WWE Friday Night SmackDown Results
February 19, 2021
St. Petersburg, Florida (Tropicana Field)
Commentary: Michael Cole and Corey Graves
Results by: Roy Nemer of Wrestleview.com

WWE SmackDown kicks off with Royal Rumble winner Edge. He makes his way down to the ring and cuts a promo about how Roman Reigns will defend his WWE Universal Championship at the Elimination Chamber against which ever superstar will survive the Chamber. As he’s talking, Roman’s music hits and out he comes.

Roman along with Paul Heyman and Jey Uso get in the ring. Roman tells him Edge can pick a main eventer or he can pick the main event for WrestleMania. Edge tells him last week, Roman said he looked in Edge’s eyes and saw fear. But what he saw wasn’t fear, it was someone playing him. Edge says he can’t acknowledge him as the main event. A few weeks ago, he saw Roman lose his cool. That confirmed to him that he needs Edge to be in the main event of WrestleMania.

Edge says he looks at Roman and sees he is insecure. He says Roman is in his prime, a generational talent, he respects Roman and his family. But he got too much too soon, he is cracking under the pressure and that is pressure he hasn’t even put on him yet. Edge asks him if he wants him to put that pressure on him and to check his ego. Edge asks why he’s not answering him.

Out comes Sami Zayn. Sami says this is amazing as it’s one thing to be disrespected every week by WWE management but to be disrespected by Edge and Roman, that is something else. Sami tells Edge that he acts as if it’s a forgone conclusion that Roman will be champion at WrestleMania. And Roman doesn’t see the threat in front of him. Sami says WWE management didn’t want him in the Chamber match but he fought his way in and that should worry them both.

Sami says once upon a time, he was the ultimate opportunist. But he is a master at strategy and that should worry him. And Roman is looking at the Champion of the people. He points at the WrestleMania sign and says Sami is going to WrestleMania. As he’s talking, Jey hits him with the superkick.

Heyman takes the Championship from Roman as Roman puts his hands behind his back and whispers into Edge’s ear. Roman backs away as he, Heyman and Jey leave the ring.

WWE Intercontinental Champion Big E makes his way down to the ring.

Back from commercial, Big E is taken out on a stretcher.

Out comes Seth Rollins. He says what happened to Big E was a tragedy. Being betrayed by your friends is a tragedy. And that’s what happened to him last week. They all turned their backs on him and walked away and that is a tragedy. He says he understands Big E’s pain and if you don’t believe him, here’s the footage. We see a clip from last week where Rollins was in the ring and the WWE superstars were surrounding the ring and left midway into Seth’s speech.

Rollins says that’s emotional trauma. He is still suffering and it’s unacceptable at the work place and anywhere else. He says he had to do something about it. He and his lawyers drafted a letter, a formal complaint that has been delivered to WWE officials. He says legal action is pending but they will win. He says the reason he did it is because as he stated in his letter, months and months went into planning his big moment. His return to SmackDown and it was ruined by a bunch of losers. A bunch of cowards who ruined it because they are afraid. They want to divide them and they’re afraid because there’s already millions of them out there who have already embraced the vision for a better tomorrow, a better SmackDown.

Seth says they will win because they are strong and powerful. And the biggest loser is Cesaro because he took their moment, their homecoming and he made it about himself. He disrespected them, he patronized them, he stayed behind when everyone left just to look him in the eyes and disrespect him. And what happened to Cesaro is not his fault. It’s Cesaro’s fault. And that’s what will happen to anyone who stands in their way. Because they are strong, they are powerful, they are winners. Seth says to embrace the vision.

Kevin Owens is backstage and in comes Edge. He tells Owens that they are alike. They get knocked down but get back up. Owens says thanks and Edge would understand him because the past year Edge must have been obsessing over his comeback. And the last two months have been hell for him, he’s come close to being champion. And all he wants is to win the Chamber, beat Roman and have that title. Edge wishes him good luck and says it would be good to face him at WrestleMania.

Sonya DeVille along with Adam Pearce and WWE officials are bringing Big E into the ambulance.
