Ali was attacked by Shinsuke Nakamura and Sami Zayn
Ali has been one of the most improved stars on SmackDown Live over the past few months, but much like Andrade, he hasn't been given the push he deserves. Instead, he has been used as talent enhancement in recent weeks and this week he was seemingly fed to Shinsuke Nakamura and Sami Zayn.

The only way that this storyline can now work is if Ali asks for a match against Nakamura following the attack on next week's SmackDown Live and is then able to defeat him. This would then allow Ali to step into the title picture and challenge Nakamura at Hell in a Cell.
Cedric Alexander was attacked by AJ Styles a week before Clash of Champions and after he was able to pin the Champion on the go-home episode, he was handed a title shot. Hopefully, this is a sign of things to come for Ali, who has been looking at debuting a new character ever since his switch over from 205 Live, and now needs to pick up a few wins so that he can make a name for himself on the blue brand.
