The June 26, 2020 Edition of Smackdown Live was a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE's Smackdown brand which took place on June 26, 2020 at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida.
Summary[]
A SmackDown Women’s Championship opportunity was on the line as a quartet of the blue brand’s top Superstars met in a Fatal 4-Way Match. The intensity was high from the start with all four Superstars shining at different moments of the clash. The determined Nikki Cross couldn’t be denied after Lacey Evans delivered a Woman’s Right to Dana Brooke but left herself open for the pin.
A collection of the blue brand’s best tandems was on display in a heated Eight-Man Tag Team Match. A week after a win over the high-flying duo, The New Day teamed up with Lucha House Party against two pairs of rivals in The Miz, John Morrison, Shinsuke Nakamura & Cesaro. Nakamura gave his team the upper hand with some devious tactics outside the ring against Kofi Kingston, but Big E began pancaking opponents. An insane aerial display from Lince Dorado & Gran Metalik took out Miz & Morrison and secured the win.
Following King Corbin’s despicable disrespect to the legendary Undertaker to open SmackDown, Jeff Hardy came calling, and a match was set between the two competitors. Blue brand Superstars surrounded the ring to honor the legacy of The Deadman and cheer on The Charismatic Enigma. Corbin flexed his muscle at times, but the gritty Hardy would not be denied, as Big E, Kofi Kingston, Braun Strowman and Matt Riddle all took the opportunity to punish the outspoken Superstar after the match.
