3 things we could see on the final SmackDown episode for this year (27 December 2019)

#1 Roman Reigns attacks Baron Corbin and costs him the triple threat match

Will King Corbin prevail?

A triple threat match is scheduled for SmackDown this week and the winner of the match will punch his ticket for Royal Rumble, earning a shot at the Universal Championship. The Miz, Daniel Bryan, and Baron Corbin will all be taking on each other.

Even though it looked like either Bryan or The A-Lister could be the next challenger for The Fiend, Corbin interrupted them last week, claiming himself to be a deserving man to challenge the Universal Champion (reason: he pinned Roman Reigns twice). With two babyfaces and a heel, it should be one interesting triple threat match.

WWE is known to book heels against babyfaces, which is what makes Corbin unlikely to win this match, considering The Fiend is already a bad guy. Moreover, a rejuvenated Bryan deserves another title shot to avenge his Survivor Series loss.

Having dominated The Big Dog for the past few weeks, Corbin has the momentum and a clean loss will not be suitable for him. Reigns, who skipped SmackDown last week, could return and influence the triple threat match, furthering the rivalry in the process.
