The Miz made a surprise return tonight on WWE SmackDown, and probably bit off a little bit more than he could chew in the process.
Tonight on WWE SmackDown, Jacob Fatu was backstage cutting a promo about his match with Solo Sikoa at SummerSlam. He’s interrupted by The Miz, who claims Fatu put him on the shelf for the last six weeks, and he was tired of being disrespected.
Miz informs Fatu that he went to Nick Aldis and they have a match up next, before Fatu can respond, Miz slaps him in the face. Surprisingly, Fatu let Miz make his way to the ring before attacking him for that slap.

The match was exactly what you’d expect it to be, until the MFTs made their presence felt. This allowed the hometown boy the get the upper hand on Fatu.
But eventually, Fatu would recover and win the match with a pop-up Samoan Drop.
