This episode of SmackDown Live makes or breaks Crown Jewel
#1 An advertised face off
Ad
Will one of the two babyfaces finally snap and turn heel this week?
AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan would be a marquee match anywhere in the world. All that WWE needs to do is advertise this dream 'once in a lifetime' clash like a match between two athletes that respect one another. Instead, they've been making Pinocchio allusions at one another and having misunderstandings. Expect much of the same on this episode as well.

I can't say that I'm a particularly big fan of the approach that WWE has adopted. They want to show dissent between Styles and Bryan, two men that play by the rules. They want a clash of a lifetime and they want heat going into the battle.
So expect more miscues, miscommunication and misunderstandings on this week's show between the two men competing for the WWE Championship. Meh.
Are you guys excited about this week's go-home episode before Crown Jewel?
