WWE SmackDown Results: The latest episode of WWE SmackDown on May 9 witnessed intense action as the superstars continued to gear up for the upcoming WWE Backlash. This week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown aired live from the Nutter Center in Dayton, Ohio.

Randy Orton attacked John Cena with an RKO ahead of their clash at the WWE Backlash for the WWE Undisputed Championship title. Cena picked up the mic to address the crowd before attempting a sneak attack on Orton’s head. The Legend Killer countered with his finishing move and thrashed Cena on the deck.

The two veteran wrestlers then went on to insult each other. Cena even dragged Orton’s father and grandfather, questioning their legacy. The rivalry has been stellar between the two legendary superstars, and the face-off on Sunday could be their last bout against each other. Cena went on to make a huge remark, saying Orton would fail at Backlash just like his 2006 drug test.

In an interesting turn of events, a masked man suddenly appeared at the ringside and attempted an RKO on Cena, who shelled out an Attitude Adjust to counter the move. Orton then playfully copied Cena's "you can’t see me" gesture before producing another RKO.

Adding more to the action during the SmackDown episode, Alexa Bliss made a return and teamed up with Zelina Vega to clash against Chelsea Green and Piper Niven. Another tag team fight saw the Street Profits go head-to-head against Nathan Frazer and Axiom.

Jade Cargill and Nia Jax battled for the number one contender spot for the WWE Women’s title, whereas Damian Priest and LA Knight teamed up to face Jacob Fatu and Solo Sikoa in a tag team match.
