The road to WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event and WWE Clash In Italy continues tonight.
WWE SmackDown takes place at 8/7c on USA Network this evening, live from Columbia, SC.
‘WWE Then. Now. Forever. Together.’ airs to get things started as always. Joe Tessitore welcomes us to the show on commentary as we see the usual show-opening Superstar arrival shots, including Trick Williams inside an empty college football stadium in the middle of the field. A WWE Backlash recap package airs.
Trick Williams & Lil Yachty Kick Things Off
Live inside the arena, the lights go out and then the familiar sounds of Trick Williams’ them hits. The WWE United States Champion emerges to loud “Whoop that Trick!” chants. Out behind him comes Lil Yachty and the local team mascot. He makes his way to the ring to kick off this week’s show. The crowd are waving mini-white towels.
“Straight outta South Car, and don’t know how to act,” he begins, before mentioning the local high school and the University of South Carolina and the local streets he grew up on as the hometown hero. He reminisces about the chicken wings and special sauce he would consume back in the day.
