WWE went all out to make this an exciting episode of Friday Night SmackDown in San Jose, California, as the fans were treated to two separate in-ring debuts tonight.

Earlier in the night, former AEW star Royce Keys made his first appearance since the Royal Rumble and defeated Berto of Los Garza to get his SmackDown career on a winning start.

Later on, The Miz and Kit Wilson went up to the SmackDown General Manager, Nick Aldis, and asked for a rematch for the WWE Tag Team Championships after Danhausen accidentally cursed the referee last week.

However, the duo was in for a huge surprise as Aldis instead booked Kit Wilson for Danhausen’s in-ring WWE debut. The former Pretty Deadly member took on Danhausen on tonight’s episode.

The duo had an interesting match going on, which Wilson began dominating after The Miz caused multiple interruptions during the match. He was about to go for a top rope elbow drop before things changed in Hausen’s favor.

He cursed Kit Wilson once again during the match, and the pyro went off on the same turnbuckle Wilson was standing on. This caused Wilson to be almost unable to fight, leading to Danhausen taking him out with a big boot and earning his first WWE win.
