RAW produced an action-packed episode before heading into this Sunday's TLC pay-per-view, and SmackDown will look to do the same. Having already announced some matches for TLC, the company could add more to the card this week on SmackDown.
The Revival punched their tickets to TLC last week, beating three other teams to become the number one contenders to The New Day's SmackDown Tag Team Championships. While things became serious between Lacey Evans and Sasha Banks, Alexa Bliss pinned Mandy Rose. As promised by Baron Corbin, he embarrassed Roman Reigns with dog food, following the latter's win over Dolph Ziggler. Furthermore, an unusual match was finalized on SmackDown last week, as Bray Wyatt (not The Fiend) will fight The Miz in a non-title match at TLC. It will be the first match for the Firefly Fun House host since coming back to WWE TV after WrestleMania 35.
Let's take a look at things WWE could be planning on the final SmackDown before TLC.
#3 Lacey Evans challenges Sasha Banks at TLC
Since Becky Lynch will take part in the Women's Tag Team Championship match at TLC, she will not defend the RAW Women's Title. With no proper build-up for the SmackDown Women's Championship, its feasible that the Blue Belt will not be defended as well on Sunday.
Lacey Evans has initiated a feud with Sasha Banks and Bayley. 'The Sassy Southern Belle' put her hands on Sasha Banks two weeks ago, and with Bayley's help 'The Boss' decimated Evans last week.
SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley is part of the rivalry, yet the major issue has been between Banks and Evans, as they not only assaulted each other, but also exchanged some harsh words. Evans could challenge Sasha Banks to a singles match at TLC, and the match could have the following stipulation. If 'The Sassy Southern Belle' walks out with a win at TLC, she would receive a championship opportunity against Bayley.
#2 Roman Reigns brings his own backup
The storyline between Roman Reigns and Baron Corbin has become intense and exciting, even though some fans have expressed their resentment on various social media platforms. However, it is a classic feud between the biggest babyface and one of the Blue Brand's most noteworthy heels. With his actions in recent weeks, Baron Corbin has been able to create nuclear heat, including the segment last week, which left many fans bewildered.
'The Big Dog' faced Dolph Ziggler in a singles match on SmackDown last week, earning a comprehensive win in the main event, but the post-match assault shocked a preponderance of fans. Not only was Reigns beaten and handcuffed at ringside, but he was also showered with dog food, humiliated for a second time after being mocked with a dog mascot a couple of weeks ago.
The numbers game has created a major hurdle for 'The Big Dog' and he might bring his own backup before heading into TLC. Ali and Shorty G, who are also babyfaces, could lend their helping hands to the former Universal Champion. Both men teamed up with Reigns not too long ago, facing the team of Dolph Ziggler, Robert Roode, and Baron Corbin.
#1 The Miz enters the Firefly Fun House
Bray Wyatt's mind games have been interesting, and he did it again last week, launching a personal attack on The Miz. Whether he is The Fiend or the host of Firefly Fun House, Bray Wyatt stays one step ahead of his opponents and never fails to impress with his clever tactics.
For the first time since returning with his new gimmick, Bray Wyatt targeted his opponent's family, as he showed a photo frame of The Miz's family in the Firefly Fun House last week. While The Miz looked concerned for his wife and kids, things became even more bizarre in the backstage area when he found the same family portrait, but 'The A-Lister' was now replaced by Bray Wyatt. Revealing himself for the first time outside the Firefly Fun House, Wyatt delivered a vicious Sister Abigail to The Miz, sending a strong message before TLC.
Things could get more serious in this rivalry, if Wyatt keeps showing The Miz's family members in the Firefly Fun House this week. Such antagonization could prompt The Miz to enter the house. Seth Rollins previously invaded the Firefly Fun House and burned it down. With that in mind, The Miz could find a way to enter, put his hands on the Universal Champion and hype the match before TLC. Given The Miz received a Sister Abigail last week, he could avenge it by delivering a Skull Crushing Finale inside the Firefly Fun House.
