WWE SmackDown Live Results and Updates- 5 March 2019
Aleister Black and Ricochet vs the Bar
Ricochet has botched his entrance and might have got injured. The Bar talk trash about the duo, calling them “NXT’s shiny new toys”. Sheamus and Ricochet begin the action, with The One and Only taking it to the former World Champion multiple times. Sheamus kicks Ricochet in the gut to start the match. Ricochet back with some right hands and a headscissor takeover. He hits a standing shooting star press for two. Sheamus puts him on the apron and sends him outside with a jumping knee.
Cesaro is in control after the break. He keeps Ricochet grounded with a series of submissions. Black gets the hot tag and unloads on Sheamus with a flurry of kicks. He takes him down with a moonsault and a knee to the face, but Cesaro breaks up the subsequent pin. Cesaro tags himself in so they can hit a double team for a two count. Cesaro counters a backdrop by landing on his feet only to end up taking Black Mass a second later. Ricochet tags in and hits the 630 for the pin and the win.
Winner- Aleister Black and Ricochet
Rusev and Nakamura
Naomi vs Mandy Rose
Naomi starts bright and sticks Mandy with a kick to the face right away. She hits Mandy with a jawbreaker, but a distraction from Sonya on the apron allows Rose to hit a knee to the face followed by her finisher for the pin and the win.
Winner- Mandy Rose
After the match, Asuka attacks Mandy and Sonya at the entrance.
AJ Styles being interviewed backstage talking about how Kofi is robbed out of the opportunity for the title and Owens is in a loss-loss situation with the crowd. Randy Orton interrupts and says that Styles talking about the title opportunity apart from himself as fair, is the reason why it took him 15 years to come to WWE.
Kevin Owens vs Erick Rowan
Rowan starts unloading on Owens. KO tries to counter with a boot but Rowan is unaffected by it. After a body splash in the corner, Rowan dropkicks KO, sending him out of the ring. Bryan is talking all sorts of trash about KO, and KO attacks the champion. Rowan stops it and sends him into the steel steps. Bryan starts attacking him too to cause a Disqualification.
Winner- Kevin Owens(with a disqualification)
Rowan was getting ready to slam KO into the announce table when Mustafa Ali comes out and takes down Bryan and then hits a suicide dive on Rowan. He counters the claw slam with a hurricanrana to send Rowan into the ring post. Bryan attacks him from behind and takes him to the ring where KO comes in to hit him with a stunner.
Charlotte Flair & Becky Lynch
Charlotte comes out first. As the crowd starts to chant ‘Becky!’, she signals for them to be silent and we get the recap of Ronda’s heel turn from last night at RAW where she attacks Becky while Charlotte just stands at the ramp watching the mayhem. Charlotte keeps mocking the crowd and Becky while she calls her out. As Becky makes her way to the ring, Charlotte mocks her hobbled walk.
As the crowd gets excited, Becky starts by saying that she accepts that she is not in a condition physically but she can still fight her on one good leg as she did at Royal Rumble. She lives in both Charlotte and Ronda’s head. So much so that Ronda first fights the Authority to get her reinstated to the WrestleMania but as soon as it becomes possible she tries to prevent it by assaulting her. Becky says that she has nothing to lose.
Charlotte gets angry and starts attacking Becky Lynch, taking her down and slamming her knee. She starts hits the crutch on Becky and slams her knee with it. Becky snatches it to hit on Charlotte’s legs and locks her in the Dis-Arm-Her. Two referees come out to separate them. As Charlotte walks away smiling, Becky shouts, “On one good leg” to end the show.
