It was the first episode of Friday Night SmackDown in 2020 last night, and the show kicked off the year in style with the likes of Sheamus, The Usos, and John Morrison making their WWE returns.
Elias and Roman Reigns announced their places in the men's Royal Rumble match, whilst the feud between Lacey Evans and Sasha Banks advanced.
Daniel Bryan and The Fiend also continued to build towards their showdown at The Royal Rumble, while The Usos' return helped Reigns to even the numbers in his feud with King Corbin and Dolph Ziggler.

It was a stacked two hours of wrestling again this week, but it was also a week that contained several botches and mistakes.
#3 The cameraman forgets his position
The main event on this week's show saw Baron Corbin and Dolph Ziggler team up against Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns, but the match was never going to be a straight forward one since The Fiend made his presence known so that his feud with Bryan could continue to move forward.
The Fiend interfered in the match, and while he and Bryan were fighting on the outside of the ring, a cameraman was looking to get a good picture of the two men brawling, but he accidentally stepped in front of the cameraman who was filming the action.
After stepping in front of the screen, the cameraman noticed that he was in the way and tried to move quickly but tripped over and out of shot. It was an unusual thing to happen in a WWE main event, but the fact that there was a brawl on the outside could have meant that the cameraman was unaware that the feed had reverted to the hard cam, which he was blocking.
#2 There were several promo issues last night
Whilst in-ring ability is one of the most important traits of being a WWE Superstar, the ability to cut promos is also important, so it came as a shock that several Superstars tripped over their lines last night on SmackDown.
The SmackDown roster celebrated the New Year with last night's show, and it's important to point out that the next few months are the most stressful on the WWE calendar, with the buildup to WrestleMania kicking off at The Royal Rumble.
It could be stress which effected many of SmackDown's most tenured stars, but promo trips were much more noticeable than usual in Memphis last night as Cathy Kelley and Daniel Bryan were two of the shock stars who tripped over whilst delivering their lines to the camera as part of last night's show.
Interestingly, there were not many promo moments last night on RAW, but Elias' song that led to him announcing his participation in the upcoming men's Royal Rumble match was one of the highlights.
#1 Dana Brooke's Senton looked painful
The women of WWE kicked off the action last night on SmackDown as Bayley and Sasha Banks teamed up to take on the teams of Lacey Evans and Dana Brooke, as well as Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross in a triple threat match.
Ahead of the match, Bayley and Sasha cut a promo before they were interrupted by Evans, who talked about how the duo couldn't keep her daughter's name out of their mouths, even though they hadn't mentioned Summer at that point, which led many fans to believe that Evans and Brooke came out too early.
Brooke and Evans were able to pick up the win, as the rivalry between The Lady and Banks continues to heat up, but the finish of the match looked as though The Boss came off much worse than she should have because she was too close to the ropes for the Senton.
Brooke dived onto Banks and landed back first on her ribs, rather than getting the full rotation of the move. After the match, Banks didn't move, which led to speculation that The Boss could have been injured by Brooke when she took the finish.
