We bring you coverage for the episode of WWE SmackDown airing on March 29, 2024.
#1. Randy Orton & Kevin Owens vs. Pretty Deadly – Winners: Pretty Deadly with an assist from Logan Paul
The crowd tells Randy Orton that Logan Paul hid under the ring. After finding him, Orton takes it to Paul, although Pretty Deadly get involved. Kevin Owens helps Orton with a stunner on one, and the other gets the RKO. Logan runs away as Randy gives chase to the backstage area. Paul jumps in a car and drives away.
Iyo Sky explains why Bayley began Damage CTRL. She started it because she was lost, so she got her and Dakota Kai into the spotlight so she could take credit for their success. While she admits Bayley helped her win the title, it was her who kept Bayley relevant. Damage CTRL outgrew Bayley, and she will prove it at WrestleMania. When the vignette is over, Bayley brutally assaults Iyo. The production crew do their best to keep them apart.
Back in the ring, Nick Aldis has a contract in hand. When he became SmackDown General Manager, he had one goal. To put on the best product and make SmackDown the best show. With the latest signing, he takes the brand one step further. He is happy to introduce Jade Cargill. After making her entrance, she signs the contract.
On the microphone, Cargill says it is about damn time. She wants to make herself crystal clear. We have one of the best female rosters in the world. But, they are not Jade Cargill. They are not the headline. They are not a once in a lifetime superstar. The Storm has arrived.
#2. [WrestleMania Tag Team Qualifier] Street Profits vs. Grayson Waller & Austin Theory – Winners: Waller & Theory
Final Testament attacks Bobby Lashley and B-Fab backstage, which distracts Street Profits enough for them to lose. After the match, the Authors Of Pain blindside them. Karrion Kross joins them to direct traffic. A hurt Bobby Lashley makes his way to the ring. He takes down Kross, but is overwhelmed by the numbers. Kross tells Lashley that none of them are going to WrestleMania. He failed them and himself.
After the break, Legado Del Fantasma is in the ring. Santos Escobar gloats about beating Rey Mysterio last week. He was the greatest luchador of all time. He outsmarted him, and all it took was one phone call. Dominik Mysterio makes his entrance. He tries to talk, but the crowd drowns him out. The whole LWO stable interrupts him.
Rey Mysterio says if Dominik wants to be involved, he will be happy to get his own back on the pair of them. He challenges them to a tag match at WrestleMania with a partner of his choosing. Dominik asks who it will be, and Rey says it will be the newest member of the LWO, Dragon Lee. A fight breaks out between the LWO and Legado Del Fantasma. After the break, a match begins.
#3. [WrestleMania Tag Team Qualifier] New Catch Republic’s Pete Dunne & Tyler Bate vs. Legado Del Fantasma’s Angel & Berto – Winners: New Catch Republic
After a recap of what The Rock did to Cody Rhodes, The Bloodline send a warning to Jey Uso.
AJ Styles is in the ring with a microphone. At WrestleMania, he is going to expose LA Knight for the piece of trash that he is. Nick Aldis said LA Knight wouldn’t be here, but AJ knows he is here, so he challenges him to show up. He checks a cameraman to ensure it isn’t him. A guy jumps the barricade and is grabbed by security, but it isn’t him. It turns out that LA Knight was dressed up as one of the security guys. He attacks AJ Styles until The Phenomenal One bails through the crowd.
#4. Bianca Belair vs. Dakota Kai – Winner: Bianca Belair
