WWE Friday Night SmackDown Results—Friday, April 9, 2021

Opening Segment Featuring Daniel Bryan

Daniel Bryan set a very, very high bar for promo of the night on a night where we’d be hearing from Bryan, Edge and Roman Reigns. Good as his show-opening promo was, both Edge and Reigns are capable of topping it.

The Dirty Dawgz def. The Street Profits, Alpha Academy, Rey and Dominik Mysterio

Michael Cole just can’t stop calling Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode the “Top Dawgs.”

WWE had no less than two feel-good stories between Takeback SZN and the Mysterios winning the SmackDown Tag Team Championships as a father-son duo. Instead, The Dirty Dawgz retained. If this is any indication of how WrestleMania 37 will be booked, it’s going to be a long weekend for the babyfaces.

Tamina def. Nia Jax by Disqualification

With WrestleMania less than 24 hours away, Tamina and Natalya picked the worst time to stop matching.

Tamina hit a Samoan Drop and the announce team put it over like she hit two finishers at the same time.

The women’s brawl backstage after this match was terrible and did more to hurt tomorrow’s tag team turmoil match than help it.

My Cesaro takedown video was so much better than Seth Rollins’.

Edge Appears Live

Edge’s promo effortlessly cleared the bar that had previously been set. He brilliantly drew parallels to Roman Reigns starting in a three-man group, entering through the crowd and using the Spear as his finisher. Calling Reigns “Samoan Edge” was just the icing on top.

The only thing that would have made this promo better is if Edge cut it as a babyface.

Jey Uso Wins Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal

This Battle Royal was sprinkled with wrestlers who deserved better at WrestleMania, but none more so than Jey Uso.

Tucker is now dressing like Matt Hardy, Version 1 and was predictably quick to be eliminated.

Judging by their masks and ring gear, Nobody told Slapjack, T-BAR or Mace that RETRIBUTION is done.

The Final 3 came down to Shinsuke Nakamura, Baron Corbin and Main Event Uso.

Roman Reigns Appears Live

Jey Uso hilariously exclaimed “I did something right!” as Roman Reigns was making his way to the ring.

All three promos were straight fire, including Roman Reigns’ go-home promo, but Edge won comfortably.
