WWE SmackDown Spoilers: Complete Results and Analysis for April 28

The drama between Roman Reigns and AJ Styles reached new heights on Raw, and Tuesday night, just 24 hours later, the Superstars were under the same roof as WWE rolled into Manchester, New Hampshire, for this week's SmackDown tapings.

Thanks to our friends at WrestlingInc.com, we have all the spoilers for you.

After coming to blows for the first time on Monday's broadcast, tensions between the two were as high as they could be without them actually taking to the squared circle for their WWE World Heavyweight Championship match. The question, as fans packed the arena for Tuesday's tapings, was whether they would be able to maintain their cool or whether their mounting issues would prove insurmountable.

Add an appearance on Miz TV for the controversial titleholder Reigns and the situation became even more explosive.

With talent such as Dean Ambrose, Sami Zayn, Baron Corbin and WWE women's champion Charlotte helping to round out a card stacked with immensely talented performers, SmackDown once again delivered a strong show on paper.

Will it convince you to tune in to this week's show, though?

Analysis

For The League of Nations, there really was nothing else for them to accomplish as a team, outside of holding all of the gold available to them. That is not happening now, or anytime soon, given the current WWE landscape, so it was no real surprise to see them split up.

What was a surprise, though, was that the split came in what is essentially a throwaway six-man tag team match. Why waste the breakup of three teammates, who were once integral parts of the main event not all that long ago, on a show widely considered the second-most important?

My assessment that it has nothing to do with any ongoing stories, and it will not have any effect on Sunday's Payback pay-per-view makes the timing even more curious.

The rest of the card looks like standard SmackDown fare in that the show almost always promises entertaining and quality matches, but there's a complete lack of storyline advancement.

That is, unless the idea is to come from out of nowhere to deliver what should be a much more significant split than it appears to be in execution.
