• SmackDown Results – John Cena & Charlotte Flair Return, New Champion Crowned
– Bray Wyatt kicked off tonight’s SmackDown and apologized to the camera man that he attacked last week.
LA Knight interrupted and claimed that Bray paid someone to dress up as Uncle Howdy last week, and issued a challenge for a match at Royal Rumble 2023.
Bray called LA an idiot and accepted his challenge. Uncle Howdy came out and got in the ring with both of them, and attacked Bray.
He laid him out with Sister Abigail.
