WWE Clash of Champions opponents clash in monumental Six-Man Tag Team battle
This past Sunday’s WWE Network special has come and gone, but not without its share of controversy. While serving as Special Guest Referees for the battle between Randy Orton & Shinsuke Nakamura and Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn, Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon were unable to stay on the same page, and the friction led to a fast-count from The “Yes!” Man, resulting in KO & Zayn claiming victory and keeping their jobs. Plus, AJ Styles fought through the meddling of The Singh Brothers to retain his WWE Championship in a taxing bout against Jinder Mahal. The bad blood will continue to boil over tonight in a Six-Man Tag Team rematch from Tribute to The Troops when Styles, Orton & Nakamura join forces to clash with Mahal, Owens & Zayn. What will happen when these intense rivals collide inside the squared circle?

The New Day get ready for the holidays
The holidays are here, and The New Day is ready to celebrate! Kofi Kingston, Big E & Xavier Woods will be out to spread cheer among the WWE Universe on SmackDown LIVE, but what will the four-time tag team champions have in store to make sure your Christmas isn’t booty?

Dolph Ziggler celebrates his United States Title victory
Dolph Ziggler shocked the WWE Universe at WWE Clash of Champions when he walked out of a Triple Threat Match as the new United States Champion. The Showoff plans on rubbing that in the face of everyone who doubted him on SmackDown LIVE tonight, as he has a special celebration planned in honor of his big win.

Chad Gable & Shelton Benjamin try to knock off The Usos
The Usos survived a grueling Fatal 4-Way Match on Sunday to hang on to their SmackDown Tag Team Titles, but their week won’t be getting any easier, as they’ll be facing Chad Gable & Shelton Benjamin on SmackDown LIVE. The duos collided for Team Blue’s tag team titles over a month ago, and Gable & Benjamin won by count-out and feel that they’re still owed a rematch for the championship. This is their chance to prove they deserve it.

What's next for Natalya after "turning her back" on the WWE Universe at Clash of Champions?
Based off her harsh rant at WWE Clash of Champions, one thing is clear: Natalya is done caring about what the Women's division and the WWE Universe thinks of her.

Tune in tonight for all that and hopefully more of this:

I think they just need a third uppercard heel and Jinder is literally the only guy they can use.

I feel like when the storyline is "does this authority figure abuse their power" and the authority figure says "I was angry and frustrated and broke the rules because I hate those guys" on-air, that should probably end any narrative question about the angle.

Oh yes, costing the Survivor Series men's team that victory, which lead to them .... being fired, losing money, having to fire someone, losing a first round draft pick?

Oh yeah. It cost Smackdown absolutely nothing because it was a worthless match without stakes.

I'm having another of those "maybe I need to take a break for awhile" moments, because the promo being the same this-storyline-hasn't-changed-at-all promo and the main event being another random six-man is making me feel preemptively exhausted.

please do something cool tonight, smackdown

Something else I noticed. People might think I'm reading too much into it because it's subtle but he didn't do the cheap pop right at first. He went right to business. And before he started speaking I thought to myself "I bet he doesn't do the cheap pop". He did, but late, and even then it was significantly more subdued.
