Smackdown Hotel! - Thursday Night SmackDown recap for March 10, 2016
Tonight's show begins with Miz TV. Tonight's special guests are Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens. Sami Zayn is the first person to be introduced. The Miz wants to know "Who is Sami Zayn?" As soon as Sami talks about himself, however, Miz cuts him off, wanting to know about his rivalry with Kevin Owens. As before, Sami Zayn doesn't know when the rivalry between him and Owens started, especially given their friendship together. The Miz introduces Kevin Owens, who shows up on his own time and says he did what he did in NXT to further his career, and has nothing to do with their history. However, he says what Sami Zayn did on Monday was personal, and that he is the victim, not Sami. Sami says he's here to stay, and his first order of business is to take the Intercontinental Championship from Owens at WrestleMania 32. Kevin Owens tells him this isn't NXT, this is The Kevin Owens Show, and that it just won't be happening. When Sami challenges Owens right here and now, Owens calls Sami Zayn delusional, and is about to leave when Neville shows up. Neville tells Owens they have some unfinished business, and that the Intercontinental Championship would look good around his waist. The Miz butts in, saying this is his show, that Neville is not an approved guest and that he should be the one getting a shot at the title considering that he's main evented WrestleMania. Zayn tells him to stay out of this, as this doesn't concern him and his days of main eventing WrestleMania are far, far behind him. The Miz then attacks Sami Zayn from behind, but Zayn fights back, tossing The Miz out of the ring.
Sami Zayn and Neville beat The Miz and Kevin Owens when Owens leaves Miz high and dry.
Goldust and R-Truth meet in the bathroom again. This time, the roles are reversed, but at least R-Truth has the toilet paper ready for Goldust...who still says no to Truth's attempt and bringing Golden Truth together.
Lana guests on commentary for the next match.
Brie Bella beats Summer Rae with the Yes Lock. After the match, Summer tries to attack Brie, but gets a forearm followed by a running knee to the face after Summer is leaning on the ropes. When Brie turns around after the knee, however, Lana hits her with another Bella Buster.
Chris Jericho shows up with a "Y2AJ" shirt and places it atop a garbage can. Jericho says he is sick of the "AJ Styles" chants, and that this is why he turned on AJ Styles on Monday night. Jericho says he's done so much for WWE and has never gotten hurt once in 17 years, and yet everyone still chants for AJ. He tells all the AJ Styles fans to go to hell, and says he is "the only thing" as he keeps hearing about "the next big thing." He then announces he will stand and watch AJ Styles' WWE career wither and burn, then puts gasoline in the garbage can, and then lights the Y2AJ shirt on fire as he dumps it in the can as he says that AJ's career is going down in flames and that AJ burned him.
The Milwaukee Bucks are in the front row tonight.
The League of Nations (King Barrett and Sheamus) beats The Lucha Dragons (Sin Cara and Kalisto) after Rusev interferes behind the referee's back. After the match, Jojo interviews Ryback, who has watched the match from backstage. Ryback takes the opportunity to belittle The Lucha Dragons over their size, saying that two little men can't beat two big men and that he's genetically superior.
Renee Young interviews The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso), who have no respect for their former idols, The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley), after what they've done to them as of late. Dean Ambrose and Dolph Ziggler show up, and tonight, they're not focused on The Authority. They're focused on The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman).

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for February 8, 2016 - Daniel Bryan's Retirement!
On tonight's pre-show, it is reported that Daniel Bryan has announced on Twitter that due to medical reasons, he is announcing his retirement, and that more details are to come later tonight.
We see a video tribute to Daniel Bryan.
Stephanie McMahon starts the show. After shrugging off the "Daniel Bryan" chants, she talks about the Triple Threat Match at Fastlane to decide who faces Triple H and WrestleMania 32. Dean Ambrose shows up and tells Stephanie to get straight to the point and start the contract signing, and calls out Brock Lesnar. Stephanie tries to restore order when Roman Reigns shows up. Roman asks what the hold-up is. Stephanie then introduces Brock Lesnar, who shows up with Paul Heyman. The three men then sign the contract, then Heyman says being attacked by The Authority is nothing compared to being attacked by Brock Lesnar. Ambrose then gets in Lesnar' face, and Lesnar responds by giving a beatdown to both Reigns and Ambrose. Triple H shows up at the top of the ramp, and he and Stephanie are pleased by what Lesnar have done.
We look back at Daniel Bryan's time in the original NXT show back in 2010.
Dolph Ziggler uses the ropes to beat Kevin Owens. Owens is livid after the match.
We look back at Daniel Bryan's United States Championship win at Night of Champions 2010.
The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) meet The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley). The Dudleys suggest they team up against The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods), for if any one team if worthy of a Tables Match against The New Day, it's The Dudleys. The Usos are up for the idea.
Charlotte will defend the WWE Divas Championship against Brie Bella at Fastlane.
Charlotte beats Alicia Fox with the Figure Eight.
It's official: The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) and The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) take on The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) and a mystery partner in an eight-man tag team tables match.
It's time for Miz TV. The Miz is still salty about what AJ Styles did to him on last week's show. As he still talks about it, out comes tonight's guest, Chris Jericho. Jericho says the Seattle, Washington audience deserves a Highlight Reel...and we get one, as the Miz TV set gets redecorated. The Miz gets ticked, saying this isn't right, and Jericho realizes we need a stool and a potted plant from Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose respectively, so we get them. The Miz ends up being the guest, and Jericho asks him about his recent match with AJ Styles. Miz mentions that Styles broke his front teeth, and that he had to go to great length to get them fixed. Jericho laughs about it, but Miz then makes fun of Jericho's loss to Styles as an attempt to say that he isn't the only one upstaged by AJ Styles. Jericho says this has been eating him up inside for the last two weeks, then after he asks if AJ Styles can beat him a second time, he says he doubts it because he is the best at what he does. AJ Styles shows up, then Miz attacks Jericho from behind. AJ attacks both men, but he and Jericho work together to toss Miz out of the ring. The two of them stare down, then brawl. Miz is involved again, but Jericho takes him out of the equation once more. Both Styles and Jericho then stare down before Jericho leaves.
We look back at Daniel Bryan's Money In The Bank ladder match win in 2011.
Bray Wyatt beats Ryback. After the match, The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman) attack Ryback.
We look back on the life and times of Team Hell No (Daniel Bryan and Kane).
Renee Young interviews The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) as they clean and analyze a table. They say they'll get a partner for their match eventually.
Dean Ambrose still wants Brock Lesnar. Roman Reigns offers to help him, but Ambrose says he wants Lesnar alone.
Before the next match, The Social Outcasts (Heath Slater, Adam Rose, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel) mention last night's Super Bowl, and Adam Rose says that tonight's top headline will be the "The Florida Gator" (a reference to Titus O'Neil) getting mutilated by "The Radical Mongoose" (himself).
Adam Rose beats Titus O'Neil after the distraction from Heath Slater after Titus plows through The Social Outcasts (Slater, Rose, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel) outside the ring.
We look back at SummerSlam 2013, when Daniel Bryan won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship for the first time.
Dean Ambrose shows up and mocks the F-5, saying Brock Lesnar can't get the job done. He calls out Lesnar again, telling him to get the job done. He says Suplex City has gone soft, and continue to mock both Lesnar and Paul Heyman. Lesnar and Heyman eventually show up, and Lesnar and Ambrose have a brawl in which Lesnar immediately goes on the warpath and comes up on top. After two F-5's to Ambrose, Lesnar leaves, but Ambrose wants more and Lesnar sees this as he stops and looks back. When he gets back in the ring, Reigns shows up, and Ambrose hits a low blow on a distracted Lesnar. Ambrose lays down on the ramp afterward.
The League of Nations (Alberto Del Rio and Rusev) beat The Lucha Dragons (Sin Cara and Kalisto).

After the match, The Dudley Boyz turn on The Usos and put both of them through tables.
Daniel Bryan shows up, now with shorter hair and a trimmed beard since the last time that we saw him, looking much like he did back in 2011 and 2012. He says that he cut his hair and beard for Wigs For Kids to benefit children diagnosed with pediatric cancer. Bryan admits he has had three concussions in the first five months of his 16-year career, and has been getting more here and there, but he always turned out fine every time and has loved professional wrestling more than anything else. A week and a half ago, however, he found out his brain may not be as good as he thought it was. Having a family to think about as well as future children, he announces his retirement from professional wrestling. He feels nothing but gratitude after a 16-year career, and talks about some of his favorite things from his career. Daniel Bryan then says he is grateful to have done this, not just because the WWE Universe got behind him in the last two years, but also because the WWE Universe made the last time his dad saw him wrestle before he passed away memorable and because he met his girlfriend (and now wife) Brie Bella through the profession. Tomorrow he starts a new life, but tonight, he gets one last "Yes!" chant. Brie Bella joins him in the ring.
The celebration continues on the WWE Network, where the entire WWE roster including Triple H, Stephanie McMahon and Vince McMahon stand at the top of the ramp to thank Daniel Bryan. Daniel Bryan thanks the fans, friends, family, commentary, Lilian Garcia, and finally the locker room.

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for January 11, 2016
The WWE roster is on the top of the entrance ramp as Vince McMahon and daughter Stephanie McMahon make their entrance to start the show. Vince says any of these men could be WWE World Heavyweight Champion after Royal Rumble, as does Stephanie. The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman) suddenly shows up, and Bray says "Anyone but you, Roman." It's not long before the champ himself, Roman Reigns, shows up. Roman asks what happens if he were to win the Rumble. Stephanie laughs, thinking he's delusional, but Vince has an idea: a one-versus-all match with Roman taking on a whole bunch of Superstars. Vince also says that Dean Ambrose won't be in it, as he is in the first match of the night against Sheamus, who hits Dean with a cheap shot from behind, sending him rolling down the ramp.
Dean Ambrose vs. Sheamus ends in a double count-out. After the match, an angry Dean Ambrose breaks down the commentary table, but Kevin Owens viciously blindsides him. Officials have to get Owens off of Dean as he tries to powerbomb Ambrose through a table.

No sooner do they say this that the "Rooty Tooty Booty" chants start, and The New Day shame Jericho. The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) show up to interrupt The New Day, wondering why they're the ones with the Tag Team Slammys when The New Day say they're the real best tag team in the WWE, and challenge them to a match. The New Day says there's three of them and only two Usos, but Jericho ups the ante by joining The Usos in their corner.

Adam says they were four seeds born in the dirt, struggling and reaching for that luminous light. He says he does not need his glasses because he has 20/20 vision. Slater says that what Rose is trying to say is that they are four individuals who have found the light together. When Slater asks why Curtis Axel is pacing back and forth, Bo Dallas says their Curtis is very upset, and that they plan to take out some of their anger on The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso). From now on, they are walking the path to success together. Before Bo says that all they have to do is Bolieve, The Usos show up.

Roman Reigns tells Stephanie he doesn't sweat her or anybody in her family, and as a message for Triple H: he's here and not hard to find.

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for November 30, 2015
During the pre-show, Becky Lynch runs into Paige, and Paige tries to drive a wedge between her and Charlotte. Becky Lynch seems to be having none of it.
The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) start off the show as confetti flies around the arena. Big E takes a Terrible Towel and desecrates it in front of the Pittsburgh crowd by wiping his armpits with it before using it to blow his nose. They then reveal what they're celebrating: Sheamus becoming the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Sheamus shows up in a suit and tie with the title around his waist, and proceeds to make fun of the crowd before crediting Triple H and Stephanie McMahon with his recent success. He then thanks the man he claims made it all possible: Roman Reigns. Sheamus and The New Day celebrate, and make fun of Roman Reigns for falling victim to the Brogue Kick at Survivor Series. Sheamus then declares that "Sheamus 5:15 just said I just kicked your arse!" As The New Day leave and Sheamus celebrates some more in the ring, Sheamus is suddenly laid out with a Superman Punch out of nowhere by Roman Reigns, who then runs off with the WWE World Heavyweight title.
The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso), Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns - still carrying the WWE World Heavyweight Championship - are confronted by Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, who want the championship back.

Triple H then says that he has just talked with Sheamus, who has decided not to wait until TLC to defend the title and has opted instead to defend it tonight. Roman is game, and the match is one, but Stephanie McMahon says there is a caveat: if Roman does not beat Sheamus in five minutes and fifteen minutes, he doesn't win the title.
Dolph Ziggler beats Tyler Breeze.

The Miz celebrates the happy couple, and Miz gets a glare for accidentally mentioning Summer Rae. Lana says she and Rusev patched everything up when he proposed to her, and that they never went all the way with Dolph Ziggler and Summer Rae, respectively. After they kiss again, Ryback suddenly appears. He says that the WWE Universe is tired of all this garbage, and that Ziggler actually did go all the way. Ryback then declares it's feeding time.

Triple H explains it away by saying he is doing this to drill into Roman's head that the choices he makes will also affect his friends.
The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) are in the ring. The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman) have had them on the ropes as of late, and that they added insult to injury by putting them through tables. However, they didn't get the job done, according to Bubba Ray, and now they have put not just targets on their backs, but their names on four tables...literally. After D-Von says that The Wyatt Family has failed to remember the Dudley Boyz Commandments, Bubba Ray challenges the Wyatts to a match at TLC. Suddenly, the Family appears, and Bray Wyatt accepts the challenge, but tells the Dudleys that they may be in over their head. The Dudleys say that while the Wyatts may be a family, they have family, too. Suddenly, out comes Tommy Dreamer with a trash can full of weapons, and Dreamer and the Dudleys arm themselves. When the Wyatts try to get in the ring, Dreamer and the Dudleys start swinging, and the Wyatts are forced to retreat.

Stephanie McMahon tells The Lucha Dragons (Sin Cara and Kalisto) and The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) they both have a tag team title shot against The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods)...but if Roman Reigns wins his match tonight, The Usos will lose their shot.

Friday Night on SmackDown: The Cutting Edge Peep Show with Dean Ambrose and Bray Wyatt as special guests.
Renee Young interviews Seth Rollins, who confirms he's inviting John Cena to the Cutting Edge Peep Show for his "celebration"
It's the Cutting Edge Peep Show! Edge and Christian's guest tonight is Seth Rollins, who considers them heroes and an inspiration for him to start wrestling. He wants to ring in 2015, but he doesn't want to do it alone...so he calls out Big Show, who shows up. He also calls out John Cena, who doesn't come out immediately. Rollins then says he wants something from Cena, but when Cena doesn't show up, Rollins decides to force his hand by attacking Christian with the Money in the Bank briefcase. Edge shoves Rollins, and he is soon surrounded by Big Show, Rollins, and J&J Security (Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble). Show forces Edge to the ground, and they all threaten to paralyze Edge for life. John Cena rushes in, but Rollins threatens to break Edge permanently if Cena doesn't bring back Triple H and Stephanie McMahon. John has no choice but to bring them back, but it's all a trick as Rollins attempts to Curb Stomp Edge. Cena fights everyone off but is easily outnumbered. After John Cena is taken down, Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar show up, and Rollins shakes hands with Heyman. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon then appear at the top of the ramp to end the show.
Edge and Christian start off the proceedings. They compromise and combine Peep Show and Cutting Edge to do a Cutting Edge Peep Show, with tonight's guest being Seth Rollins...who takes on Roman Reigns tonight. Also, Rusev will take on Dolph Ziggler in a Champion vs. Champion match, although neither of them will be naked, much to Christian's disappointment. Daniel Bryan will be here later to talk about his future. Edge and Christian then begin to do the five-second pose for all those with flash photography, Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman show up. Lesnar isn't in the mood to destroy Edge or Christian; instead, he's more focused on John Cena, according to Heyman. Cena shows up. He promises to take the WWE World Heavyweight Championship back at Royal Rumble, then puts his hands on Paul Heyman. Lesnar goes for Cena, but Cena has Lesnar read like a book. Lesnar breaks out of the Attitude Adjustment and retreats along with Paul Heyman.
Dolph Ziggler beats Rusev by disqualification when Rusev keeps Ziggler in the corner for too long. Rusev then locks the Accolade on Ziggler and uses the ropes to do more damage. As officials try to get him off Ziggler, Ryback shows up and forces Rusev to retreat.
Ryback talks about his road to where he is now: being a guest bell ringer as a kid at his first WWE live event in Las Vegas, $1,000,000 Tough Enough, going through depression, getting back in the groove and being re-signed by WWE, breaking his ankle in three places, beating the doctor's expectations, and becoming The Ryback. After a video package of Ryback, Ryback tells Rusev that this won't be just a USA vs. Russia, it's going to be a "big guy giving another big guy an ass-kicking thing" at Royal Rumble.
Nikki Bella beats Natalya after the distraction from Brie Bella.
Naomi thanks The Miz backstage, telling him that thanks to his connections to the music producer, she has future projects outside of WWE lined up. She wishes Miz luck on his tag team title match against The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso).
The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) beat The Miz and Damien Mizdow to win the WWE Tag Team Championships! They celebrate with Naomi, and Jerry Lawler interviews The Usos after the match. They declare 2014 "the Year of the Usos," and they're throwing a party, with barbeque involved. Jerry Lawler is, of course, invited.
Cesaro is in the ring. He says 2014 should have been his year after winning the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 30, but WWE says he doesn't connect with the WWE Universe. He doesn't care about connecting with the Universe; he just cares about putting a show every night. He issues an open challenge to anyone who doubts him...and the person who answers is none other than Bad News Barrett, who is back after being on the injured list for six months.
Bad News Barrett beats Cesaro.
Luke Harper has a message for those who want to toss him aside like trash and cast him as a social pariah: he's a nightmare come to life. Sweet dreams.
