Carmelo Hayes recently revealed that he received valuable advice from CM Punk.
During last night’s edition of WWE SmackDown, Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens had a fiery exchange of words during a promo segment as they almost brawled before WWE officials intervened to separate them.
Following that, Hayes came across Rhodes backstage as they had a staredown. Later that evening, Carmelo Hayes took to his social media and revealed CM Punk’s advice, about backstage fights on SmackDown.
Carmelo Hayes’ tongue-in-cheek tweet was a reference to CM Punk’s infamous real-life backstage scuffles during his AEW tenure which led to his departure from the promotion.
Carmelo Hayes is scheduled to face Cody Rhode on the upcoming edition of WWE SmackDown which was taped after this week’s show.
On the other hand, the Women’s United States Championship tournament will also continue next week with a triple threat quarterfinals matchup. A mystery competitor will face Piper Niven and Michin in a triple threat quarterfinals tournament match on next week’s WWE SmackDown. Jade Cargill was originally set for the match but she is seemingly written off after an injury angle last night as she was hit by a car backstage.
The announced lineup for the Friday, November 29 WWE SmackDown:
- Cody Rhodes vs. Carmelo Hayes
- Tournament Quarterfinals for the Women’s United States Championship:
Piper Niven vs. Michin vs. one more Superstar TBA
