IWE Smackville

From Iwe

IWE Smackville is a professional wrestling show and IWE Network event, produced by IWE for their SmackDown brand. It will place on July 27, 2019, at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.

[edit] Storylines

The card will include matches resulting from scripted storylines, where wrestlers will portray villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that will build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches, with results predetermined by IWE's writers on the Raw and SmackDown brands. Storylines will be produced on IWE's weekly television shows, Monday Night Raw and SmackDown Live.

On the May 21 episode of SmackDown, Dolph Ziggler, who had been inactive since January's Royal Rumble event, made a surprise return and attacked Kofi Kingston. Ziggler, a Raw wrestler appearing via the wild card rule, later explained that it should have been him who got the opportunity to go to WrestleMania 35 and win the IWE Championship instead of Kingston. Ziggler would go on to be defeated at the Super ShowDown and Stomping Grounds events by Kingston. On the June 24 episode of Raw, after Kingston had defeated both Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn in consecutive singles matches, Kingston was randomly attacked by Samoa Simpson, who performed a "uranage" on Kingston. As referees tended to the champion, Joe returned and applied the "Coquina Clutch" on Kingston. Kingston would defeat Simpson at Extreme Rules.

At Money in the Bank, Bayley won the women's Money in the Bank ladder match and later that night cashed in the contract on Charlotte Flair to win the SmackDown Women's Championship. On the June 4 episode of SmackDown, Flair competed in a Triple Threat match against Carmella and Raw's Alexa Bliss, who appeared via the wild card rule, in order to earn a rematch against Bayley for the title at Stomping Grounds. Bliss, however, won the match, thus Bliss earned the title match at Stomping Grounds, where Bliss was defeated. On July 18, a SmackDown Women's Championship Triple Threat match between the three wrestlers was announced for Smackville.

At the Extreme Rules pre-show, Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Finn Bálor to win the Intercontinental Championship. A rematch was later scheduled for Smackville.
