WWE SmackDown results are in!
WWE SmackDown on March 27 from PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh delivered one of the most eventful shows of the WrestleMania 42 season. Sami Zayn captured the United States Championship from Carmelo Hayes in a shocking moment, Cody Rhodes made his long-awaited return from injury to confront Randy Orton, and Orton capped the night by dropping Jelly Roll with an RKO before escaping through the crowd.
The show opened with Orton cutting a promo about shutting out the voices in his head for years but now embracing them again — telling the crowd he can no longer be held responsible for what happens next. Just as he was about to reveal the voice that has his ear, Matt Cardona interrupted and cracked him with a microphone. Orton would get his revenge later, defeating Cardona in the night’s main event.
The most unexpected moment of the night came when Sami Zayn turned a backstage conversation with Nick Aldis into a championship opportunity in real time. After being told there was no WrestleMania spot for him, Zayn walked away — then turned back and laid out Trick Williams before challenging for Hayes’ United States Championship. Zayn defeated Hayes to become the new champion and immediately had his WrestleMania match confirmed against Williams.
The women’s division also had a major moment when The Bella Twins defeated Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair with an assist from tag champions Nia Jax and Lash Legend, who attacked after the match — only for Bayley and Lyra Valkyria to make the save ahead of their title match on Raw. Giulia retained the Women’s United States Championship against Tiffany Stratton in a non-title showdown that was originally advertised as a title match. Jacob Fatu and Drew McIntyre had another intense confrontation, with Nick Aldis stepping in to book their WrestleMania match as an Unsanctioned bout with no DQ and no countout.
Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair vs. The Bella Twins — Winners: The Bella Twins (with assist from Nia Jax and Lash Legend). Rhea Ripley vs. B-Fab — No Contest after Jade Cargill and Michin interfered. Jelly Roll vs. Kit Wilson — Winner: Jelly Roll via Chokeslam. United States Championship: Carmelo Hayes (c) vs. Sami Zayn — Winner and NEW Champion: Sami Zayn. Women’s United States Championship: Giulia (c) vs. Tiffany Stratton — Winner: Giulia retains. Matt Cardona vs. Randy Orton — Winner: Randy Orton. The show closed with Cody Rhodes returning to confront Orton in the ring, security spectacularly failing to keep them apart, and Orton eventually breaking free to drop Jelly Roll with an RKO before
