A whirlwind couple of days for Buddy Murphy, who, after some forceable prompting from Roman Reigns last week, revealed that Rowan was the culprit in the recent attacks against The Big Dog, and The Best Kept Secret made his SmackDown in-ring debut tonight against Reigns.

Prior to the match, Rowan & “The New” Daniel Bryan arrived to vehemently deny that Rowan -- and Bryan by association -- had anything to do with the attacks on Reigns and would prove their innocence tonight.

Still fuming after Roman’s treatment of him last week, Murphy staggered The Big Dog several times, even hitting a brainbuster that looked like it would seal the victory. The Big Dog persevered with a clutch kickout, however, and soon drilled The Best Kept Secret with a Superman Punch off the steel steps and a thunderous Spear that sent Murphy end-over-end for an emphatic victory.

When confronted by Daniel Bryan & Rowan, Buddy Murphy changes his story.
