WWE SmackDown highlighted the young title reign of Tiffany Stratton and gave the San Diego crowd a notable Rey Mysterio match.

Check out our top takeaways from WWE SmackDown on Jan. 17 in San Diego, where Tiffany Stratton defeated Bayley and Jacob Fatu delivered a promo.

Friday's episode of "WWE SmackDown" featured a strong, diverse slate of matches across a never-dull, three-hour show.

For the first time (which is incredible), Kevin Owens battled Rey Mysterio in a singles match. These two didn't go warp speed, but they made it count. Owens and Mysterio put on a show, with Owens picking up the win with a Powerbomb after he "inadvertently" knocked the official into the ropes and sent Mysterio off the top rope.

Stratton's first title defense comes against one of the most decorated women's champions in WWE history. Solo Sikoa is also set to return after losing to Roman Reigns in Tribal Combat on Jan. 6. Sikoa can no longer claim to be Tribal Chief but his New Bloodline is still terrorizing SmackDown.

Tensions are high as the superstars visit San Diego for WWE Smackdown today – Friday, Jan. 17 – from Pechanga Arena in San Diego, California. This episode is available to watch on multiple streaming services for free.
