WWE SmackDown Results June 4th, 2019: Winners, Grades, Video Highlights for latest SmackDown Live
The New Day kicked off SmackDown Live and Big E was still missing. Kofi Kingston got emotional while talking about his trip to his hometown of Ghana for the first time in 30 years and Dolph Ziggler interrupted him. Ziggler had a video package of his own and although he said he respected Kofi, he said that he deserved the title more than Kofi.
Kofi, in turn, played a video of Dolph leaving the United States Championship and walking out. Kofi said Dolph would have deserved it, but he was a quitter. The crowd chanted 'Quitter' over and over while Dolph showed us a video of his attacks on Kofi from recent weeks before saying, "Friday it will be me", and walking off.
