This week’s episode of Smackdown Live takes place in Jacksonville, Florida. The show will continue the build towards the Royal Rumble PPV.
WWE has announced a triple threat match for the episode.
The match will be Charlotte Flair vs Becky Lynch vs Carmella. The winner faces Asuka at the Royal Rumble for the Smackdown Women’s Championship. Here is what WWE posted on their website about the match:
Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch
and Carmella all staked their claims as to why they would be most deserving to face off against SmackDown Women’s Champion Asuka at Royal Rumble last week. All three Superstars will now get their chance as they’ll square off in a Triple Threat Match this Tuesday night on SmackDown LIVE and the winner will move on to face Asuka for the title in Phoenix, Arizona on Jan. 27.Charlotte and Becky both feel that they should be SmackDown Women’s Champion at this present moment and only are not because of Ronda Rousey’s interference in their match against Asuka at WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs. Carmella, who reigned as SmackDown Women’s Champion for a staggering 130 days in 2018, has multiple victories over Flair, Lynch
and Asuka, and believes that puts her right in line for another title opportunity.All of this has been taken under consideration by the McMahon family, and now the three top challengers will collide this Tuesday night on the blue brand to prove who is most ready for Asuka next. Who will prevail? Find out this Tuesday night on SmackDown LIVE at 8/7 C on USA Network.
