WWE SmackDown kicks off from inside the ThunderDome and it’s The Dirt Sheet with The Miz and John Morrison. Both men are already in the ring as Morrison welcomes everyone to the show. Morrison says it’s their duty to keep everyone up to date on the WWE Universe.

Miz says they will talk about the biggest secrets, the biggest stories. Tonight, they will expose the truth about Bayley’s savage attack on Sasha Banks, they will reveal the true reason WWE management tried to erase Sami Zayn from history. They will also dig into the Samoan family secrets that Jey Uso tried to bury. But first they are talking about the biggest story, Mandy Rose leaving SmackDown.

Morrison says it was so scandalous, you had to see it to believe it. We sere a clip from Talking Smack where Miz and Morrison announce that Mandy Rose is now on Raw. Miz says people accused him of being vindictive, that they have a problem with Otis and that he is trying to break them up. Miz says he is not playing mind games with Otis, he is not using his considerable power and influence to get some petty revenge. He is simply trying to help Otis. As a former Money in the Bank winner, he says you have to look for every opportunity possible. And Otis can’t do that with Mandy around.

Mi says his point is that Otis should be thanking him. He sent away the one true obstacle that was going to hold him back. Sure Otis is heart broken but he’ll get over it. And from what he hears from his friends on Raw, Mandy already has. Morrison says the guys over there want to do a lot more than just smell that rose.

Out comes Otis holding his two mini briefcases. He gets in the ring and takes Miz down. He knocks Morrison down too. Otis throws them both out of the ring and tosses the chairs.
