The legendary Luchador had quite the ovation, as expected, welcoming the WWE Universe to SmackDown. He soon officially declared for the 2025 Men&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/01\/10\/wwe-womens-championship-match-set-for-next-weeks-wwe-smackdown\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Royal Rumble<\/a>, reminiscing about his 2006 win that he dedicated to the late Eddie Guerrero. Kevin Owens would interrupt the proceedings, stating that as the &#8220;real&#8221; Undisputed WWE Champion, he hopes Mysterio wins the Rumble so he could fulfill his dream of facing him. Rey Mysterio stated that K.O.&#8217;s not the champion; he&#8217;s delusional, leading to Owens snapping and hightailing before he could be embarrassed further by the hall of famer.<\/li>\n<li>We see Bianca Belair and Naomi backstage, still searching for Jade Cargill&#8217;s attacker. They&#8217;re also up against Nia Jax and Candice LeRae in tag action before we went to the break. Once the show was back, we saw Nick Aldis greenlight Mysterio and Owens for tonight as Cody Rhode entered the fray, looking to get cleared. Rey Mysterio stated that he had Kevin Owens tonight, and the champ should focus on getting better. Nick Aldis also wants Rhodes and Owens to sign an addendum to prevent what happened at WWE Saturday Night&#8217;s Main Event.<\/li>\n<li>Back in the ring, Bianca Belair and Naomi make their entrance, with Jax and LeRae waiting in the ring. It was a fun back-and-forth tag team match, with Belair and Naomi winning over Jax and LeRae after a miscue that saw Nia Leg Drop LeRae by accident, leading to the WWE Women&#8217;s Tag Team Champions capitalizing and picking up the victory.<\/li>\n<li>Next up, Jimmy Uso takes on Carmelo Hayes. Uso made his way to the ring in style, issuing a stern warning that he wanted singles gold, and this was the first step towards achieving that. The first meeting between these two was an amazing display of each competitor&#8217;s skills. Unfortunately, as Jimmy Uso was just about to win the match, Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga hit the ring and dismantled Jimmy, leading to a no-contest. Hayes would try to buddy up to them only to eat a vicious Clothesline from the &#8220;Samoan Werewolf.&#8221; After one more sickening Hip Attack to Jimmy Uso, Solo Sikoa&#8217;s music hit, signaling the return of The Bloodline&#8217;s prodigal son to Friday nights.<\/li>\n<li>Solo Sikoa spent most of his time in the ring reveling in the boos of the WWE Universe. When everyone thought he was basking in the hate, Sikoa would exit the venue without saying a thing, leading to Jacob Fatu going off and giving the fans a piece of his mind. This was soon interrupted by a revenge-seeking LA Knight, then Braun Strowman to even up the odds for the &#8220;Megastar.&#8221; It seems like these four are on their way to an inevitable collision course.<\/li>\n<li>Backstage, we see Santos Escobar going over the game plan with Los Garza as they take on the Motor City Machine Guns. Both teams showed out in this one, and it was up in the air for literally most of the match. MCMG almost dropped the ball when Pretty Deadly interfered. But the veterans managed to recuperate fast, get rid of the distraction, and win for the 2nd week in a row with Skull and Bones.<\/li>\n<li>Piper Niven quickly crushed B-Fab, leading to a pinfall victory. After the match, Women&#8217;s United States Champion Chelsea Green and Niven would beat down B-Fab, only for Michin to hit the ring and scare them off.<\/li>\n<li>The match setup earlier in the night between Kevin Owens and Rey Mysterio was up. For most of the match, Owens was in the driver&#8217;s seat. Rey would pick up momentum in the latter stages of the bout. However, with Kevin Owens stumbling, he hit the ref inadvertently, which caused Mysterio to fall off the ropes. Soon after, K.O. capitalized and hit him with the Pop-Up Powerbomb for the pin. Owens did not stop there; he would set up Mysterio for the Package Piledriver. Fortunately, Cody Rhodes was there just in time, and the two bitter enemies exchanged shots all over the ringside arena before they were pulled apart.<\/li>\n<li>For the main event of the evening, WWE Women&#8217;s Champion Tiffany Stratton defends her title for the first time since winning it against Bayley. Stratton and Bayley battered each other, pulling out all the stops. Both were locked in, for the most part. Unfortunately, a temporary distraction by <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/01\/10\/wwe-nxt-roxanne-perez-main-roster-debut\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Roxanne Perez<\/a> may have cost Bayley her chance to regain the title. The two would continue the showdown for a while. But in the end, Tiffany Stratton would hit the Alabama Slam, followed up by the Prettiest Moonsault Ever to end the night and notch her first successful title defense.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">A PILEDRIVER AGAIN?! \ud83d\ude31<\/p>\n<p>Looks like <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FightOwensFight?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@FightOwensFight<\/a>&#8216;s &#8220;dream match&#8221; just turned into a nightmare \ud83d\udc40<a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CodyRhodes?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@CodyRhodes<\/a> <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/SmackDown?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#SmackDown<\/a> <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sR5lef3Vwv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/sR5lef3Vwv<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 WWE (@WWE) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1880455442800791684?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">January 18, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2><strong><em>That&#8217;s all for the WWE SmackDown results for January 17th, 2025.
