SmackDown Hotel! - Thursday Night SmackDown recap for September 17, 2015

The show begins with the arrival of Seth Rollins. He plans to make history by successfully defending both the WWE United States Championship and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship against John Cena and Sting, respectively. He plans to break both men as well as Cena's spirit and Sting's career, and show Sting why he is the past and Rollins is the now. As for tonight, he plans to make some history by teaming with Sheamus - current Money In The Bank briefcase holder - against his former Shield brothers, Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins. As for why he would team with Sheamus? Not any man would be okay with that, but "the man" would be okay with that, saying it is wise to keep his friends close and his enemies closer. As he discounts the kind of threat that Sheamus would bring to the World title, Sheamus shows up, intrigued by the "keeping friends close and enemies closer" concept and asks what Rollins considers him, telling Rollins he doesn't want him to be his enemy. Nevertheless, Sheamus insists that when he cashes in, Rollins won't see it coming, but Rollins says he will, and that he agrees with the WWE Universe that Sheamus looks stupid. Sheamus tells Rollins they won't make the main event if he keeps making those kinds of insults, and is actually looking forward to it as he plans to scout Rollins out during the match, all while jokingly referring to Rollins as his "friend."

Team B.A.D. (Naomi and Sasha Banks) beat Team PCB (Paige and Becky Lynch) after the distraction from Sasha Banks.

Stardust and The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor) tell Neville and The Lucha Dragons (Sin Cara and Kalisto) that there is no escaping the cosmic wasteland.

Before the next match, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) calls The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) disrespectful to Mother Nature for destroying tables. Big E gives the Dudleys a chance to sign their petition to save the tables, and that if they sign it, their karma will grow exponentially. The "save the tables" chant is cut short by the entrance of the Dudleys, who refuse to sign the petition as D-Von breaks the clipboard the petition is clipped to over his knee.

Kofi Kingston grabs the tights to beat D-Von Dudley after the distraction from Xavier Woods. After the match, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) run away with a table located underneath the ring.

Team Bella (Brie and Nikki Bella, Alicia Fox) run down the checklist for the "Bellabration." However, there's a problem waiting to getting worse, but Nikki Bella doesn't want to hear about it.

The Miz hands Big Show a book with confidential things on it. Big Show looks at it, then tosses it away, clearly not impressed.

Big Show beats Cesaro after Cesaro accidentally tweaks his knee.

Renee Young interviews Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns. They're not revealing who the third man is, given everything that The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Braun Strowman) has done. Dean Ambrose has made a phone call, and says it's been the right phone call. He then says that the world will find out when The Wyatt Family finds out. As for tonight, they have the feeling that Sheamus and Seth Rollins will not fully get along tonight, and plan to get a big win before Night of Champions.

Kevin Owens beats Dolph Ziggler by disqualification after Ryback rushes in and attacks Owens, saving Ziggler from a power bomb into the apron.

Alicia Fox and Brie Bella are worried about whether or not the "Bellabration" will go okay...

Nikki Bella shows up for the Bellabration only to find out that nobody's there. Brie tells them that nobody showed up. Brie Bella and Alicia Fox say they'll fix it, but Team PCB (Paige, Charlotte, Becky Lynch) shows up, and Charlotte tells Nikki that her days with the Divas title are extremely numbered. They leave, then Adam Rose shows up and tells Nikki her party sucks. She tries to throw the cake at him, but he's disappeared and the cake has landed on Brie and Alicia, who have no idea what's going on.

Summer Rae meets with Dolph Ziggler concerning the jewelry from Monday Night. They were earrings, and Summer tells him that she loves the peace offering. Ziggler just wants to let bygones by bygones. He says "A rose is just a rose...but sometimes...it means more."

Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns beat Sheamus andSeth Rollins after Sheamus leaves Rollins high and dry and refuses to get along with him. Sheamus ends up eating the Superman Punch and the Dirty Deeds in the end. After the match, Braun Strowman's face appears on the TitanTron, and Bray Wyatt is heard saying "They all fall down" in the video package. Bray Wyatt then appears, asking who would be foolish enough to join them, then says it doesn't matter as they all fall down. Luke Harper and Braun Strowman join him, and Braun tells them to run.
