WWE SmackDown Live Preview: October 9th 2018

Excitement awaits in the world cup qualifier!
Excitement awaits in the world cup qualifier!

SmackDown Live will see the fallout of WWE Super Show-Down from Melbourne, Australia. To start off, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch had another impressive outing, with Becky Lynch opting to disqualify herself to retain the SmackDown Women's title.

The IIconics gained huge momentum when they defeated Asuka and Naomi (clean, no less) in their home country. This could have serious implications for the Women's division going forward.

As for AJ Styles and Samoa Joe, their rivalry seemed to finally come to an end after an all-out war. After narrowly escaping defeat, Styles managed to tap Samoa Joe out to retain the WWE Championship.

What's next on the horizon for Styles? Well, that happens to be Daniel Bryan, who defeated The Miz in a whopping 2 minutes and 25 seconds to seal his WWE title shot at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia next month.

Things in SmackDown are heating up and we're on the 999th episode of the show tonight. With SmackDown 1000 just one week away, things are getting more exciting than ever. Here's what to look forward to on SmackDown Live tonight!


Will Lana give her side of the 'Milwaukee' incident?

Last week on SmackDown Live, Aiden English revealed to the world what he was referring to about the "one night in Milwaukee". It turned out to be a recording of him in the locker room practicing his singing when Lana came in and told him that she wanted him.

Rusevw as naturally left in shock and chased Aiden English. Lana insists that there's another side to the story and it's going to be really interesting to hear what she has to say. Did Aiden English only show a part of the footage to try to cause a rift between husband and wife?

Jeff Hardy takes on Samoa Joe in a World Cup qualifier

Jeff Hardy and Samoa Joe are both coming off of devastating losses. Jeff Hardy's first-ever Hell In A Cell outing didn't end as expected, while Samoa Joe failed his attempt to capture the WWE Championship.

However, they look for a chance to seal their place in Crown Jewel in the World Cup Qualifier. Both of them will look to join Kurt Angle and John Cena. Who's going to prevail in this exhilarating match-up?

Becky Lynch defends the title against Charlotte Flair with a big stipulation

Becky Lynch unfortunately resorted to disqualifying herself in order to retain the SmackDown Women's Championship. It seems like Paige wasn't having any of it, so she ordered a rematch for SmackDown Live. This time, however, if Becky Lynch gets disqualified, she loses the title.

This can go one of two ways. Either Becky Lynch decides to square up and beat Charlotte clean or she chooses a count out. If she does choose the latter (which is very likely), then expect a Last Woman Standing match at Evolution.

Miz TV with AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan

Is it going to be manipulative tactics from The Miz?
Is it going to be manipulative tactics from The Miz?

In a huge shock, Daniel Bryan took less than two and a half minutes to beat The Miz to secure a #1 contenders spot against AJ Styles for the WWE title at Crown Jewel.

The victorious champion and new contender are set to appear on Miz TV. The Miz isn't going to be in the best mood. It looks like The Miz TV might be a set up from him to try to manipulate his way into the title picture.

What will AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan have to say to each other? And how will The Miz interject?

The Big Show returns...to SmackDown?

The Big Show, who was a RAW-exclusive superstar until his injury last year will be making an appearance on SmackDown Live in a bizarre move to take on Randy Orton in another World Cup qualifier.

It's going to be exciting to see the two legends go at it and one would imagine that it will be the main event of the show. Tye Dillinger, who suffered broken fingers at the hands of The Viper last week is unlikely to sit back idly.

Will The World's Largest Athlete be victorious in his big return? Find out tonight on SmackDown Live!
