As previously reported, Jey Uso was arrested on Sunday in Hidalgo County, Texas for a DUI. He was bonded out shortly after the arrest.

WWE issued the following statement on the arrest:

“Joshua Fatu is responsible for his own personal actions. We are investigating the matter and awaiting information from local law enforcement officials.”

As of this writing, Jey is still scheduled to be at tonight’s SmackDown tapings and The Usos are still set to defend the SmackDown Tag Team Titles against Shelton Benjamin & Chad Gable in a 2 of 3 Falls Match at the upcoming Royal Rumble event.

Welcome to SmackDown Live after a huge episode of Monday Night Raw!

Last night on Raw, Shane McMahon came to Monday Night Raw and brought with him the entire SmackDown Live roster, who destroyed everyone they came across backstage. It was a huge shot across the bow ahead of Survivor Series, where Team Raw will face Team SmackDown Live. Kurt Angle was not expecting the shots-fired by Shane McMahon, and it’s first blood to the blue brand. However, is Raw going to retaliate? Surely the red brand will want to extract revenge but will it be tonight? Also, are Shane and Kurt the team captain’s? That seemed to be the implication last night but I hope to get some confirmation on tonight’s show.

Elsewhere on tonight’s show, AJ Styles looks to make a mark on Jinder Mahal as he battles Sunil Singh. Styles’s WWE Championship challenge is impending but right now Mahal is focused on Brock Lesnar, which could leave Styles with a great opportunity to catch him off-guard. Styles has had a hard weekend, flying from South America to compete against Finn Balor, then he teamed with Rollins and Ambrose at the beginning of Raw, only to join SmackDown Live as they obliterated Raw. Styles could be exhausted from all the travel and fighting, but he should have enough in the tank to off one of the Singh Brothers, but two of them? Perhaps not.

A huge 8-man tag team match also features on tonight’s SmackDown Live. The Uso’s team with The New Day to take on Rusev, Aiden English, Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin. These 8 have had some troubles as of late and they look to settle their differences on tonight’s show. It will be interesting to see New Day and Uso’s teaming for the first time, which could signal a babyface turn for The Uso’s, and maybe even a heel turn for Gable and Benjamin.

Also on tonight’s SmackDown Live, a new episode of The Fashion Files, Shane McMahon returns to face Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens, and Baron Corbin battles Sin Cara! Remember to download the Ringside Talk app and let us know your thoughts and feelings. Enjoy the show!

Zack Ryder and Mojo Rawley took to their Twitter accounts to react to their loss to Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin in the Hell in a Cell Kickoff Pre-show Show.

Staying Hyped isn't about always being energetic. It's about always coming back for more, even if the losses keep stacking up. @WWE #HIAC

The post Hype Bros. React to Loss at Tonight’s WWE Hell in a Cell Event appeared first on Wrestling News & WWE News, Rumors & Spoilers.

The past episode of SmackDown Live we saw what looked like a discord between The Hype Bros. Zack Ryder refused to shake hands with Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin after losing his match, and walked away from his partner, Mojo Rawley.

Rawley spoke with Dispatch with Sergio Jordann about Zack Ryder turning his back on him. Rawley says it was not the most “sportsman thing” from Zack but sometimes one can lose their cool because of frustration and things like this can happen and it’s not a big deal for him.

“As far as Zack goes, it wasn’t the most sportsman thing I’ve ever seen, walking away and turning your back on a competitor who’s offering a friendly hand. At the same time, this business is tough, you got a lot of people depending on you and you got a lot of pressure on you. These losses, when they mount up it’s hard to keep your cool. Sometimes you lose your cool, you lose your focus and moments like that happen. Not making excuses for him, obviously I would’ve rather he had not done that. But at the same day, it’s a little bit of frustration, it happens. Leave it out there, move on, forget about it and just keep it moving.”

Rawley says The Hype Bros have their eyes are on the Tag Team Championships and they both want to be WWE Champions as well.
Rawley then commented on his friendship with Charlotte, stating that Charlotte is like a “sister” to him and both of them have a lot of similarities.

“Charlotte and I started like the same day, so we came in together, we were trained together, she’s like a sister to me. We have shows on SmackDown Saturday through Tuesday every week and we have long drives in between, so you partner up with friends in the car. Charlotte and I did a week together a week or two ago and we just had a blast catching up… She’s great, she cracks me up, she’s so funny, her and I are so much alike. Sometimes it’s difficult with our work schedules to really get that free time outside of the ring and travel. But for us, having those long car rides together, that’s hanging out. Sometimes that’s the only free time we get, so we make the most of it.”

Welcome to SmackDown Live for the final time in August 2017!

Last week, Kevin Owens got one more chance to face AJ Styles for the WWE United States Championship, and he got to choose the referee for the match. Owens ended up choosing Baron Corbin as the referee but things didn’t go as planned when Shane McMahon came down to make sure officiating was being done right. Corbin stormed off and Shane ran in to count the final pinfall that means Kevin Owens will never again get to face AJ Styles for the US Championship. Owens was not happy at all and tonight he may be on the warpath, Shane McMahon had better watch out.

AJ Styles on the other hand, is not without an opponent. For weeks Styles has been talking about doing an open challenge like Cena did a few years ago but so far it hasn’t happened. Tonight seems like the night when Styles challenge is laid out and someone answers the call, and that’s a really exciting prospect. Let us know who you would like to see accept Styles’ challenge, be it Sami Zayn or Aleister Black!

Elsewhere on tonight’s show, the new team of Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin are set to make their debut. This team was formed last week thanks to Daniel Bryan and has all the makings of a top-tier WWE team that could challenge The Uso’s for the gold at some point. Gable is a genius in the ring and Shelton Benjamin is an athletic madman and fans will most likely have forgotten how good he is.

Bobby Roode debuted on last week’s SmackDown in a fantastic segment that the fans lost their minds over. It’s difficult to tell if Roode is a babyface or a heel right not but it really doesn’t matter because he’s here to make SmackDown glorious. Dolph Ziggler returned to SmackDown last week and gave a scathing promo on all the other stars on the roster, before saying he would debut next week. Well, next week has arrived and it’s time for Dolph to put or shut-up on this latest run of his.

That’s the preview for tonight’s show! Let us know if you’re excited on the free Ringside Talk app, and, as always, enjoy the show!
