WWE/NXT Live Event Reports, Oct. 4-8: The Club Reunites, MMA Horsewomen, Riddle, Ricochet, Much More!
It was a quiet week on the road — aside from the trip halfway around the world to Australia — for WWE.
With headliners from both Raw and SmackDown headed to the Super Show-Down in Australia, there was just one house show for the main roster: a SmackDown event in Louisville that marked the reunion of the Club — AJ Styles, Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows — in a six-man tag.
NXT stayed close to home in Florida. Highlights of the loop included two of the MMA Horsewomen, Mariana Shafir and Shayna Baszler, tagging together; another singles win for Matt Riddle, who also joined forces with Johnny Gargano for a tag match later on the loop; and a six-man tag battle involving the Undisputed ERA facing Ricochet, Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan.
Here are all the results.
