LIVE WWE SmackDown Coverage October 13, 2023
John Cena is the first to make his entrance. He is about to address the fans, but the return of Roman Reigns interrupts him quickly. "If you're going to open my show, do it the right way," says The Tribal Chief. He demands recognition, but the audience sides with Cena. "We've been through this before, so I won't drag it out: leave my ring or there will be consequences." John Cena insists that he hasn't earned a shot at the title that Roman has held for 1,138 days, but he knows someone who has.
LA Knight comes to the ring! The Megastar introduces himself to Roman and the crowd goes wild. The Head of the Table treats him like a nobody. Jimmy Uso attacks Knight! The latter defends himself, and Roman instructs Solo Sikoa to take care of the situation. Solo and Knight will face off tonight.

Pretty Deadly gains the advantage during the commercial break. Butch is trapped in the opposing corner for several minutes until he manages to tag in Butch.

Wilson kicks his opponent's head! Prince runs towards Ridge for a Small Package. 1...2...3...
Winners: Pretty Deadly by pinfall
We revisit Carlito's surprising return to WWE at Fastlane 2023. The Caribbean Cool grants an interview backstage, but Bobby Lashley interrupts him. The returning star says he will face The All Mighty tonight but receives an ambush from Street Profits, which is quickly stopped by Adam Pearce and Jason Jordan.
After the commercial, Bayley interrupts Adam Pearce and downplays what happened with Carlito. Zelina Vega gets angry and starts a verbal altercation. Adam Pearce orders both women to get in the ring for a one-on-one match.
In his locker room, Roman Reigns questions Jimmy Uso about recent decisions and asks about Jey. "He's history, but the fact that he's walking around with the Tag Team Championships alongside Cody Rhodes is a lack of respect to our family," says Roman. Jimmy promises to take care of the situation.
Zelina Vega vs. Bayley
Zelina Vega is underestimated due to her size, but she manages to connect with her first offense and back Bayley into the ropes. Bayley responds with a Clothesline and holds the advantage for a short time. 619 from Zelina over the top rope! She applies a Meteora to the Damage CTRL member, who, thanks to the intervention of her partners, delivers a knee to the face followed by a Backstabber for the victory.
Winner: Bayley by pinfall
Charlotte Flair comes to the defense of Zelina Vega! Damage CTRL slowly leaves the scene.
Triple H makes his entrance into the ring. "There's a part of me that missed this," he says in response to the fans' admiration. The King of Kings reminds us that we're on the eve of big events like Crown Jewel and Survivor Series. He announces Adam Pearce as RAW's General Manager. Triple H acknowledges Pearce's incredible job in a very difficult role and says no one should do it alone.
Dominik Mysterio appears before the announcement and says it's unfair to see Jey Uso and Cody Rhodes defending the titles tonight. But the crowd boos him. Triple H states that he's not the one Dominik should be talking to; he should talk to his new boss. Nick Aldis is confirmed as the General Manager of SmackDown! The National Treasure's first order addresses the "compensation" that SmackDown will receive after Jey Uso's departure several weeks ago. Kevin Owens is the new superstar of SmackDown, and he delivers a Stunner to Dominik to close the segment.
In his locker room, Roman Reigns is angry about having Kevin Owens, Cody Rhodes, and Jey Uso on his show. The Tribal Chief is upset with Jimmy for staying in his locker room and not handling the situation backstage. Uso takes Solo Sikoa with him to obey his boss's order.
We see a promotional video for Dragon Lee, who has been transferred to SmackDown as a main roster superstar.
Backstage, after rejecting an idea from Chelsea Green and Piper Niven, Nick Aldis confirms to Charlotte Flair that she will get her rematch against IYO Sky next week. Leaving the managerial office, The Queen encounters Jade Cargill, and they have a face-off.
