WWE Smackdown: Dean Ambrose and Dolph Ziggler win main event

Dean Ambrose and Dolph Ziggler joined forces to beat Bray Wyatt and Erick Rowan on Tuesday’s Smackdown Live, although the partnership didn’t run altogether smoothly.

Ambrose and Ziggler, who will battle each other for the WWE Championship at SummerSlam, edged Wyatt and Rowan in the main event when Ziggler pinned Rowan.

However, their uneasy alliance had seen Ziggler accidently Superkick Ambrose at the start of the night and allow Wyatt to strike the reigning WWE Champion with Sister Abigail.

Ambrose did not forget Ziggler's error and laid out his SummerSlam rival with Dirty Deeds after the duo had won their tag-team match.

Randy Orton, meanwhile, blasted Alberto Del Rio with an RKO after the Mexican had got himself disqualified during their match by wrapping a steel chair around Orton's shoulder.

Plus, Heath Slater's hopes of earning a Smackdown contract were dashed yet again, firstly by Rhyno and then by himself!

Slater lost to Rhyno courtesy of a Gore but Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon were contemplating rewarding his valiant efforts with a deal - until he stormed out of the building.

Elsewhere, American Alpha knocked off a pair of local competitors before brawling with the rest of Smackdown's tag-team roster, including The Vaudevillains and The Ascension.

Becky Lynch's scheduled encounter with Eva Maire failed to take place after the latter suffered a wardrobe malfunction, leaving Smackdown newbie Alexa Bliss to step in and defeat Lynch with a moonsault.

Carmella prevailed on her Smackdown bow, too, overcoming Natalya with Code of Silence, while Baron Corbin attacked Kalisto backstage.
