The latest episode of WWE SmackDown, aired on May 30, opened with Bianca Blair making a return to the ring with a splint on her broken finger. She was confronted by her former best friend, Naomi. Jade Cargil showed up and attacked Naomi and threw her out of the ring. Jade Cargil came forward and challenged both Jax and Naomi in the first match of the night.

Later on the show, 21-year-old JC Mateo, backed by Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline, made his WWE debut against R-Truth. Jacob Fatu was also part of the episode, appearing in a Money in the Bank qualifier match against Andrade and Carmelo Hayes.

A tag-team dispute unfolded backstage, with The Street Profits showing off their title. They were interrupted by Faxiom, who claimed that their title match was troubled by the Wyatt Sicks. Motor City Machine Gun and DIY also engaged in trash talk when Wyatt Sicks came out amid darkness. Uncle Howdy went hard on the other tag teams and took down all of them one by one.

Los Garza clashed against the pair of Rey Fenix and Je’Von Evans, while Zelina Vega and Alba Fyre went head-to-head in a singles match. After the MIB Qualifier match, Cody Rhodes entered the ring, and the crowd started mocking John Cena. Rhodes vowed to reclaim the WWE title, beating Cena, before introducing his new tag-team partner, Jey Uso.

Logan Paul joined Cena in the ring and accused Jey of cheating in their last Heavyweight Championship match. A sudden brawl broke out, as Rhodes and Jey attacked Paul and Cena, showcasing some big moves. At the end of the episode, Rhodes stole Cena’s belt and flaunted it in front of fans, while Jey also lifted his title with pride.

Let’s take a look at the SmackDown results of May 30’s episode:

Naomi vs Nia Jax & Jade Cargill: Jax and Naomi teamed up to take Cargill down early on. Jax then shifted his focus to Naomi, who came back with an Anihilator and rolled her up to seal the win.

JC Mateo vs R-Truth: Mateo started his WWE career on a promising note. He used the Tour of the Island on Truth to claim his first SmackDown win.

Los Garza vs Rey Fenix & Je’Von Evans: Los Garza made the most out of a distraction and shelled out their finisher to win the tag-team bout.

Zelina Vega vs Alba Fyre: Vega comfortably sealed the deal, hitting Fyre with the Code Red.

Money In The Bank Qualifier: Fatu was baffled by the intervention of Sikoa and Mateo, which helped Andrade knock down Carmelo Hayes with the message to earn the MIB spot.
