SmackDown LIVE preview, July 2, 2019: Can Kingston bounce back from loss to Samoa Joe?

Samoa Joe got the WWE Championship Match he’s been looking for at Extreme Rules, and now he’s doing all he can to establish dominance over Kofi Kingston. Whether it’s putting Kingston to sleep with the Coquina Clutch or defeating the WWE Champion in Six-Man Tag Team action on Raw, The Samoan Submission Machine seems to have the upper hand as the title showdown draws near. Can he continue to one-up the champion? Find out tonight on SmackDown LIVE at 8/7 C on USA Network!

Can Kofi Kingston bounce back from Six-Man Tag Team loss to Samoa Joe?

Last night on Raw, Samoa Joe stood tall at the conclusion of a Six-Man Tag Team Match, taking WWE Champion Kofi Kingston out with the Coquina Clutch to win the battle against The New Day alongside The Viking Raiders.

As the championship showdown at Extreme Rules draws closer, can Kofi Kingston bounce back, or has Joe gained the upper hand?

Is Bayley ready for Alexa Bliss?

Last Tuesday on SmackDown LIVE, Nikki Cross defeated SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley to earn her best friend, Alexa Bliss, another opportunity to challenge The Hugger for the title at Extreme Rules.

With Cross ready to help her friend claim a title at any cost, is Bayley ready for another round with The Goddess?

Will The New Day continue to chase after Bryan & Rowan’s titles?

With WWE Champion Kofi Kingston preparing for the challenge of Samoa Joe, fellow New Day members Big E & Xavier Woods had quite the week for themselves, pinning SmackDown Tag Team Champion Daniel Bryan in an Eight-Man Elimination Tag Team Match on Raw, then defeating Bryan & Rowan in tag team action last Tuesday on SmackDown LIVE.

Have The New Day reestablished themselves as a threat to the SmackDown Tag Team Titles?

Will Mandy Rose & Sonya Deville continue to torment Ember Moon?

After weeks of torment, Ember Moon finally thought she had her chance at payback last Tuesday when she squared off with Sonya Deville, but a timely distraction from Mandy Rose gave Deville the opening to ram Moon face-first into the ring post and pick up the win.

Will The War Goddess still be out for retribution, or have Rose & Deville taught Moon a lesson?

Do I get to blame him for things I don't like about the show or just give him credit for stuff I fucks with?

Like Deezy said it's still one man's sandbox so I'm gonna blame Vince for the things I don't like.

Damn they making me think this shit might be legit

Blame Vince for the shit, give credit elsewhere for the good stuff...sounds like business as usual

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I wonder if Easy E and Paul E are coordinated their mindsets at all since the shows have connected strings now with the wildcards.

I fucks with opening with the KO Show

Would be super hard not to I'd think unless they just got Vince as the middleman which I don't think will work too well

Makes sense to me because the shit predated Bischoff. He just got here. He didn't make that shit from two weeks ago.

For the record, you and I mostly like the product, anyway.

Someone teach KO how to pronounce phenom

Lmao I know it's just funny how people think any one guy should get all the credit or all the shit for a good/bad segment when there's still writers and agents working they're way up before we get to Bischoff/Heyman and then Vince

That's no fun.

Also has it been confirmed anyway that them taking over started this week or are they getting a couple weeks or so to plan before it? I've just seen the official announcement and idk if it specified

Damn that seemed like way longer than normal..
