WWE News: What happened after Smackdown went off the air?

A tag team dark match

Raw and Smackdown Live have always had dark matches that happen when the show goes off the air, where babyfaces always beat the heels to send the crowd home happy.

Last night on Raw, John Cena and AJ Styles were supposed to appear for the dark match, but they didn't show up. It is unclear as to why they did not appear if they were advertised since there is a legal obligation, but the show instead ended with Seth Rollins confused over what had transpired in the WWE Universal Championship Fatal Four Way match.

However, tonight on Smackdown Live after the show went off the air, there was a tag team dark match that took place between John Cena and Roman Reigns against Bray Wyatt and Seth Rollins. John Cena has not appeared on Smackdown Live television since after Summerslam, and it was clear before hand that he would not be appearing for a while since he is filming the second season of American Grit. However, it is being said that he will be appearing in dark matches and have a few other non-televised appearances.

The finish of the match saw Roman Reigns spearing Seth Rollins to clinch the victory for his team.
