Here are some of our predictions for this week’s episode of Smackdown.
7) John Morrison Will Defeat Big E (After Some Help From The Miz)
WWE has confirmed a match between Big E and John Morrison for Smackdown this week. This will be Morrison’s first match since returning to WWE.
I definitely think that Morrison is going to win. It would be silly to have him lose his first match back. To protect Big E, I think that The Miz will distract him, leading to Morrison winning.
This will generate some heel heat on Morrison & The Miz. It also protects Big E from losing the match clean. This seems like a smart way to book it.
6) ‘The Fiend’ Will Attack Kane
WWE has confirmed that Kane will be appearing on this week’s episode of Smackdown.
The only reason that I think Kane could be appearing is for something to do with the feud between Daniel Bryan and ‘The Fiend’.
My guess is that Kane will get attacked by ‘The Fiend’ on the episode this week. This will piss off Daniel Bryan because he is buddies with Kane. It seems like an easy way to keep the storyline build going as we get closer to their WWE Universal Title match at the Royal Rumble.
5) Braun Strowman vs Shinsuke Nakamura Will Get Officially Confirmed For The Royal Rumble
It seems pretty clear that we are going to see Braun Strowman vs Shinsuke Nakamura at the Royal Rumble PPV. This has been teased on Smackdown for the past several weeks.
On this week’s episode, my guess is that WWE will make that match official for the Rumble.
