4) Shinsuke Nakamura Returned From Injury
One of the key things that we learned on Smackdown Live this week is that Shinsuke Nakamura is okay after his recent injury. For those who missed it, Nakamura was bitten by a police dog and had to miss some time over the past week or two.
Good to see him back and at 100%!

5) I Still Can’t Believe WWE Is Trying To Push Rusev As A Heel
I still don’t understand why WWE is trying to push Rusev as a heel. He gets one of the loudest reactions on Smackdown Live each week. WWE insists on trying to get fans to boo him.
People just love Rusev. Let’s embrace it.
Massive Rusev Day chants again
Why are you trying to keep him as a heel? #SDLive

6) A Random Smackdown Feud Happened Off The Air
Something that you didn’t get to see on Smackdown Live this week, a feud developed off the air. Samoa Joe attacked Tye Dillinger before the show started. A match between Joe and Dillinger was recently teased on WWE’s Youtube channel but it didn’t make the cut for Smackdown Live.
This was weird.
