3 Things WWE could be planning on the SmackDown before Survivor Series (November 22, 2019)

#1 The Universal Championship match gets a new stipulation

The Fiend will be in action at Survivor Series, where he will take on 5-time WWE Champion Daniel Bryan. The Fiend made his intentions clear, abruptly attacking Daniel Bryan in a backstage segment a couple weeks ago. Bryan then challenged The Fiend to put the Universal Title on the line at Survivor Series and that challenge was accepted.

Although the main theme of this year's Survivor Series will be brand supremacy, both the WWE Championship and the Universal Championship will be defended at the show. WWE Champion Brock Lesnar will defend his title against Rey Mysterio, and a new No Holds Barred stipulation was added to the match, making it more exciting. The Universal Championship match could get a new stipulation as well, especially considering The Fiend's two previous bouts.

The Fiend is an intimidating character, and loves to maul his opponents, especially when a new stipulation is added to his match. He took multiple stomps and a Pedigree against Seth Rollins inside the steel cage at Hell in a Cell. The Fiend won the Universal Championship after getting seven stomps from Rollins in a Falls Count Anywhere match at Crown Jewel.

Having already added a new stipulation to the WWE Championship match, it would not be surprising if WWE adds a new stipulation to the Universal Title match as well.
