#1 The Usos vs The New Day vs Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin vs Aiden English and Rusev- (Smackdown Live Tag Team Titles)
The evening kicked off with a solid four-way tag team match with the Smackdown Live Tag Titles on the line, as brothers Jimmy and Jey Uso had the uphill battle of facing off against four of Smackdown’s top teams.
Kofi Kingston and Big E represented The New Day in this match, as former US Champion Rusev got the loudest pop from the WWE Universe on Rusev Day, whereas, The Usos were also hugely over as well.
The match itself was fast paced and had some fun spots, as both Jimmy and Jey eventually retained their tag title after superkicking everyone and pinning Aiden English for the win.
Result: The Usos def. The New Day, Gable & Benjamin, and Rusev & English to retain the Smackdown Live Tag Team Titles.
#2 Mojo Rawley vs Tye Dillinger
Next up, we had the first singles match of the evening as Mojo Rawley squared off against “The Perfect 10” Tye Dillinger, who tried his best to get over with the crowd, even though he did not get much of a strong response.
Rawley picked up the win on Dillinger following a sunset flip pin reversal while holding the ropes as “The Perfect 10” suffered a disappointing loss, to say the least.
Result: Mojo Rawley def. Tye Dillinger
