WWE Smackdown quick results: Drew McIntyre ruins Bloodline celebration

Check out WWE SmackDown results for the September 2, 2022 episode, including a celebration of the two-year title run of Roman Reigns.

Before there can be a Clash, there must be a final Smack … Down.

OK that wasn’t a great lede, we realize. But look, we’re already looking forward to WWE Clash at the Castle, and we’re sure lots of fans are too. SmackDown isn’t even live this week, given the travel involved to Wales, so this week’s episode was taped after last Friday’s live show in Pittsburgh. The results have been out there in spoilers posts for a while.

So while we’re not going to do the usual full-court press on this one, we are going to recap what happened, at least in bullet points. Don’t forget: If you’re a fan in the U.S., Clash at the Castle starts early for you on Saturday: 1:00 p.m. ET, 10:00 a.m. PT.
