Here are several of our WWE Smackdown 1000 predictions. These are things that we think will happen on the show. This includes segments, returns and more!
WWE Smackdown 1000 Predictions
9) The Return Of The Fist
1000 episodes is a big milestone and I think WWE is going to go the extra mile for this episode. I am predicting that WWE is going to be bringing back the classic fist set design from so many years ago.
This is one of the most popular set designs in WWE history. I think many fans would love to see it back for one night. If you don’t know what I am talking about, here is a screenshot:
SmackDown 1000 will take place October 16 this year.

8) An Old Announce Team
I think that we are also going to see WWE bring back some old announcers for the show. My early guess is that Michael Cole will be the main guy on commentary. He spent so many years as the voice of the blue brand and they will probably bring him back for one night.
I think we also could see WWE bring back Tazz. Tazz was partners with Cole for several years, so it would make sense. I also could see Jerry Lawler come back since he and Cole were a team for a few years as well. There is also a chance that WWE brings back John “Bradshaw” Layfield for commentary. He spent plenty of years on Smackdown both as a commentator and wrestler.
Regardless, I think we could see some old names on commentary for the episode.
7) Teddy Long Announces A Tag Team Match (Playa)
Teddy Long is being advertised to appear on the 1000th episode of Smackdown. He spent several years as the Smackdown General Manager so this makes a ton of sense.
My guess is that Teddy is going to book a tag team match, playa! This will be a fun call-back to his days as General Manager. Fans of today still sometimes add playa, when WWE announces a tag team match on shows.
This will be a small but fun callback on the episode.
