What’s next?
Tonight’s episode of SmackDown Live (December 5th, 2017) will go down at the Valley View Casino Center in San Diego, California.
The show builds up towards the upcoming SmackDown-brand exclusive PPV Clash Of Champions which airs on December 17th, 2017.
Author’s take
Firstly, the Charlotte Flair vs. Tamina Snuka matchup seems to be a step in the right direction, especially considering that the Flair/Natalya feud seems to have run its course now. Tamina possesses an unbridled spirit and gifted athleticism.
Ergo, Snuka may force Flair to dig deep and pull out an even impressive performance than she usually does.
Speaking of athleticism, Baron Corbin is slowly but surely transforming into one of the WWE’s must-see Superstars, and Bobby Roode is no slouch either.
As for The New Day and ‘Rusev Day’ (sic), there isn’t a person in the WWE Universe who could possibly hate these talented teams. Tonight’s episode of SmackDown Live seems great.
