Penta and Rey Fenix won the No. 1 Contenders Match against Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens by disqualification in Omaha. Chris Jericho and AJ Styles appeared together around the contest, adding a new partnership to SmackDown’s tag-team picture.
The distinction matters: the Lucha Brothers are the official winners, while Jericho and Styles were not competitors in the match. Penta and Fenix each gain a win; Sami and Kevin each take a loss. The interruption does not turn the bout into a three-team match.
Jericho and Styles later discussed their involvement backstage. With the Bloodline holding the SmackDown Tag Team Championship, the division now has another team seeking a place in the conversation. Omaha gave the contenders match a result while making the wider picture more complicated.
