WWE Smackdown! Results 3/28 The Last Stop On The Road To Wrestlemania!
This is the Fightful.com live coverage for tonight's episode of WWE Smackdown Live! We are just 5 days away from The Ultimate Thrill Ride; Wrestlemania where Randy Orton will challenge Bray Wyatt for his WWE World Championship, but first tonight Bray has to face his former follower and a man he considered at one time to be his family; Luke Harper. We also have a contract signing for AJ Styles and Shane McMahon and more "lost footage" from Total Bellas so be sure to come back here at 8PM EST for what should be a great show!
-We start with the contract signing with AJ and Shane with Daniel Bryan standing by to make sure they don't fight. Shane and AJ come out and sit down, then Shane talks about the philosophy behind Smackdown! Live! and that no matter what happens at Mania, he thinks he's one of the greatest talents to ever be in a WWE ring and in that respect he is phenomenal. AJ says he knows he is and he agrees, Shane talking about the impact AJ has made since he debuted last year and that over time he became arrogant and it cost him against John Cena and Randy Orton. Shane says that he always manages to bring out the best in everyone he faces and that if AJ doesn't give him his best, he will lose the match before signing the contract. Shane passes the contract over to AJ after signing it and AJ asks Shane if he knows they're having a normal match and it's not no disqualification or a hell in a cell and Shane has never been in one.
AJ says that once you get in the ring with him you enter the world of AJ Styles and he's untouchable in the ring. They jump up and get face to face after AJ pushes the table away, Daniel saying that they should shake hands, but AJ leaves the ring before doing so as we go to commercial.
