Hi, I'm Donna, the editor for WWE at EssentiallySports. I help our writers dot their i's, cross their t's, and ensure they get all their facts straight. I am particularly invested in the world of wrestling since it's unlike any other sport currently televised. The thought put behind orchestrating wacky storylines and building hype for months on end is incredible and something that I enjoy keeping track of. Particularly, I like the shenanigans Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio get up to as part of The Judgment Day, as well as watching what up-and-coming talents have to offer over at NXT.

During my time at ES, I have been doing live coverage of WWE SmackDown which currently hosts our ?Head of the Table? Roman Reigns. Prior to this, I worked as a reporter for a national newspaper, covering investigative stories on education, space, science, and tech. While these might seem worlds apart, I still enjoy getting into the nitty gritty of stories here at ES, picking apart details and finding out facts about wrestlers that most would overlook. In my spare time, I enjoy delving into my hobbies: writing, drawing, or just goofing off with my cat.

On the latest episode of SmackDown on December 1st, the newly crowned US Champion Logan Paul announced an 8-man tournament to announce his next opponent. Kevin Owens was one of the 8 participants. He fought rookie Grayson Waller for the #1 contender spot. However, during the match, Waller attacked Owens’ hands which may have caused an unfortunate injury. WWE PROVIDES AN UPDATE ON THE HEALTH STATUS OF KEVIN OWENS WWE tweeted a picture of Kevin Owens from this week’s SmackDown on 2nd December. The caption for the tweet read, “UPDATE: @fightowensfight has sustained an injury, fracturing his 4th and 5th metacarpal during #SmackDown last night.” Owens suffered the injury on his right hand. It is a common injury that is often caused by falls, or direct impacts. Despite winning the match, it will cost Owens any further participation in the tournament. WWE is yet to announce a further replacement for him though. 

WWE announced an injury update on a former WWE Champion after they suffered an injury on their hand while wrestling at SmackDown this week.

Himangshu Sinha is a WWE reporter at EssentiallySports who is a beast at keeping up with the latest in the wrestling world.

He enjoys covering the lives of wrestlers, often poring over interviews, podcasts, and overlooked details to back his writing. While he maintains a respect for Gunther, LA Knight, and The Tribal Chief, in his mind, no one can beat one of AEW’s Best Friends, Orange Cassidy. When it comes to the latest speculations or whose podcast you need to listen to to get the hottest gossip, Himangshu is the trustworthy hand. When he’s not writing, Himangshu is also an avid badminton, cricket, and carrom player, and is also a piano virtuoso.

admire Gunther and LA Knight. Outside of WWE, I like the freshly squeezed juicy
performance of AEW star Orange Cassidy. I have been lucky enough to cover nearly
all of my favorities during my time here at ES. I have worked on a number of
interesting stories ranging from why Cody Rhodes is called ?The American
Nightmare? and speculating when will Jade Cargill make her in-ring debut for

<h2>WWE SmackDown 2021: Latest News, WWE Rumors, Results</h2>
Probably the most popular brand in WWE right now, SmackDown has come a long way since it started off as a brand extension to Raw. The Blue brand has seen some of the best Superstars to ever step foot in the ring and continues to host the best fights in WWE.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://mms.businesswire.com/media/20190812005320/en/737919/5/SmackDown_Crowd.jpg" alt="WWE? and FOX Sports Celebrate SmackDown's 20th Anniversary on October 4 | Business Wire" data-noaft="1" />

The event may be your weekly Friday Night watch, but you may not know why it started in the first place.
<h2>History</h2>
SmackDown was initially introduced in 1999 to compete with WCW?s Thunder that aired on Thursdays. This sub-branch to Raw was going to be a second home for WWE Superstars.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BNmJiZWIxYzEtNGZlZS00YTBmLWExZGItYThlMzIxZjIwYjNlXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyOTA0NzE2MzA@._V1_.jpg" alt="WWE Smackdown! (1999-)" data-noaft="1" />

The first episode of SmackDown took place in a Raw ring until it got its own theme.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

A young and fiery Dwayne ?The Rock? Johnson was moved to SmackDown to hold up the flag for WWE. These were arguably his golden years, where his segments were going viral.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/gallery_img_l/public/all/2016/11/004_8.26.99-004--6a6f334bf95da505967bcce6c00db032.jpg" alt="100 Definitive Photos of The Rock | WWE" data-noaft="1" />

The Rock made SmackDown his own brand and even claimed that it was named after him. This was due to his previously introduced catchphrase ?Laying the Smackdown?.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>
<h3>Victory over WCW</h3>
WCW Thunder could not compete with SmackDown at all and was forced to move to Wednesdays. Unlike the long and fierce battle between Raw and Nitro, SmackDown had won its side of the battle already.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/gallery_img_l/public/all/2017/10/006_WM16_04022000_0657b--4a46fccda63f677e23004a9dcbb0b13a.jpg" alt="Stephanie McMahon &amp; Triple H through the years: photos | WWE" data-noaft="1" />

Following WWE?s victory in the Monday Night Wars and the subsequent acquisition of WCW, SmackDown was moved to Friday nights in 2005. This was possible only because the popular show <em>Star Trek: Enterprise</em> had been canceled.

Taking its slot, WWE renamed SmackDown to Friday Night SmackDown to emphasize the change in airing day.

Since then, SmackDown has seen a steady rise in viewership. At its peak from 2002-2005, the show pulled in an average viewership of 5 million!

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200617231732/undertaker-wrestlemania.png" alt="You Pushed the Limits Yesterday" data-noaft="1" />

This made it the second-highest-rated series behind America?s Next Top Model.

The SmackDown Logo has now permanently adopted a blue theme, which is reminiscent of the one it originally started off with in 1999.
<h3>Lockdown Success</h3>
During the pandemic, the brand has been able to somehow maintain pre- lockdown numbers and is doing steadily well. The impressive rise in numbers following the introduction of ThunderDome is commendable.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/og_image/public/2020/08/20200821_SD_Vid_Seg11_InterconAlt--37d932e39ba9504ebaad96e043156148.jpg" alt="Jeff Hardy vs. AJ Styles ? Intercontinental Championship Match: SmackDown, August 21, 2020 | WWE" data-noaft="1" />

SmackDown, once being the subsidiary of Raw, has taken over the main show and is now the leading brand in terms of viewership.

The two brands compete annually at Survivor Series in a massive SmackDown vs Raw showdown.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/og_image/public/2020/05/20191011_Smackdown_TheFiend--273df341293e9636428bf3c0e3a9e9eb.jpg" alt="The Fiend? Bray Wyatt drags Seth Rollins to hell: SmackDown, Oct. 11, 2019 | WWE" data-noaft="1" />

The show is set to float through the pandemic in calm waters. If you ever need consistently good content every week, tune in to SmackDown every Friday Night.
<h2>WWE Smackdown Roster</h2>
The SmackDown roster has upheld its standards of having the best even today.

The WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns is the dominant figure of the roster. His recent return has made him more popular than ever before.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://img.bleacherreport.net/img/images/photos/003/883/705/5b312eb73369f7714ee448e39700122a_crop_exact.jpg?w=1200&amp;h=1200&amp;q=75" alt="Backstage WWE and AEW Rumors: Latest on Roman Reigns, Raw Creative and More | Bleacher Report | Latest News, Videos and Highlights" data-noaft="1" />

The SmackDown Women?s Champion Sasha Banks is another prominent figure in the division. Her massive feud with Bayley shot up the ratings for SmackDown.

Intercontinental Champion Big E also makes the headlines for this roster.

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://cdn.gouki.com/scoreboard-image-wwe/d41ebc72f13d43d4b046486869db5af9.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" data-iml="30489" />

Other big names from SmackDown include Bayley, Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Rey Mysterio, and Bianca Belair.

(Photo by JP Yim/Getty Images)[/caption]
<h2 style="text-align: center">Kevin Owens 2022: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Kevin Yanick Steen, better known to the WWE Universe as Kevin Owens, is a professional wrestler from Quebec, Canada, currently signed to the Raw brand of the WWE. Owens is widely regarded as one of the best talents of the modern era with his fan following almost assuming a cult status.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Coming from a humble background, Owens had to cut his teeth on the independent circuit before even dreaming of the bright lights of WWE. However, such was his dedication, that despite not knowing a word of English as a child due to his native language being French, he watched episodes of Raw to learn the language. Contrast that with today when he is considered one of the best talkers in all of sports entertainment.</p>


[caption id="attachment_451609" align="alignnone" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-451609 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1170069748.jpg" alt="Owens during a Live event" width="1920" height="1280" /> MARCO POLO ORTOGAS, PASIG CITY, METRO MANILA, PHILIPPINES - 2019/09/20: WWE Universal Champion Kevin Owens had a meet and greet session with the members of the media in Manila last September 20 to promote the upcoming WWE Live Event at the Araneta Coliseum later that night. (Photo by Dennis Jerome Acosta/Pacific Press/LightRocket via Getty Images)[/caption]
<p style="text-align: center">Kevin began his career with the ring name Kevin Steen which gave him widespread popularity in the independent circuit. Along with his best friend Sami Zayn, he dominated the rosters of Ring of Honor and Pro Wrestling Guerilla. He began his career in the year 2000 at the young age of 16.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">After years of dedication and hard work, WWE came calling. He was signed to the developmental brand of NXT in 2014. Owens is regarded as one of the cornerstones of modern NXT that converted the once redundant brand into a global force to reckon with.</p>
<img class="size-full wp-image-326902 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200729093656/960-71.jpg" alt="kevin owens" width="960" height="620" />
<p style="text-align: center">His run in NXT reached its zenith after he betrayed his long time friend Sami Zayn in pursuit of the NXT Championship. Owens became the Champion after an iconic rivalry with his fellow Canadian that kickstarted a heel run that took Owens to the stratosphere.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">In fact, his main roster debut came even while he was still the NXT Champion. He answered the US Open challenge of the legendary John Cena and went on to defeat him for the United States Championship, something that shocked everyone and instantly made Owens a bonafide star.</p>


[caption id="attachment_451610" align="alignnone" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-451610 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-485075770.jpg" alt="Kevin Owens at SummerSlam" width="1920" height="1280" /> NEW YORK, NY - AUGUST 23: Kevin Owens and Cesaro battle it out at the WWE SummerSlam 2015 at Barclays Center of Brooklyn on August 23, 2015 in New York City. (Photo by JP Yim/Getty Images)[/caption]
<p style="text-align: center">Owens would lose his NXT Championship after a great feud with Fin Balor, completely transitioning to the main roster. After struggling on the mid-card for some time post his Cena rivalry, Owens had his big moment in 2016 when he was handpicked by Triple H to win the WWE Universal Championship.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Kevin Owens had a career-defining rivalry with authority figure Shane McMahon. At one point in their rivalry, Kevin Owens was fired from WWE and even filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against McMahon. Finally, Owens defeated McMahon decisively and kicked him out of the WWE, establishing himself as a top babyface.</p>
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-616440" src="https://www.staging.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/120420211618233756Kevin Owens best-ms-gjwphktkvq.jpg" alt="" />
<p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-weight: 400">After defeating Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 36, ?The Prizefighter? set his eyes on WWE Universal Championship. However, Roman Reigns was still a force to reckoned with. The two heavyweights brawled during the ?Thunderdome Era?.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-weight: 400">Eventually, the two of them met at the Extreme Rules PPV in 2021 where Reigns was the eventual winner. After that defeat, Owens? WWE contract was at its end and the WWE Universe speculated that the former WWE Champion would jump ship to AEW.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-weight: 400">However, Owens surprised everyone when he re-signed his WWE contract. Since his re-signing Owens has been a different force in the company. The 36-year-old superstar put his eyes on the WWE Championship. However, always found himself at the losing end.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-weight: 400">Currently, Owens is in a tag team with his former opponent, Seth Rollins. The duo fights on the red brand and claims that they will soon become the Raw Tag Team Champions.</span></p>

Owens is widely regarded as one of the best talents of the modern era with his fan following almost assuming a cult status. Coming from a humble background, Owens had to cut his teeth on the independent circuit before even dreaming of the bright lights of WWE. However, such was his dedication, that despite not knowing a word of English as a child due to his native language being French, he watched episodes of Raw to learn the language. Contrast that with today when he is considered one of the best talkers in all of sports entertainment.

Along with his best friend Sami Zayn, he dominated the rosters of Ring of Honor and Pro Wrestling Guerilla. He began his career in the year 2000 at the young age of 16. After years of dedication and hard work, WWE came calling. He was signed to the developmental brand of NXT in 2014. Owens is regarded as one of the cornerstones of modern NXT that converted the once redundant brand into a global force to reckon with. His run in NXT reached its zenith after he betrayed his long time friend Sami Zayn in pursuit of the NXT Championship. Owens became the Champion after an iconic rivalry with his fellow Canadian that kickstarted a heel run that took Owens to the stratosphere. In fact, his main roster debut came even while he was still the NXT Champion. He answered the US Open challenge of the legendary John Cena and went on to defeat him for the United States Championship, something that shocked everyone and instantly made Owens a bonafide star.
