WWE SmackDown video highlights: Kofi pins Bryan in six-man tag


Last night’s SmackDown saw Kofi Kingston pin WWE Champion Daniel Bryan for the second straight week.
Kingston teamed with AJ Styles & Jeff Hardy to defeat Bryan, Samoa Joe & Randy Orton in last night’s main event. Kingston pinned Bryan after hitting Trouble in Paradise, and WWE then confirmed that Kingston will challenge for Bryan’s title at Fastlane.
Kingston eliminated Bryan in last week’s gauntlet match. They were then the final two in Sunday’s Elimination Chamber match, with Bryan retaining his title.
The SmackDown Women’s Champion was also pinned when Asuka faced Mandy Rose in a non-title match last night. Rose faked an eye injury and rolled up Asuka to get the win.
After they debuted on Monday, Johnny Gargano, Tommaso Ciampa, Ricochet, and Aleister Black were again in action on SmackDown. Gargano & Ciampa teamed against Cesaro & Sheamus, Ricochet faced Eric Young, and Black took on Andrade.
