WWE taped the first Friday Night SmackDown episode of the new year, the January 2, 2015 edition, on Tuesday in Norfolk, Virginia. This will be the first televised WWE program of 2015.
The show begins with Edge and Christian, who apologize for what happened on Monday Night Raw, which ended with The Authority's return. Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury come out to say they would oversee the show for the night even though Edge and Christian booked it.
Bray Wyatt defeats Erick Rowan in the first match of the night with Sister Abigail. After the match, he cuts a promo on Dean Ambrose. The two will have their Ambulance Match on Raw on Monday.
Big Show defeats Ryback by count out thanks to a distraction from a Russian flag that descends from the ceiling, which allows Show to hit the KO Punch.
Cesaro and Tyson Kidd, the Masters of the WWE Universe, defeat Los Matadores. Kidd and Natalya bicker afterwards.
Dean Ambrose is supposed to face Curtis Axel, but the match never starts as Ambrose just beats the tar out of him before the bell even rings. He cuts a promo on Wyatt afterwards.
The Ascension gets its second win on the main roster, this time over some local enhancement talent.
The Usos and R-Truth defeat Goldust, Stardust, and Adam Rose.
Roman Reigns beats Rusev by disqualification when Big Show comes out and attacks Reigns. The two repeat the announce table attack from Raw, except Reigns gets the better of Show this time.
