Bengaluru, January 25: The go-home edition of WWE SmackDown for 2020 Royal Rumble aired live last night with the main focus being the storylines of Sunday's pay-per-view.
A contract signing for the Universal Championship took place on the show, which was headlined by a huge six-man tag team match at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas.
Here's how SmackDown before 2020 Royal Rumble went down:
The six-man tag team match with the lineup of The Usos and Roman Reigns vs. King Corbin, Robert Roode, and Dolph Ziggler kicked off SmackDown. Ziggler sent Jimmy into the steel ring post to nullify him and made it a Handicap match for sometime after which the heels dominated.
You don't want THIS TEAM staring across the ring from you.
