Layin' da SmackDown! - SmackDown recap for April 21, 2016

It's time for Miz TV. Tonight's guest is "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles. When The Miz asks if AJ Styles commanded Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson to attack Roman Reigns, he says no. Miz says that the "no" answer gave Gallows and Anderson permission to beat up Roman, but Styles says he doesn't need help to beat Roman Reigns at Payback. Miz still keeps insisting that Styles ordered an attack on Roman somehow and that his "no" answer is still an admission of guilt, and Maryse eggs him on to the point that the two of them make out. When Miz turns around, AJ hits him in the face with a forearm to end the segment.



Ryback beats Kalisto.



Baron Corbin attacks Dolph Ziggler from behind before their match can even begin...because he can.



AJ Styles beats The Miz after Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson keep Miz from retreating to the back.

Paige and Natalya beat Naomi and Tamina with a simultaneous Sharpshooter and PTO.



R-Truth beats Fandango in a very comedic match with Goldust as special guest referee. Goldust and R-Truth dance together after the match.



The Vaudevillains (Aiden English and Simon Gotch) and the team of Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady have a war of words. Aiden English says he's sick and tired of hearing words come out of Enzo's mouth, and says that Enzo and Cass have no poise. Both teams plan to continue to the finals of the #1 Contenders' Tag Team Tournament and face The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) for the WWE Tag Team Championships.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for March 7, 2016

Shane McMahon starts tonight's show. He recaps what happened last week, and says he's lost a respect for his father Vince after he disowned him, and calls him "an egomaniacal, miserable old bastard" who has seriously lost touch. He then says it is his destiny to own Raw and beat The Undertaker, saying that Vince's tyrannical grasp as well as that of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon must stop, and that there are more talent that are more deserving of a push that need it. We hear the gong of 'Taker's theme, followed by Vince's theme. Vince shows up, and the crowd calls him an asshole before chanting for CM Punk. Vince says there is fear in Shane's eyes, and that he will feel that fear at WrestleMania 32. After saying that Stephanie McMahon will get everything now that Shane is out of the will, Vince then talks about the night Shane went to his very first WWE event. We see a picture of father of son from way back when, then Vince takes a picture frame with said photo in it and smashes it with his foot. Vince also says that Shane's children will see him fail against The Undertaker, as a family's dreams will be shattered as 'Taker puts an end to what Vince calls "his greatest failure." Vince then sics security on Shane, and tell them to escort Shane out of the building. Shane says he'll leave peacefully as long as nobody touches him, as he says he's pretty amped up tonight. One guy gets close and tries to put a hand on them, and he gets kneed in the face. The other security guards get in the ring, but they all get beat down, too. Shane stands tall, and Vince is astounded.



Kevin Owens beat Neville with a roll-up. After the match, Owens continues to attack Neville, but that attack is cut short by the surprise appearance of Sami Zayn, who goes straight for Owens and gives him a brawl he'll never forget.



Dolph Ziggler is talking with Zack Ryder when Stephanie McMahon shows up. After talk about Shane McMahon - and a tweet that he was forced to delete due to it being "disaparaging to The Authority," Stephanie puts Dolph Ziggler in an elimination handicap match against three members of The League of Nations (Sheamus, Rusev, King Barrett, Alberto Del Rio).

Summer Rae beats Brie Bella with a roll-up after Lana shows up and distracts Brie. After the match, Lana hits Brie Bella with a Bella Buster.



Dean Ambrose shows up. He loves that he's thrown a wrench in the works on the Road to WrestleMania, and says he's hijacking the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and WrestleMania 32, and says Triple H will respect him after Roadblock. He says that he and Triple H will be doing stuff for the community together, and says Triple H will make him a suit only to realise he's not a suit guy. As soon as he says he'll be a fighting champion, Triple H shows up. He says the World Heavyweight Championship will be around his waist as long as he allows it to be. Dean Ambrose tells Triple H to suck it, but Triple H says "Roadblock" is just a name from marketing and that Ambrose is a speed bump or pothole at best. He also says Ambrose has the same problem with authority as Roman Reigns. After more insults tossed back and forth, Ambrose dares Triple H to get in the ring. Triple H says he'll do it only on his time, then puts Ambrose in a match later tonight against Bray Wyatt to teach him a lesson that "The Authority always wins."



The League of Nations (Sheamus, Rusev, King Barrett) beat Dolph Ziggler in a 3-on-1 elimination match.



We see a video package of Shane McMahon's history in the WWE.

R-Truth passes by Mark Henry on his way to give Goldust a Chicago deep dish pizza. Goldust doesn't know what's up, until Truth mentions the Golden Truth idea. Goldust then says a true partner would know that he is lactose intolerant, and if he took one bite, his butt would explode. Goldust puts the pizza down and walks away, and as R-Truth says he didn't know about Goldust's exploding butt, Mark Henry takes the pizza all for himself.



Before the next match, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) says that Y2AJ (Chris Jericho and AJ Styles) will never make it, and that they are a real team.

The Social Outcasts (Heath Slater, Adam Rose, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel) show up and make fun of Ryback for wanting to go solo. Curtis Axel says "The Axeman Cometh" before everyone does the "YI" chant.

This Thursday on SmackDown: Miz TV with Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens as special guests! Chris Jericho explains his actions!

Before the next match, Bray Wyatt appears on the TitanTron, saying he will conquer the conqueror and slay the beast by beating Brock Lesnar at Roadblock this Saturday. Tonight, however, he will use Dean Ambrose as an example of just how dangerous he can be and why he is called "The Eater of Worlds."

Dean Ambrose vs. Bray Wyatt ends with the arrival of the rest of The Wyatt Family (Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman). The four of them then destroy Ambrose. Triple H then shows up, loosens his tie and gets in the ring. Bray Wyatt stares Triple H down, however, and Triple H returns the favor by staring down Wyatt, who then laughs, looks at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and touches it, then backs away with his Family. Triple H then deconstructs the commentary table, but when he gets back in the ring, Ambrose hits Triple H with Dirty Deeds. He then picks up the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and looks at it as he stares down Triple H from the corner.

Instead, he gets Chris Jericho. Reigns is happy to see him, but he wants Lesnar.

Roman disagrees, and so does the WWE Universe. After some Daniel Bryan and CM Punk chants, Vince McMahon admits he worked the living crap out of his uncle Afa and his father Sika - the Wild Samoans - and lined his pockets with their money. All of a sudden, Roman pushes Vince, and Vince falls down, and Vince says his neck hurts.
