Best and worst of SmackDown Live: 26 December, 2017

#2 Best: The glare

Are we in for another AJ Styles-Shane McMahon match?

AJ Styles and Shane McMahon faced one another at WrestleMania 33. Everyone expected the match to be a dud, considering Shane McMahon isn't a wrestler. To everyone's surprise, it was a very good match indeed. Perhaps the best of Shane's storied career.

Shane McMahon got involved in the main event match between AJ Styles and Kevin Owens. As one would expect, it was a great match. What caught our attention, however, is the stare Styles gave Shane McMahon, for costing him this big match.

By interfering during the match (on AJ Styles' side, mind you), Shane McMahon inadvertently allowed Kevin Owens to pin the WWE Champion. Let's hope this builds into a pretty intriguing angle.
