WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: HASTA LA VISTA NXT WOMEN'S TAG BELTS, BIANCA GETTING NO RESPECT, WAS IT LA'S KNIGHT?, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2023-06-23 21:59:00

Waller welcomes everyone to the Grayson Waller Effect and he says he is the hottest thing in the WWE and he is looking for a green card.  He says his guests are the hottest tag team in WWE.

He brings out Pretty Deadly.

Elton says this is their favorite talk show, so much better than the KO Show.  

Waller says it is nice to have lads on the show with style and good banter.  He says Americans don't have any banter.

Waller asks Kit and Elton about their tag title match next week on Smackdown.

Kit says in their home country, in the greatest city, they are taking this Pretty Deadly serious.  They are facing the main eventers of Night One of Wrestlemania.  Elton says they are not getting the same respect that they are giving Kevin and Sami.

Elton says Kevin and Sami came out and said they were surprised that they won the gauntlet.  Elton says they have won gold before and they have unified titles before.  Kevin and Sami can bicker with each other to see if their giant egos can fit together.  They have been on the same page for three years in this company and for ten years while they run the division.

Waller says he is not surprised.  He says they can talk about Kevin and Sami all they want, but Waller wants to talk about how Kit and Elton beat five of the best teams in WWE in one match in one night.

Kit says they are the Iron Men of Smackdown.  Elton says it was a match where they didn't know if they could continue after beating five different teams.  Kit says they did it for blood, sweat, and tears with every fiber of their being.

Elton says the Brawling Brutes lasted to the end, just like them, but they beat them.  Kit likes the LWO as a team and their t-shirts, but they beat them.  They beat the OC.  They beat Hit Row.  They also beat The Street Profits.

According to the Rules of WWE, since the Street Profits were mentioned, their music plays and they appear on the stage.

Montez says they are back on Smackdown and it means Waller is going to have a season two.  Since you haven't been introduced to the smoke it is up to them.
