WWE hosted Smackdown in Orlando on Friday night.
Rey Mysterio defeats LA Knight, Sheamus and Cameron Grimes. At one point, Theory intervened, but Santos Escobar attacked him.
Rey will face Santos Escobar next week to fight for the US Championship at SummerSlam.
Charlotte Flair defeats IYO SKY.
After the fight, Asuka appears and attacks Charlotte.
Dominik Mysterio was interviewed behind the scenes. While he was talking, Butch cut him off and challenged Dom for the title tonight. Shawn Michaels showed up and made the fight official.
Santos Escobar defeats Austin Theory.
Bobby Lashley was shown in his dressing room being approached by Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams.
Dominik Mysterio retains the NXT North American Championship against Butch. Pretty Deadly was on the outskirts. Kit Wilson hit Holland from the outside and Butch stepped to the outside of the ring to even the odds. Wilson ran to the back, leaving Holland and Butch with Prince, who also ran to the back.
With Butch on the apron, Rhea hit a chop block and Dominik propelled Butch to the ring post, which was enough to give him the win.
Jey Uso and Roman Reigns enter the ring to set the terms for a confrontation between the two at SummerSlam. Jey assures that the confrontation must happen because Roman sent Jimmy Uso to the hospital and also breaks the contract, saying that the contract will cost him and blood and that it must be a tribal fight with anything going on, which enrages Roman, who eventually accepts.
Solo then tries to attack Jey with a Samoan Spike, but Roman stops him, which Jey uses to superkick his brother.
