WWE taped this week’s episode of WWE Smackdown from Fort Wayne, Indiana before a pretty decent crowd that seemed excited for the show.
–The Miz and Damien Mizdown come out to start the show with Miz TV. Big Show was supposed to be their guest for the segment, but Daniel Bryan made a surprise return and announced himself as the general manager for tonight’s episode. He put Seth Rollins in a match with Ryback, and title matches for Luke Harper and Rusev.
(1) United States Championship 20-Man Battle Royal. Rusev retained over the other entrants, which were the Miz, Mizdow, Big Show, Eric Rowan, Jack Swagger, Heath Slater, Titus O’Neil, Stardust, Goldust, Justin Gabriel, Sin Cara, Adam Rose, Tyson Kidd, Los Matadores, Cesaro, and the Uso Brothers (thanks to ProWrestling.net).
