 The year-end recap of WWE SmackDown kicked off with Pat McAfee and Michael Cole. Becky Lynch showed up to see us off with the first highlight reel of the night, the SummerSlam match between RAW tag champs AJ Styles and Omos vs. RK-Bro.

 

#10. RK-Bro defeat AJ Styles and Omos at SummerSlam (August 21, 2021)

Randy Orton and Riddle picked up the RAW tag team titles for the first time at SummerSlam and it was quite the match.

#9. Logan Paul gets knocked out at WrestleMania (April 11, 2021)

 Youtube celebrity Logan Paul showed up for WrestleMania back in April alongside Sami Zayn during his match with Kevin Owens. Paul ended up in the ring, post-match, and turned on Zayn before Owens hit him with the stunner to knock him out.

#8. Bobby Lashley beats Goldberg at SummerSlam (August 21, 2021)

 In the second clip on this list from SummerSlam this year, Goldberg and Bobby Lashley had quite the face-off in August. Lashley picked up the win after Goldberg hurt his knee in the match and was unable to stand up but The All Mighty attacked him with a chair after the match was called.

#7 Charlotte Flair picks up the RAW Women's Title at SummerSlam (August 21, 2021)

 Charlotte took on Nikki A.S.H. and Rhea Ripley in the RAW Women's title match at SummerSlam and walked away with the title after locking in a Figure-Four leglock on Nikki.

#6. Bad Bunny debuts at WrestleMania (April 10, 2021)

 Popular recording artist Bad Bunny showed up around WrestleMania to promote his song about Booker T and joined Damian Priest in a match against The Miz & Morrison. Bunny hit a big dive to the outside and picked up the win on the biggest show of them all.

#5. Edge vs. Seth Rollins inside Hell In a Cell at Crown Jewel (October 21, 2021)


 We got one of the biggest matches of the year between Seth Rollins and Edge at WWE Crown Jewel that led to the duo leaping off a ladder and through the table before Rollins used a chain to stomp The Rated-R Superstar but the latter still walked away with the win.


 

#4. Bianca Belair picks up the SmackDown Women's title at WrestleMania (April 10th, 2021)

 Bianca Belair picked up the SmackDown Women's title at WrestleMania this year, only to lose it within seconds to Becky Lynch later in the year. Sasha Banks and Belair had a brutal match before the title changed hands on Night One at WrestleMania 37.

#3. Becky Lynch defeats Bianca Belair for the SmackDown Women's title at SummerSlam (August 21, 2021)

 Becky Lynch made her surprise return at SummerSlam and took the SmackDown Women's title from Bianca Belair in one of the shortest title matches in WWE history. Lynch was not happy about being placed in number three and asked Cole if he was responsible for making this list.

 

#2. Big E cashes in the Money in the Bank contract on Bobby Lashley on WWE RAW (September 13, 2021)


 Big E had been teasing his Money in the Bank contract cash-in for weeks before finally doing it on WWE RAW in September, where he defeated Bobby Lashley to become the world champion for the first time!

#1. Brock Lesnar returns at SummerSlam (August 21, 2021)

 Brock Lesnar made his surprise return at SummerSlam and it led to a brand new feud with Roman Reigns and The Beast Incarnate that will hopefully conclude with a Universal title match at the Day 1 pay-per-view.

It was a good year for WWE with the return of legends like Lesnar, Goldberg, and Edge while stars like Big E and Bianca Belair reached new heights in their careers.

The highlight of the year was Roman and Brock's feud that led to the firing of Paul Heyman while a close second in my opinion was the feud between Edge and Rollins.

We at Sportskeeda wish you guys a very happy new year as we head into Day 1 tomorrow. See you guys in 2022!
