3 Things WWE could be planning on the SmackDown after Survivor Series (November 29, 2019)

#2 Braun Strowman confronts Nakamura

At Survivor Series, Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura faced Roderick Strong and AJ Styles to prove the superior mid-card champion. While it was a decent bout, Roderick Strong pinned Nakamura to win the Triple Threat Match. With TLC less than three weeks away, Nakamura is likely to defend his title, especially considering he hasn't defended it at the last couple of pay-per-views.

Braun Strowman has had a productive run since swapping brands last month. Facing Tyson Fury at Crown Jewel, Strowman made a bold statement, and he also represented the Blue Brand at Survivor Series. Although 'The Monster Among Men' was eliminated by count out, his team still won the match.

Perhaps a glimpse of Strowman's next feud was given on SmackDown a few weeks ago when he had a face-off with Sami Zayn and Nakamura. Despite being part of the main roster for a couple of years and booked as a top star of the company, Strowman is yet to win his first singles title, although he came close when challenging Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship. Strowman has never had a legitimate feud for any of WWE's mid-card titles, but that might change on SmackDown this week. Following the intense confrontation a couple of weeks ago, Strowman just might confront the duo again, and could possibly attack the Intercontinental Champion.
