WWE Live Event Results from Puebla, San Angelo(27/08)
WWE returned to Mexico for live events. More than the shows itself, what made headlines was Bo Dallas not being allowed on to a flight due to being intoxicated. There is no word at the moment as to whether this will affect Bo Dallas’ position or job in any way.
However, it isn’t that he was featured prominently on Raw anyway. But it shouldn’t be good news to WWE that the biggest exposure they are getting from their Mexico tour is of negative nature.
Puebla:
- Jey Uso def. Curtis Axel
- Apollo Crews def. Heath Slater
- Rusev def. Cesaro
- The New Day def. The Club
- Hype Bros def. Breezango
- Bayley def. Charlotte
- Roman Reigns def. Seth Rollins
Roman beating Seth indicates that the WWE is still high on him, which might reflect in the Fatal Fourway match for the WWE Universal Championship on Raw this week.
San Angelo
- Enzo & Big Cass def. The Vaudevillains
- The Miz def. Titus O'Neil and Darren Young
- Golden Truth & Sin Cara & Jack Swagger def. The Shining Stars & The Ascension
- Kane def. Baron Corbin
- Dolph Ziggler def. Sheamus
- Becky Lynch & Alicia Fox def. Natalya & Dana Brooke
- Chris Jericho def. Neville
- Dean Ambrose def. AJ Styles and Bray Wyatt
This Monday night will be the first time WWE Raw and Smackdown go head-to-head following the brand split, as Smackdown has its own live event taking place during Raw at The Four States Entertainment Center in Texarkana, AR.
Talents advertised for the Smackdown event include John Cena, WWE Champion Dean Ambrose, Randy Orton, AJ Styles and Bray Wyatt.
With regards to top stars appearing at both Raw and Smackdown Live tapings, which has been happening since the brand split, will stop after next week.
Smackdown live events will run from Saturday to Tuesday, and Raw will run from Friday to Monday. The reason that Smackdown Live superstars appeared on Raw dark matches and vice versa is that they were announced for these shows much before the draft took place, so WWE were legally obligated to ensure these stars appeared in some form or the other, otherwise the crowd would be obligated to a refund.
Some weeks ago, AJ Styles and John Cena even appeared during a commerical break on Raw for a two-minute segment.
It will be interesting to see how these live events go head to head. So far, Smackdown Live has been getting much more acclaim.
