WWE SmackDown Results (August 2, 2024)

Cody Rhodes opened the show to a thunderous ovation in Cleveland.

Rhodes said he wants to talk to Solo Sikoa, who wasted little time making his way out alone.

Sikoa suggested making his match with Cody a Bloodline Rules match as Jackob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tona Loa surrounded the ring.

Cody said he isn't afraid of any of The Bloodline members and he accepted Solo's stipulation.
