On the same day WWE announced the card breakdowns for the first-ever two-night SummerSlam, the event added a big championship match. The main event of Friday's SmackDown ended by disqualification, allowing the Wyatt Sicks to retain the WWE tag team championship against Andrade and Rey Fenix.

It was a good idea on paper to have Jacob Fatu beat The Miz to tune up for SummerSlam’s steel cage war with Solo Sikoa, but the match fell flat. SmackDown was in Cleveland, and Miz’s pre-match promo played out more like he was a spirited babyface returning to avenge an injury. He even slapped Fatu to big cheers from the Ohio masses. It was weird.

This week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown opened with Solo Sikoa and The MFTs getting into a car crash, with Tama Tonga bloodied in the incident. The police were called and quickly pegged Jacob Fatu as a suspect in the incident.
