New Delhi, July 26: Following the Battleground PPV on this past Sunday (July 23), this edition of WWE Smackdown marked the fallouts from the event.

It also kicked off this year's storylines for Summerslam which is less than four weeks away from now.

Here's what went down on last night's show that was hosted by The Richmond Coliseum in Richmond, Virginia:

The show kicked off with the new United States Champion, Kevin Owens addressing the WWE Universe. He kept in bragging about his championship win until AJ Styles showed up demanding a rematch. Owens denied it saying that he is not going to defend the title in a city like Richmond.

Chris Jericho's music hit the arena as the crowd went crazy. Y2J was back in the WWE claiming that it's him who owes the rematch. Shane McMahon appeared on the scene to declare that a triple threat match featuring Jericho, Owens and Styles will take place in the main event for the US title.



Shinsuke Nakamura got a rematch from the Battleground PPV against Baron Corbin. This time, he was able to defeat the Lone Wolf in a clean way. The Artist connected with a knee to Corbin's back and followed it with the Kinshasa to get the pinfall.


Charlotte and Becky Lynch teamed up against the alliance of Tamina and Lana. The babyface team picked up the win quite convincingly by taking Tamina out of the equation. Charlotte connected with a big boot to Lana for the pinfall causing a rift between the heel team.






The New Day was making their way to the ring with the newly won Smackdown Tag Team titles. However, their celebration got cut short with The Usos attacking them from behind on the ramp. The backstage officials ran down to stop the heel team but they already laid down the champions on the entrance ramp.



Jinder Mahal came out to address his win at Battleground as well as to find out his opponent at Summerslam. John Cena showed up declaring himself as the contender. However, Daniel Bryan came out to announce that next week Cena will take on Nakamura with the winner officially becoming Mahal's challenger at Summerslam.




Naomi had yet another confrontation with Carmella who threatened to cash in the Money in the Bank briefcase, anytime on the champion. In tag team action, Sami Zayn and Tye Dillinger defeated the team of Mike Kanellis and Aiden English.





As announced earlier, the main event of Smackdown witnessed a triple threat match for the US title. During the end of the match, Owens hit a Frog splash to Jericho but Styles came in and pushed him off the ring. He hooked the legs of Y2J to get the pinfall and become the new United States Champion. He celebrated to close the show.
