#2 To load up the first SmackDown of the year with returns
WWE's last show of the decade ended with a wedding segment that got many people talking. It ended with the return of Liv Morgan as Lana's former love interest in a very interesting segment. Rusev would emerge from a cake to end WWE's decade on a very high note indeed.
The company knew that it would need to kickstart the new decade and the new year with a packed show. And this is why they needed to load up this show with a surprise or two. Sheamus was certainly a big surprise but so was the big return of John Morrison.

Morrison made his comeback to the company as a friend of The Miz, sharing the locker room with him after what was seemingly a big heel turn. These two returns have made SmackDown very interesting indeed. I can't wait to see where both storylines are leading.
