Before his match with Samoa Joe can begin, Rey Mysterio is confronted by Zelina Vega, giving Andrade an opening to attack the masked man.

For the first time ever, Rey Mysterio and Samoa Joe were scheduled to face off in a major match on SmackDown LIVE … but Andrade & Zelina Vega had other plans.

Mysterio made his way to the ring first for this highly-anticipated contest, but before Samoa Joe could arrive, The Greatest Mask of All Time was confronted by Zelina Vega, who said she was positive that Mysterio got her barred from ringside last week for his 2-out-of-3 Falls Match with Andrade, and she asked Mysterio if he was really that distracted by her that he couldn’t focus on his opponent.

It quickly became clear that Vega’s arrival was just a means to distract Mysterio so Andrade could slide into the ring and blindside Mysterio. Andrade laid the boots into Mysterio and tried to insult the legend by hitting him with Eddie Guerrero’s signature Three Amigos Suplexes. Rey tried to battle back, even getting Andrade in position for the 619, but Andrade’s attack was just too sudden, and he left Rey laying with the Hammerlock DDT.
