WWE SmackDown Results 6/30 - Roman Reigns And Logan Paul Appear, Two Title Matches

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results of "WWE SmackDown" on June 30, 2023, coming to you from The O2 Arena in London, England!

In light of the implosion of The Bloodline over the course of the past few weeks, Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns will be appearing tonight with some final thoughts before he joins forces with Solo Sikoa to take on The Usos tomorrow night at WWE Money In The Bank.

Asuka will be defending the WWE Women's Championship on television for the first time as she takes on Charlotte Flair. Flair made her long awaited return on the June 9 episode of "SmackDown" and requested a title match, much to the dismay of Bianca Belair (who was dethroned by "The Empress").

Another title will also be on the line tonight, as Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens defend the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship against Pretty Deadly. Kit Wilson and Elton Prince secured their spot in the bout after winning a Number One Contenders Gauntlet Match on the June 16 edition of "SmackDown".

Before he competes in the Men's Money In The Bank Ladder match, Logan Paul will be making one last stop as he joins Grayson Waller on "The Grayson Waller Effect". Three other entrants also look to gain some momentum heading into the Men's Money In The Bank match, as LA Knight squares off with LWO's Santos Escobar and Butch of The Brawling Brutes.

Bayley will be putting her spot in the Women's Money In The Bank Ladder match on the line tonight against Shotzi. Bayley had initially defeated Michin on the June 9 edition of "SmackDown" to join Becky Lynch, Trish Stratus, Zoey Stark, Zelina Vega, and IYO SKY. However, the victory was short lived after SKY accepted Shotzi's challenge on Bayley's behalf the following week after the Damage CTRL leader cost her a match against Vega.

We are live! Michael Cole and Wade Barrett greet audiences at home as Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens head down to the ring. Pretty Deadly follows.

Zayn and Wilson begin the action. The bell rings and the two lock up. They go back and forth with submission holds before Zayn delivers an arm drag. Wilson rains down right hands, then tags in Prince. Prince sends Zayn's head crashing into the announce desk as the action spills to the outside.

Back from the break, Wilson delivers a knee to Zayn's throat and tags in Prince. Zayn lands a back body drop, then tags in Owens. Owens fires off right hands on Prince, then delivers a series of stomps and clotheslines him out of the ring. He then delivers a vicious clothesline to Prince before delivering one to Wilson and following it up with a senton.

Owens and Prince slide back in the ring, and Owens executes a cannonball. He sets up for a Stunner, but Prince escapes and delivers a pair of chop blocks. Wilson tags in and lands a Codebreaker with some assistance from Prince, then tags him back in. Pretty Deadly executes Spilt Milk and goes for a pin, but Zayn breaks the fall. Wilson tosses Zayn out of the ring, but Owens dumps him out and delivers a German suplex to Prince. Zayn and Wilson tag in, and Zayn lands a Blue Thunder Bomb. Prince and Wilson switch places using their apron technique, allowing Wilson to surprise Zayn and roll him up. Zayn kicks out, then catches him with an Exploder and sets up for the Helluva Kick. Prince tries interfering, but Owens delivers a Stunner. Zayn then delivers the Helluva Kick on Wilson for the win.

Winners (and still): Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens

Austin Theory then heads down to the ring. Ridge Holland follow. 

The bell rings and the two lock up. Holland sends Theory crashing into the corner, then delivers a right hand to his spine and follows it up with an uppercut. He lands a double underhook delayed vertical suplex and whips Theory into the corner. Theory sends Holland into the ring post shoulder first, then delivers a series of stomps. Holland responds with a series of double underhook suplexes, then delivers a forearm. Theory sends Holland's shoulder into the top rope, then delivers a shotgun dropkick for the win.

After the match, Theory continues to beat down Holland, but Sheamus runs down to the ring to make the save.

Back from the break, we head to a video recapping everything that has happened with The Bloodline over the past few months.

Back at ringside, Bayley and IYO SKY head down. Shotzi follows.

The bell rings and Bayley wastes no time. She delivers a kick to Shotzi's midsection, then delivers a right hand. Shotzi fires back with a Bulldog and a knee to Bayley's head, then follows it up with a kick to her head. Bayley slides out of the ring and strategizes with SKY, and Shotzi sets up for a tope suicida on both of them. Bayley ducks out of the way and SKY absorbs the maneuver.

The pair get back in the ring, and Bayley lands Bayley-to-Belly as we see Zelina Vega watching on from backstage. She goes for a pin, but Shotzi reverses the momentum. Bayley kicks out and rains down right hands, then sets up for a suplex. Shotzi counters into a DDT, then delivers a senton in the corner and follows it up with Sliced Bread. She goes for a pin, but SKY gets Bayley's foot on the bottom rope to break the fall. Shotzi gets in SKY's face, allowing Bayley to rake her eyes and deliver Rose Plant for the win.

Winner: Bayley

Back from the break, we see Shotzi blindside Bayley and IYO SKY backstage. SKY and Bayley gain the upperhand and suplex her into a table before Bayley cuts off one of her braids. 

Back at ringside, Grayson Waller is waiting in the ring.

Waller introduces Logan Paul, and Paul makes his way down to the ring.

Waller asks Paul what it would mean to him to win the Men's Money In The Bank match, and Paul says it would mean a whole lot in London. He says his dreams don't end until he captures gold, and when he wins the contract, he can call his shot on anyone he wants before adding that he might even smack LA Knight's head with the briefcase.

Knight's music hits, and he heads down to the ring. He tells Paul that while he's proven a lot with everything he's been given, that's the key. He says he hasn't been given anything, yet the world jumps to their feet because he made it that way. He says he respects that Paul can make a name for himself on social media, but he's standing in his ring and the odds are in his favor because he's the one and only megastar.

Paul asks who he is the megastar to, and says all he was supposed to be is a manager. He says Knight is lucky he's even addressing him.

LWO's music hits, and Santos Escobar marches down to the ring. He says while Paul wants the briefcase and Knight thinks he's won it, he needs it.

The Brawling Brutes' music hits, and Butch runs down to the ring. He levels Paul and brawls with him as Escobar levels Knight.

Back from the break, the bell has rung. Escobar and Butch are going at it in the ring before Knight joins the action and fires off stomps on Butch in the corner. Logan Paul has taken a seat at the announce desk, and Knight is sent tumbling onto the apron. He delivers a spear to both Escobar and Butch, then plants Butch. Escobar ascends to the top and goes flying to take down Knight, then delivers a hurricanrana to Butch. He catches Knight with one of his own, then delivers the running knees to both men and sits Butch on the top rope. He hits another hurricanrana and goes for a pin, but Knight kicks out. He then delivers an elbow drop to Escobar, then tosses Butch back in the ring and gets in Logan Paul's face. Escobar lands a tope suicida on Paul before Butch catches him with an enziguri. Escobar ascends to the top, but Butch catches him with a right hand and follows it up with The Bitter End for the win.

Winner: Butch

After the match, Butch grabs a ladder and looks to climb it. Knight dumps him out of the ring and looks to climb up himself, but Paul sends him shoulder first into the ring post and does the same. Butch dumps Paul out of the ring, then ascends to the top of the ladder and unhooks the Men's Money In The Bank briefcase.

Charlotte Flair then makes her way down to the ring. Asuka follows as we see Bianca Belair in the crowd holding up a ticket she bought to the show.

The bell rings and Flair fires off chops. She looks for a big boot, but Asuka counters into a German suplex. Flair delivers one of her own, then kips up. Asuka looks for the Asuka Lock, but Flair counters into a roll up. Asuka kicks out, and Flair catches her with a big boot. Asuka then lands a Backstabber.

Back from the break, Flair ascends to the top and sets up for a moonsault. Asuka rolls out of the way and delivers a kick to Flair's knee, but Flair fires back with a Spear and goes for a pin. Asuka kicks out and the action spills to the outside.

Flair climbs up to the top turnbuckle and delivers a moonsault, then follows it up with a series of chops in front of Belair. She looks for a big boot, but Asuka ducks out of the way and Flair hits Belair instead. She then plants Asuka onto the apron before an irate Belair interferes and rains down right hands on Asuka.

Winner: N/A (due to outside interference)

Belair clears the announce desk, but a frustrated Flair gets in Belair's face and tells her that it's her match. Belair hits her with a right, but Flair returns the favor. She then sends Flair into the ring post and plants Asuka on top of the announce desk with a KOD. She delivers another one to Flair that sends her crashing on top of Asuka.

Back from the break, Roman Reigns, Paul Heyman, and Solo Sikoa head down to the ring.

Reigns tells London to acknowledge him, then says it's been a long time. He says he's allowed The Usos to say that they're the ones for two years, but in reality, he's the one. He says he's the only one and calls himself the greatest of all time. He says he's the only one who loves and cares for The Usos, then says he gave them countless opportunities and allowed them into the promise land. He says he's the only one in his family willing to give them a second chance, and says he will give them as many chances as they need as long as they bow down to him, acknowledge him, and apologize.

The Usos' music hits, and Jimmy says Reigns has things twisted. He asks if Reigns really thinks they're trying to get back in The Bloodline, and says they're past acknowledging and apologizing. He asks Reigns if he's thought about the consequences of losing, then says he'll get pinned tomorrow night. Jey says Reigns will be the only one out tomorrow night and says he won't be Tribal Chief anymore when he loses. Jey and Jimmy say they don't want to assume Reigns' role, but Sikoa has their vote to do so.

Reigns asks The Usos if they think this is a game before he begins berating Jey. He tells him he is nothing without him, and Jey shoves him. Jimmy then catches him with a superkick before Sikoa dumps Jimmy out of the ring. Jey rains down right hands on Reigns as officials run down to the ring to break things up. Reigns delivers a Superman Punch to Jey, and all four men continue brawling as the show goes off the air.
