SmackDown Hotel! - WWE SmackDown recap for May 7, 2015

Jerry Lawler is in the ring, and he introduces King Barrett to start the show. Barrett tells Lawler that he's the only king in the WWE right now, and that Lawler only calls himself a king while Barrett himself has earned the title. When Barrett orders Lawler to grovel in front of him, Lawler refuses, and Barrett is about to end the interview with a Bull Hammer when Dolph Ziggler shows up and calls him out on his crap.

Dolph Ziggler beats King Barrett via disqualification when Sheamus charges the ring and attacks Ziggler. The latter takes a 2-on-1 beating from Sheamus and Barrett until Neville comes out and evens the odds.

Dolph Ziggler and Neville beats Sheamus and King Barrett in an impromptu tag team match.

Renee Young interviews Dean Ambrose. Ambrose doesn't care about the odds at Payback.

Luke Harper destroys Fandango. After the match, Erick Rowan shows up and attacks Fandango, turning heel. Harper keeps staring at Rowan and his sheep mask with intrigue.

Lana shows up. She asks the WWE Universe not to cheer for her, as it angers Rusev. Almost as if on cue, Rusev shows up and yells at her before commanding her to go to the back, then calls Cena's victories against him nothing more than flukes and miracles. He says Cena showed mercy to Sami Zayn on Raw, and that mercy is a sign of weakness. Rusev promises to make Cena say "I Quit" at Payback.

Renee Young interviews Roman Reigns. Roman is willing to put brotherhood aside to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

For their six man tag team match against The New Day (Xavier Woods, Big E., Kofi Kingston), Tyson Kidd and Cesaro reveal their mystery partner to be none other than Ryback.

The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E., Xavier Woods) beats Ryback, Tyson Kidd and Cesaro when Kofi pins Tyson Kidd with the tights, not before a Bray Wyatt vignette is shown, which distracts Ryback.

Renee Young interviews Randy Orton. He says The Viper is coming to Payback, not him, and that he's primed and ready to RKO anybody that night.

Naomi beats Emma, and both she and Tamina attack Emma afterwards.

We see more videos of those who think they're Tough Enough.

Renee Young interviews Seth Rollins, who talks crap about Kane and says that Kane will never have his smarts.

The Lucha Dragons (Kalisto and Sin Cara) beats Los Matadores (Fernando and Diego). As El Torito tries to console Diego in the ring, he roughly pushes El Torito aside.

Kane hosts the contract signing for the Fatal Four-Way for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Payback, and introduces the four participants: Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose and the champion Seth Rollins. Rollins refuses to get in the ring, and Ambrose calls him out on him. As Roman Reigns signs the contract, Randy Orton says that everyone else at the table is there for the same reason. Everyone else signs, then Rollins asks Kane to sign for him. Kane says he has agreed to sign as his proxy in case he's hurt and can't come to the ring, but refuses to do so since Seth Rollins is standing at the ramp. Rollins then approaches the ring, has Joey Mercury hand him the contract so he can review it, talks trash to all the challengers in an attempt to turn them against one another, then gets in the ring, hands the contract to Kane and argues with him. As they argue, they notice Dean Ambrose is moving all the furniture. Ambrose calls dibs on the table, starting a wild brawl where Superman Punches, RKO's and fists fly, but in the end, Seth Rollins stands tall to end the show.
