Oh boy, it's ALMOST time! Last night we saw the final Smackdown before Summer Slam and we have SO much to talk about. Tonight is said to be one of the BIGGEST Summer Slams yet.. But before we get to that, let's talk about last night. Let's get into it!
-We started off Smackdown last night with Solo and Cody. They made their way to the ring and gave a promo on each other and their match tonight. However, it wasn't long until things got a little dicey. The Bloodline made themselves known, and in the end Cody agreed to a Bloodline Rules match. So we know there will be some extra faces during that match. Roman? Jimmy? Jey and Sami? The Rock? So many opportunities to unfold with that.
-Andrade vs Carmelo Hayes
We got round 2! This match was one of my favorites! Both men work so well together, and if I am being selfish, I would love to see it again. Them working together would be good too? A tag team maybe? I was however a little shocked when Andrade won a 2nd time. You could for sure see the sadness/disappointment in Melo. I really hope there is a turn around for Hayes, as he is really good and over.
Apollo Crews vs Santos Escobar
I wanted to like this match, I really did. However, it just wasn't that great. It wasn't long enough, and honestly I felt it was lack luster. I wouldn't be opposed to seeing another match between the two.. maybe just a little longer. Santos got the win, but of course he had help from his team.
We knew we would be seeing Logan Paul tonight in a big fashion, and of course that delivered. Paul came out and revealed a champ banner.. however it had been defaced by LA Knight. I thought this was too funny. Major boos for the "hometown boy" last night. We saw at the start of the show that Logan came in his Prime truck. It wasn't long until we saw LA Knight taking the truck for a spin, leaving Paul to chase after him. This was too funny and I REALLY hope we are getting a NEW champ tonight. Can you imagine that pop??
Isla Dawn/Alba Fyre vs Belair/Jade
I was FULLY expecting to hear NEW champs tonight, however this just wasn't the case. While I do love Isla/Alba, I feel like they aren't booked properly. They've had maybe.. one or two matches since they won?And their promos have been less than great lately. I hope they can pull it together before they drop the titles. I feel like they will lose them to Belair/Cargill in the near future. In a strange turn of events, it was Blair Davenport that appeared and attacked Cargill to cause a DQ. Not the best way to end a match, but maybe this will go somewhere. Didn't she have a feud with Naomi? Can you say trios match?
DIY vs The Bloodline (Tag Titles)
Do I even really have to talk about this? As soon as the women's tag titles were retained.. I knew it was over. Why even put the titles on DIY if they were going to lose them so quickly? I don't feel like these were earned, just given. Regardless...Jacob ended up picking up the win for the titles.
The show ended by Solo having the titles on his shoulders.
Overall: 6.9/10

-We didn't see Nia/Bayley.. does this mean the title will be changed? We did however see Nia present Tiffy with a new case.
-LA Knight has the momentum to win the title, but will it happen??
-With the Bloodline Rules match, we are guaranteed to see a return or two? Will one of them be Roman?There is NO WAY Solo is winning this match.... right??
-Triple H said this Summer Slam will be one of the biggest yet... such a loaded statement!
