WWE Smackdown Results (7/18): Charlotte Flair vs Becky Lynch, Jinder Mahal Reveals the Punjabi Prison, Styles & Nakamura Team Up

Jimmy Uso vs. Kofi Kingston

Kofi backed the champion into the corner and put the boots to him as soon as the bell rings, with Woods blurting along on his trombone with every kick. He did a little twerking just to enrage Jimmy, then sent him flying over the ropes to add injury to insult. The New Day taunted over him on the outside as they cut to commercial. During the break The Usos got a bit of revenge by attacking Kofi from behind, then spent several minutes working him over in the ring. Kofi struggled from of a hold and tried to mount a comeback but got caught with a big enzuigiri to put him back down. Jimmy charged him in the corner but got caught with a jumping double foot stomp to finally give Kingston some space. He fired off with strikes and kicks, setting up for Trouble in Paradise, but Uso caught him out of the air and dumped him into the top turnbuckle with a Death Valley Driver. Both guys slowly fought to the top rope and jockeyed for position and it was Kofi who got the advantage. Jey Uso got on the apron and was chased off by the other members of the New Day, but it gave Jimmy enough time to roll through a diving crossbody and rollup Kofi for the pin. // Winner: Jimmy Uso

– Shane McMahon was backstage with the women’s division. He hyped the five-way elimination match at Battleground before asking which Superstars wanted to give the audience a good performance here tonight. Basically everyone said they wanted to fight Lana, prompting Tamina Snuka to scream at them to back off. Natalya tried to stir the pot and suggested that Charlotte fight Becky Lynch, which led to some bickering between the two. Charlotte claimed that she’d beaten Becky every time they were in the ring together, and Shane said he wanted to see them go at so he made the match official.

– Still to come, Chad Gable will comment on his former American Alpha tag team partner being revealed as Kurt Angle’s son.
