5) The New Day vs The Bar Will Be Announced For TLC
Last week on Smackdown, The New Day defeated the Bar and the Big Show. This was a ‘Thanksgiving Feast Fight’.
Since they pinned the Champions last week, my guess is that we get another match between the Bar and the New Day at the upcoming TLC PPV. This will be for the Smackdown tag team Championships.
There is also a chance that the Usos could be added. This is based on them being the sole survivors in the tag team elimination match at Survivor Series.
4) Nikki Cross Will Be Shown Backstage With Sanity
It is still unclear if Nikki Cross has been called up to the WWE main roster or not. She appeared a few weeks ago in a match against Becky Lynch, but we haven’t seen anything since.
I am going to guess that SANITY is shown backstage this week. My guess (and hope) is that Nikki is with them.
Hopefully WWE can build up the group with backstage segments, which eventually leads to a push. The group has potential but we haven’t gotten to see much of them so far on the main roster.
3) Becky Lynch Will Be Stripped Of The Smackdown Women’s Championship
Becky Lynch is confirmed to be making an appearance on this week’s episode of Smackdown Live. My bold prediction is that WWE is going to strip her of the Smackdown Women’s Championship. The kayfabe explanation will be that Becky is hurt and can’t defend her title.
In reality, this will be a great way to generate even more fan support for Becky. Just imagine how pissed off that fans are going to be if she is stripped of the belt. I actually think this would be a way for Becky to get even a louder crowd reaction in the long run as fans will feel like she is being held down.
I would have Becky return in a few weeks from injury to a massive pop from the crowd.
