Here are the results for the episode of WWE SmackDown airing on April 21, 2023. Did you miss the previous episode of Raw? You can catch up with the results here: 4/17
#1. Rey Mysterio & Santos Escobar vs. Finn Balor & Damian Priest — Winners: Judgment Day
Zelina Vega asks Adam Pearce if she can challenge Rhea Ripley for the SmackDown Women’s title at Backlash. She wants to represent Puerto Rico as the only Puerto Rican woman on the roster. Pearce says he will talk to Ripley and let her know.
We get a “King Shinsuke Nakamura” vignette before Karrion Kross cuts a promo about him. He says he hasn’t hurt anybody a day in his life. It was the cards. He took things away from the likes of Drew McIntyre, Madcap Moss, and Rey Mysterio, and now Shinsuke, they will take away his honor. Tick tock.
#2. Braun Strowman & Ricochet vs. The Viking Raiders (w/ Valhalla) — Winners: Strowman & Ricochet
#3. [Women’s Tag Team Championship] Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez (c) vs. Sonya Deville & Chelsea Green — Winners: Morgan & Rodriguez
#4. [Intercontinental Championship] Gunther (c) vs. Xavier Woods — Winner: Gunther retains by technical knockout via submission
The Usos are here and have something to say. They keep getting asked how they feel since losing their tag team titles at WrestleMania. Apparently they don’t know, dude. All they know is they are coming straight at you when they get their rematch. It’s a WrestleMania main event kinda rematch. They dedicate their victory to the Tribal Chief kind of rematch. Next week, the gold is coming back to The Bloodline. Tonight, Riddle will get taken down by the enforcer, Solo Sikoa.
#5. [No Disqualification] Solo Sikoa vs. Riddle — Winner: Solo Sikoa
The Usos predictably help Sikoa to win the match. Afterward, they destroy Riddle by putting him through a table with the 1D. Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens did not appear. And that’s all folks. See you for the draft next week.
