On Shinsuke Nakamura battling Kevin Owens for the right to join Team Smackdown:
A highly-coveted spot on Team SmackDown will be up for grabs in a battle between Shinsuke Nakamura and Kevin Owens. There is no love lost between the two Superstars, whose rivalry dates back to before their time in WWE. WWE’s Rockstar emerged victorious in a thrilling bout the last time he collided with KO on SmackDown LIVE.
Will Owens even the score and turn Team SmackDown into Team Kevin, or will Nakamura show that he is worthy of representing Team Blue in a showdown with Raw at Survivor Series?
On AJ Styles taking on Samir Singh:
Last Tuesday on SmackDown LIVE, Sunil Singh attempted to defend the honor of WWE Champion Jinder Mahal by clashing with AJ Styles. Despite The Modern Day Maharaja’s best efforts to interfere in the bout, Sunil was bulldozed by The Phenomenal One after Mahal was ejected from ringside.
However, where Sunil failed, his brother is promising to succeed. After Sunil’s loss, Samir stepped up and declared that he would battle in Mahal’s honor this week against Styles. Will The Phenomenal One subject Samir to the same punishment his brother faced, or can Samir make the WWE Champion proud?
