The Wyatt Sicks were in action against Andrade and Rey Fenix, Alexa Bliss took on Roxanne Perez, and both Jelly Roll and Logan Paul helped hype their upcoming tag match with Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre as their respective partners. WWE also took some time to pay tribute to the late Hulk Hogan following his death on Thursday.

Last Friday, John Cena attempted to wiggle his way out of defending the undisputed WWE championship against Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam. Rhodes attacked Cena, literally forcing the champion's hand to sign the contract for a street fight at the biggest event of the summer.

There was really no way around it — this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown opened with a tribute to the late Hulk Hogan, who died at 71-years-old just days ago. In the time since, many have struggled with how to handle his death.
