Steve Notes Smackdown 11/20/20
Big E tells the Profits the New Day are great, the profits say the ND is gonna catch an ass whuppin, Big E says the New Day is HERE tonight
New Day come out, drop a promo on Profits, do an Undertaker homage, interrupted by Zayn, who says WWE is trying to protect Taker cuz Zayn wants payback from MSG- New Day say Zayn looks like a newly single dad about to move into a studio apartment-
Baron interrupts, says stuff
Dolph and Roode interrupt, they say stuff, long story short, New Day entice those two teams to have a match against each other, instead, Roode and Dolph attack New Day, which brings down Profits to help out (WHERE TF IS BIG E?)… COMMERCIAL CLIFFHANGER
Back from commercial… 8 MAN!
Profits/ND vs. Corbin/Zayn/Roode/Dolph
Oh wow, Kofi killed Ford with a springboard fun splash off the corner as we have our COMMERCIAL CLIFFHANGER
Team Heels starts to break down as Roode chop-tags in Zayn, who argues but gets dragged in by Dawkins, and eats a splash from Ford, who pins for 3
***
This was a convoluted by decently effective way to sell the tag match at Series
Gentleman Haircut Daniel Bryan Interview- Zayn rolls through arguing with the ref- Zayn says is this funny to you? Do you think you’re better than me? He berates Bryan, who SLAPS the shit out of Zayn, who says I don’t forget, this isn’t over
Actual interview- Kayla says great haircut- she asks about the Jey Uso incident- roll footage- are you concerned about coming back so soon?
I saw the interview- he said it was nothing personal- I believe him- because he’s got a devil on his shoulder, telling him what to do- everybody has an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other- and right now, who do you think is speaking louder to me? Who’s reminding me about all the bad shit I went through- If jey is listening- nothing personal.
SCRAP IRON- UGH ITS FUCKING OTIS ON THE TEAM WHY NOT BIG E?
Rollins promo on Murphy- you were nobody, I saved you and gave you a new life and I’m responsible for everything good in your life. And in return, I get STABBED in the back.
Natalya vs. Tamina with Bianca on commentary
Bayley comes out, named to Team SD by Scrap Iron
Bayley claims she’s the captain!
Riott Squad looks on backstage
Natalya wins, Bayley congratulates her. The other members of Team SD come in, Bayley kinda like, arranges them and they all pose.
Contract signing
Scrap Iron says his job is simple, have both men sign the contract.
ROman says I believed you could do it- I’ve been in your shoes
Drew: I won the title, for me, not you. He signs, hands the contract over- but grips it when Roman takes it- Drew says here’s some advice- use these last two days of peace to prepare for war.
Roman signs- you’re gonna give me advice. The special counsel advises the tribal chief- I give YOU advice. So I’m gonna allow you to sit under the learning tree- one last lesson- on sunday at survivor series- you’re not gonna like it, you’re not gonna like the brutal truth- but that is you are the secondary title holder, a prop, a stand in, ROman’s busy, let Drew do it, he’ll do it. I’m the champion, the face of WWE. One day you’ll have the opportunity to be the face, the champion- and when you do, you’re gonna look back at these nights and you’re gonna thank me. One day you’re gonna love me for these lessons, and I’ll love you back. Because you’ll always be my favorite number 2. Then Paul picks up the title and the velcro audibly tears reminding us that Vince prefers velcro over buttons.
Seth Rollins vs. Murphy
Rollins attacks the Mysterios, sends Murphy into barricade, Alayah collapses as we go to COMMERCIAL CLIFFHANGER
Rollins hits stomp as Murphy is draped over second rope, but it takes forever for Rollins to get to him, Murphy gets his foot on the rope, then buckle bomb, goes for Stomp, Murphy kills him with knee, and again, MURPHY’S LAW BUT HE CAN’T GET THE COVER BUT GETS 3!!!!!
