SmackDown: Styles Beats Kross Again, Damage CTRL Attack Flair & Asuka
While WWE SmackDown episode of August 11 featured a title change, it also saw AJ Styles beating Karrion Kross once again while Damage CTRL tried to assert their dominance.
Damage CTRL Attack Flair & Asuka
Iyo Sky is the new WWE Women’s Champion after she cashed in her Money in the Bank breifcase against Bianca Belair after her brutal match against Charlotte Flair and Asuka at Summerslam. Bianca Belair was out of action this week due to her knee injury on which Iyo capitalized to win the match.
Damage CTRL were active this week to take care of the threat in advance. Charlotte Flair and Asuka were in a singles match this week on Smackdown, but Damage CTRL attacked them before the match could finish.

Styles Beats Kross… Again!
AJ Styles and Karrion Kross have been feuding since May when Kross pulled out AJ’s card. Styles and Michin’ were defeated by Kross and Scarlett in a mixed tag team match, but AJ defeated Kross once again at Madison Square Garden in July. However, Kross did not leave AJ alone and continued to target him. However, that might be over now AJ has defeated Kross convincingly on August 11 episode of SmackDown.
LA Knight’s Momentum Continues!
Fresh off winning the Battle Royal at SummerSlam, LA Knight was once again in action on Smackdown as he faced Top Dolla in a singles match. Knight was overwhelmed by the numbers game from Hit-Row for a while, but he was able to overcome it with ease and finished off Top Dolla easily.
"Doesn't matter if you call yourself AWESOME…whose game is it?"
