Your announcers are the same announcers as the first Smackdown on Fox, Corey Graves and Michael Cole.

We see Bayley arriving at the arena.

Giovanni Vinci arrives at the building.

Cody Rhodes signs autographs.

We take a look at highlights from Bash in Berlin.

Cody Rhodes makes his way to the ring.

Cody asks the people of Edmonton what they want to talk about.  Cody says this is an extremely large crowd.   At Bash in Berlin, he says he was victorious against Canada's own Kevin Owens.  Cody welcomes Michael Cole back to Smackdown.  Cody says he could go on further, but he has done this long enough that any moment, he is going to be interrupted.  Before he is interrupted, he wants to extend an invitation to the Bloodline.

Pursuant to WWE bylaws, the Bloodline makes their way to the ring because they were mentioned.  Solo Sikoa makes his way to the ring with Tonga Loa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu.

Solo enters the ring while the others stay on the floor.

Solo responds to the boos by saying he is happy to see them too.  He asks Cody if he is done running his mouth to these people.  He asks Cody if he is ready to defend that title against a real challenger like him.  Solo says everybody knows that he could have been champion.  He says he had Cody beat at SummerSlam, if it wasn't for Roman Reigns.  Solo says he deserves a rematch.  

Cody says the season premiere of Smackdown next week should have a title match.  Cody says someone is the number one contender in his book and he deserves a title match.  Cody says he is not talking to Solo, he is talking to Jacob Fatu.  Cody tells Jacob to step up.

Jacob makes his way into the ring, but he is not sure if he should step on the feet of Solo.  Solo stares at Jacob and Jacob tells Solo he loves him and he is his tribal chief.  Jacob goes back to the floor and stands next to Tama and Tonga.

Cody says it was worth a shot.  He would be crazy to wrestle any of you.  You believe it, don't you?  You get better every minute.  The Bloodline revolves around you.  Cody says this title is what WWE revolves around.  He might be looking up at the lights due to your iron thumb at some point, but it won't be next week.

Solo says he sees what Cody is trying to do to get his enforcer to turn on him.  Solo says Cody is on for next week.

Solo and Cody toss their mics aside.

Tama, Tonga, and Jacob get into the ring and then their opponents in the main event arrive on the scene.

Nick Aldis tells everyone to back down unless they want to be suspended.

Nick says they can fight each other in the main event, but not a moment sooner.   Nick says next week Solo Sikoa faces Cody Rhodes for the championship.  Nick says this numbers game is getting a little old and bad for business.  Nick says he has an idea for what is best for business.  Next week, your match is in a steel cage.

Elton and Kit tell Tiffany that Bayley ends tonight thanks to her.  They talk about the premiere of the Mu . . . 

Nia Jax shows up and she talks about how everyone thought Tiffany was going to cash in on her.

Tiffany says she would never do that.  Chelsea Green is spreading those lies because she is jealous.

Nia says she knows Tiffany would never lie to her.

Nia says she will be in Tiffany's corner and she will help her like Tiffany helped her.
