#3 Otis!

Otis may have gotten much more than he could have wished for this Christmas. After all, he’s been a very good boy on SmackDown!

The Heavy Machinery took on The Revival in the holiday's traditional Miracle on 34th Street Fight. The two teams were evenly matched until the heels threw the ham gifted to Otis by Mandy Rose before the match onto the floor. Otis threw The Revival around and took out a bag of Legos and emptied it onto the ring. He then slammed Scott Dawson on the Legos as the entire WWE Universe felt his pain.

Otis and Tucker then picked up the victory with the Compactor and gave the WWE Universe something to smile about on Christmas.

However, the real story here seems to be that of Otis and Mandy Rose. Rose had gifted Otis a holiday ham and kissed his cheek before the match, while Otis apologized to God's Greatest Creation for ruining her ham after the match.

Rose hugged him but immediately regretted her decision as his sweat got all over her dress. The match seemed to be tailor-made for a fun team like Heavy Machinery, and they seem to be taking over The New Day’s role in some spots. Building an Otis and Rose storyline could provide the fans some comic relief, especially after the Lana and Bobby Lashley storyline on RAW.
