Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown recap for June 9, 2016

The Club (AJ Styles, Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson) start the show. Styles says Money In The Bank is being compared to WrestleMania and could be the best one yet, especially when he has a dream match against John Cena, and with SmackDown going live, this could be the last time we see one of these kinds of match-ups. He says the last decade has been the "Cena era," and he plans to change that himself. He says that The Club has dominated every place in the world that they have been, and Money In The Bank will be no different. Suddenly, Enzo Amore and Big Cass show up. Big Cass says that "the Mr. Clean dream team" in The Club winning the tag titles isn't going to happen, and that they're taking the belts. Karl Anderson says that Enzo and Cass aren't in the same league, but Enzo and Cass don't care. The Club start making fun of Enzo and Cass, but Enzo says he and Big Cass are all in and if The Club want to roll the dice, they'll beat the crap out of them.

Renee Young interviews Lana and Rusev. Lana says Rusev is not backing down from Titus O'Neil, whom Rusev says has no idea what being a champion is while putting himself in the same breath as Muhammad Ali. Titus O'Neil shows up and says the WWE United States Championship will be his after Money In The Bank.

Black Lotus tells Dario Cueto that El Dragon Azteca, Jr. knows where Matanza is kept, but he stopped him from killing him. However, if she finds out that he lied about El Dragon Azteca killing her parents, he will have to answer to him and the entire Black Lotus Clan. Dario Cueto tells her he's the only one to tell her the truth. He then tells her she is in a match against El Dragon Azteca, Jr. at Ultima Lucha, and if she wins, she can bring his mask to the Black Lotus Triad and her parents can finally rest in peace.

Marty "The Moth" Martinez vs. Killshot ends in a double count-out when the entire match takes place outside of the ring. Marty gets a swift kick after the match, and Killshot almost gets his dogtags back, but Marty takes them back after outsmarting him.
