What will be the fallout of Lynch’s WrestleMania challenge to Rousey?
The Man punched her ticket to WrestleMania in shocking fashion on Sunday night, taking an injured Lana’s spot in the Women’s Royal Rumble Match and going on to win the bout.
Becky Lynch set the stage for The Show of Shows on Raw Monday night, officially challenging Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey. However, with 68 days left until WrestleMania, The Man may still have unfinished business on the blue brand, including Charlotte Flair, who is none too pleased that Lynch took what she believed was her Royal Rumble Match victory. Will anyone plan on making The Man’s Road to WrestleMania a rough one?
Shane McMahon & The Miz to throw The Best Tag Team Celebration in The World
They’ve had less than a handful of matches as a team, but Shane McMahon & The Miz pulled off a huge upset at WWE Royal Rumble, dethroning The Bar to become SmackDown Tag Team Champions.
Though they celebrated plenty with The A-Lister’s father, George, on Sunday, the party will continue tonight, when the champions throw The Best Tag Team Celebration in The World. What do Shane-O-Mac & The Miz have planned for this shindig?
Shinsuke Nakamura to battle R-Truth in a United States Championship Match tonight
After an attack by Nix Jax kept WWE Mixed Match Challenge winner R-Truth out of the Men's Royal Rumble on Sunday, the McMahon family has granted the rapping Superstar a United States Championship Match against Shinsuke Naramura tonight on SmackDown LIVE.
Daniel Bryan vows to change the climate of WWE forever
One of the more shocking developments at WWE Royal Rumble came during the WWE Championship Match, when the monstrous Rowan arrived to help “The New” Daniel Bryan retain his title against AJ Styles, assisted with a post-match attack, then raised the champion’s arm in victory.
The titan was with Bryan at Raw last night while he awaited Seth Rollins’ WrestleMania decision. Now, Bryan is vowing to change the climate of WWE tonight on SmackDown LIVE. What do the WWE Champion and his new ally have planned?
Who will step up to Asuka?
With The Man challenging for the red brand’s title, The Empress of Tomorrow will surely have no shortage of Superstars determined to try and knock her off her throne.
Will anyone step up to call out Asuka?
Can Rusev & Lana bounce back from a crushing Rumble?
WWE Royal Rumble turned out to be a very unhappy Rusev Day for The Bulgarian Brute and his wife, Lana.
During the Royal Rumble Kickoff, The Super Athlete inadvertently knocked his wife off the ring apron and to the arena floor, where she injured her ankle. While Rusev was focused on Lana, Shinsuke Nakamura clobbered him with a Kinshasa from behind to regain the United States Championship.
The bad tidings continued in the Women’s Royal Rumble Match, as Lana limped down the aisle, attempting to enter the match. Unfortunately, The Ravishing Russian’s injury would prevent her from even making it to the ring. That gave Becky Lynch the opening she needed to enter and win the 30-Superstar over-the-top-rope battle. A distraught Lana bared her soul in a WWE.com Exclusive later that night, leaving the WWE Universe to wonder when things will start looking up for the couple.
Will this evening’s SmackDown LIVE be a happier Rusev Day for The Bulgarian Brute & Lana? Find out on tonight at 8/7 C on USA Network.
