After last night's edition of Smackdown, WWE taped their latest episode of Talking Smack. The show featured Sami Zayn, an appearance from The Street Profits, as well as a visit from Toni Storm. Check it out:
Talking Smack (9/4)
Kevin Patrick welcomes everyone to the show, and introduces viewers to his co-host, Matt Camp. Kevin and Matt cover a few of the highlights from Smackdown, including WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns’ successful title defense, as well as the latest chapter of the rivalry between Seth Rollins and Edge. Matt throws things over to Kayla Braxton in Jacksonville, Florida, who is with the first guest.
Sami Zayn
After defeating Dominik Mysterio for the second week in a row, Sami Zayn joins Kayla in Jacksonville. Kayla kicks off the interview by asking Sami how he feels, and “The Great Liberator” explains “I’m sure you wanted to come back here and ask me how it felt to lose. But you’re not.. it feels great to prove to everybody he isn’t on my level. He had all week to prepare, and he still couldn’t get the job done, because he’s not on my level!” Kayla points out that Dominik has been “resilient” over the last year, and she wonders if Sami believes Dom may come back back for more. Zayn tells Kayla “he’s a great rookie, and he can challenge me again, but you know what will happen? You’re gonna come right back here and ask me about the win.” Kayla pitches the show back over to Kevin and Matt, who sends the show to an ad break.
**Commercial Break**
⁃ On the other side of the break, clips are shown from Becky Lynch’s night on Smackdown.
⁃ Kevin tosses things back over to Kayla in the arena, where Toni Storm is standing by.
Toni Storm
The former NXT UK Women’s Champion joins Kayla in Florida, and Kayla begins by asking Storm about being a big fan of Rick Boogs. Toni says “He is like Eddie Van Halen in wrestling boots!” Toni is interrupted by Zelina Vega, who asks “how you could you turn down a Champion like Dolph Ziggler? Just look at you, are you a former champion?” Zelina runs down Kayla for a bit, and slides out of the picture. Kayla switches her focus back to Toni, and asks Storm what she’s enjoyed most about being on the blue brand so far. Toni tells Kayla “it’s been very interesting so far... I’m just a big fan of Boogs. He’s really cool!” Kayla follows up by asking who Toni looks forward to facing in the future, and Storm mentions “Bianca Belair, Becky Lynch, I got my eye on all the top girls... and now I guess I have my eye on Zelina Vega.” Kayla sends Talking Smack back to the studio, where the show heads to another commercial break.
**Commercial Break**
⁃ Matt recaps the latest happenings between Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar, until the final guest arrives in Florida.
The Street Profits
Kayla makes her presence felt one last time, and she’s backstage with the Street Profits. Kayla asks how each man is feeling after their Championship Contenders match ended in a disqualification, and Montez Ford explains “the Street Profits, the former Smackdown Tag Team Champions, we got to the seven-time Tag Team Champions. We made a statement!” Angelo Dawkins adds “somebody scared!” The Street Profits both sing “scary Uso’s,” until Kayla tosses the show over to the WWE Global Headquarters one last time.
⁃ Matt and Kevin share their final thoughts on last night’s Smackdown, until the show comes to a close.
