WWE SmackDown June 26 Summary
WWE SmackDown Orlando, Performance Center
– The show opens with a video on the career of the Undertaker, who recently announced his retirement from the rings. Commentators welcome us and the Superstars sing “Thank you Taker” on the stage. We review the beginnings of the Undertaker at the Survivor Series 1990.
– Several people pay tribute to the Undertaker throughout the evening.
– We are reviewing the Boneyard Match at WrestleMania 36 against AJ Styles.
– King Corbin is in the ring and he has something to say. The Undertaker’s last game occurred 30 years after its first game. Do we know why it was called a “Boneyard Match”? The Undertaker is an old pile of bones (word game in English: os = bones). He had a career of 30 years. We know how many years he spent kissing the ass of a certain family? He was part of the Kiss My Ass Club. Taker was the founder. A 30-year career, nobody does that. This is impossible unless it is incubated and protected by the owners. Protected for 30 years. He has been stealing money from this company for 20 years. He is a son of a selfish whore because he has put talents like him in the shade for a long time. Now he hears legends paying homage to the Undertaker and fools singing “Thank you Taker”. Corbin calls the Undertaker by his real name (Mark Callaway) and tells him that he fears. Jeff Hardy arrives from behind and attacks King Corbin.
– Behind the scenes, Jeff Hardy says that the Undertaker was a mentor and a teacher for him. Everyone owes him his gratitude. Since Taker is not here to answer, he will take care of Corbin. He’s deplored from Deadman University and he’s going to show off what he learned.

Gagnants : Lucha House Party et The New Day
– Behind the scenes, King Corbin asks how the Undertaker was the mentor of Jeff Hardy? To get in and out of prison? He will teach him a lesson. After tonight Hardy can rest in peace.
– Braun Strowman enters the ring and talks about the first time he met Bray Wyatt. For the first time in his life, he was afraid, a real fear. They were sitting on the edge of a swamp with Wyatt’s lantern on the water. A snake arrived near the lantern and Strowman wanted to kill him, but Wyatt stopped him and told him that he was a friend. Strowman did not understand. Bray Wyatt knelt in front of the snake and the snake bit him in the face. All Wyatt did was laugh. He laughed as the snake bit him several times. Strowman knew he was with a demon. He was neither poisoned nor bled. He just laughed. He knew Wyatt was the demon, he realized that Wyatt was the serpent. Strowman was overcome with emotion and started to do the work of the devil. In reality, he enjoyed doing it. We see images of this moment. Parts of him still do. He did everything he could to stop, but he’s still thinking about it. He can’t go on living like this. What does it say to end up at this swamp? There are only two options available for the end. He is going to be the biggest son of a bitch on this planet and he will come out with the satisfaction of having spit on the demon’s face. He will drag him through this swamp to finish him off. Does he want to go to the place of his creation? Strowman will transform it as the place in its destruction.
– The Sheamus toast in honor of Jeff Hardy originally planned for this week will take place next week.
– Lumberjack match

At the end of the match, King Corbin launches on Jeff Hardy against the stairs but Hardy avoids him and puts him back in the ring to make him his Swanton Bomb followed by the pinfall for the victory.
Winner: Jeff Hardy
– After the match, King Corbin attacks Jeff Hardy from behind but New Day enters the ring and makes him the Big Ending. Braun Strowman steps into the ring and performs a Powerslam for Corbin. Matt Riddle also goes into the ring and does a Floating Bro on Corbin. The show ends with a celebration of wrestlers.
