WWE SmackDown has an interesting show lined up for this week

#2 Sami Zayn reacts to disrespect on WWE SmackDown

Expand Tweet

WWE SmackDown superstar Sami Zayn felt disrespected on the show last week when his backstage segment was abruptly cut off on live television. In his frustration, he declared himself a veteran and locker-room leader. Zayn also compared himself to The Undertaker and criticized his treatment in WWE.

Will we see Zayn talk about it once again on WWE SmackDown tonight? He has been playing along with the conspiracy angle for a while, which could help build that narrative. The only thing is that the writers need to craft a good storyline based on these incidents and use Zayn to his potential rather than letting him slide into oblivion.

#1 What’s next for Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura on WWE SmackDown?

Expand Tweet

Shinsuke Nakamura is currently enjoying a relatively uneventful title reign on WWE SmackDown. The Intercontinental Champion is involved in a feud with Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss. Corbin defeated Nakamura in singles and tag team matches when the King of Strong Style teamed up with Rick Boogs.

Last week, both teams locked horns in a Halloween-themed spooky match. With Corbin’s recent wins on WWE SmackDown, he might soon get a shot at the Intercontinental Championship. The title desperately needs solid feuds, especially if Nakamura is expected to lock horns in a well-balanced match against United States Champion Damian Priest at Survivor Series 2021.
