Cody Rhodes picked up a dark match victory after this week's episode of SmackDown from Bridgestone Arena in Nashville went off air.
A number of matches took place after the Blue Branded Show this week. WWE first taped the finals of the Women's Speed Championship Tournament set to air on X on October 11.
The first dark match of the night then saw Liv Morgan with Dirty Dom defending the Women's Title against Lyra Valkyria. Morgan picked up the victory in the bout.
The second dark match featured Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes facing Austin Theory. The latter had his A Town Down Under partner Greyson Waller on his side.
While Waller tried to help his partner win the bout, Rhodes ended up outsmarting them. He sent Theory crashing into Greyson when he hopped up on the apron and then picked up the victory with a Cross Rhodes.
What Happened On SmackDown
The Bad Blood go home episode of SmackDown was full of many noteworthy moments. The show saw the TV return of AJ Styles who unfortunately seems to have suffered an injury during his match with Carmelo Hayes.
The event also featured the return of the Dumpster match. Michin picked up a victory over Chelsea Green in the bout, sending Green into a Twitter tirade.
The Bloodline defended their tag titles in a triple threat ladder match in the main event of the show. They went up against DIY and Street Profits. The duo of Tonga Loa and Tama Tonga managed to retain the titles without any outside help.
Tomasso Ciampa wasn't very happy with the outcome of this bout and he can be seen refusing a handshake from Street Profits in a fan-made video after the show.
