THIS SUNDAY AT WWE SUPER SHOW-DOWN: “The Phenomenal “ AJ Styles will challenge “The Samoan Submission Machine” Samoa Joe for the WWE Championship!

SHOW OPENER PROMO

AJ Styles talks about his four reigns as WWE Champion and his eight combined successful title defenses and says that those numbers are enough for the Vegas odds to heavily favor “The Phenomenal One” in Melbourne and those numbers should worry big, bad Joe and his first-time WWE Title reign.

Regarding Samoa Joe's comments about how Joe's reign will “eclipse AJ who'll be known as nothing more than Joe's second successful title defense”: Styles brings up Joe's reign as WWE Universal Champion and how he had a grand total of zero successful title defenses. All of this alone is enough to make it crystal clear that AJ Styles is leaving Melbourne, Australia as a five-time WWE Champion!

NEXT ON SMACKDOWN LIVE: Carmella was quick to respond when Andrade “Cien” Almas and Zelina Vega trashed the debut of Truth TV on social media, prompting “The Princess of Staten Island” to challenge them to a mixed tag match!

THIS SUNDAY AT WWE SUPER SHOW-DOWN: The Club challenge The Bar for the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship!

MIDDLE CARD PROMO

After careful research of The Bar's taunts, catchphrases and entrance moves, Luke Gallows can certifiably confirm that The Bar are in fact: NERDS and at Super Show-Down, The Club will go Sheamus and Cesaro a favor by relieving them of the SmackDown Tag Team Titles so they can take the proper amount of time to reflect on the matter.

The Bar come out as Sheamus reminds Gallows about the time Gallows got his teeth kicked in by Sheamus' Brogue Kick last week on SmackDown Live. He then adds that at Super Show-Down he's going to kick Karl Anderson's teeth down his throat and The Bar will leave Melbourne, Australia with their SmackDown Tag Team Championship.

Sheamus puts a point on his statement by dropping Gallows with a vicious low blow kick, setting off a brawl that “The Celtic Warrior” gets the better of!
