SmackDown Live Preview: Matches And Opening Segment Announced

Daniel Bryan

We noted before how a New Day segment was announced for this week’s episode of SmackDown Live and now Paige has revealed another segment and a couple of new matches for the show.

The General Manager continued the tradition of booking matches via twitter, and she confirmed a mixed tag match and Daniel Bryan’s bout for the night via a video posted from her official account as seen below:

The first bout she announced is between the teams of Zelina Vega and Andrade ‘Cien’ Almas vs. Carmella and R Truth. Both these teams had been teasing this match on social media last week.

Shelton Benjamin Gets A Match On SmackDown

Also after Shelton Benjamin sent out some tweets asking for a match on SmackDown, the former Diva’s Champion announced that he will face Daniel Bryan at the upcoming episode.

Apart from this, Paige also announced that she will be opening the show tonight. However, the video ended there and she did not explain what the opening segment will be about.

Though considering the ending of last week’s episode of the Blue Branded Show, and the fact that this will be the go-home episode for the Super Show Down, it’s very likely that the opening segment will involve the WWE Champion AJ Styles and Samoa Joe.
