Ricky Saints made his Smackdown debut last night, interrupting his friend and WWE champion Cody Rhodes in the opening segment of the night.

Saints welcomed Rhodes, and everyone, to Friday Night Saints and claimed to be the hottest Smackdown free agent.

With Rhodes cleared to compete again after a nasty black eye and going through concussion protocol, he challenged Saints to a one-on-one match for later in the show.

This was Saints’ main roster debut after spending just over a year in NXT. He is a former NXT and North American champion.
