Knight turns away from the screen, Megan is gone and Bray Wyatt is there. He says that he can see the anger and rage in LA Knight and says that he was told that his anger would make a monster out of him. He then says that he was once ashamed of what he did in the past, but he is not so sure anymore, and asks LA Knight how far he is willing to go. When LA Knight tells Bray to go back to the Firefly Fun House and that it is his game, Bray Wyatt headbutts him.



Shotzi beats Lacey Evans, Raquel Rodriguez, Liv Morgan, Sonya Deville and Xia Li in a Six-Pack Challenge to become #1 contender for the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship after Liv Morgan takes out Raquel and Sonya from off the barricade.



Backstage, Shotzi is met by Emma. Emma asks if Madcap Moss is around, and Shotzi thinks Emma has a crush on him. (In reality, Emma and Madcap Moss are dating.) Emma leaves, then Shayna Baszler shows up and tells Shotzi to enjoy her time in the spotlight, as Ronda Rousey will give her the beating of a lifetime. She also says that Shotzi wants a part of her body broken, but Shotzi says that Ronda has never faced someone like her and that she will prove she belongs when she beats Ronda and becomes champion. Shayna then tells Shotzi to turn around and say that to Ronda's face, and when Shotzi sees Ronda, Shayna chokes Shotzi out with a Kirifuda Clutch.



Backstage, Kayla Braxton interviews Ricochet. Ricochet says this is not just a chance to prove he is the best in the world, but another opportunity to get back what is his. He says that nobody knows Mustafa Ali better than him, then Imperium (Gunther, Ludwig Kaiser, Giovanni Vinci) shows up. Gunther tells Ricochet to fight with all of his heart, because he would love to beat him again.



Before the next match, Jinder Mahal says he is back, and tonight, he will begin his ascent to his rightful spot by winning the World Cup and becoming Intercontinental Champion. He says there is no man who can stop him, then Braun Strowman shows up.

The Bloodline (Roman Reigns, Paul Heyman, Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Solo Sikoa) heads to the ring. Paul Heyman says that The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) vs. The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) from earlier tonight is not a sports great rivalry as The New Day cannot compared to The Usos and that no team can. He also says that nobody can compare to Roman Reigns, then Roman Reigns says it is not being his cousin as everyone has always acknowledged him for his greatness. As he is about to compliment The Usos, Ridge Holland and Butch show up. Ridge says he and Butch are tired of The Bloodline using the numbers game every week, then says it is fight night and that they have back-up in the form of Sheamus. Sheamus says tonight is the start of the end of The Bloodline, but Roman Reigns laughs because Sheamus' mic keeps cutting in and out. Sheamus says he has no problem saying anything to his face, then both sides brawl in the ring. The Bloodline has the one-man advantage, but Drew McInytre shows up and becomes a one-man army. Drew McIntyre and Solo Sikoa brawl, then Roman attacks McIntyre before Sheamus attacks Roman. Both sides brawl to end the show.
