WWE SmackDown before Royal Rumble Preview: Seth Rollins takes final shot at Roman Reigns, 2-time champion in huge showdown (28th January, 2022)

#4 Naomi finally gets her match against Sonya Deville on WWE SmackDown

Naomi has been involved in one of the longest-running feuds on WWE SmackDown. She earned her rematch against Charlotte Flair last week, but Sonya Deville once again interfered by donning the referee’s role.

The WWE official compromised Naomi’s shot at victory once again. It led to Adam Pearce finally booking a match between the two superstars.

WWE has no plans for these former AEW wrestlers? Here's why!

After months of injustice, Naomi finally has a chance to silence Deville once and for all. This would also mark the latter’s in-ring return. However, it is uncertain if she will compete in the match as she could always bring someone else to take her position in the bout.

In either case, we hope to see their feud come to a legitimate end tonight.

#3 Big E and Kofi Kingston reunite for tag team match on WWE SmackDown

Last week on WWE SmackDown, Kofi Kingston brought New Day member and former world champion Big E to watch his back during his match against Madcap Moss.

Kingston picked up a victory, following which E subjected Happy Corbin to a Big Ending. Tonight, we will see Kofi Kingston and Big E reunite in action for a tag team match against Corbin and Moss.

All four superstars can use a solid bout to build their momentum ahead of Royal Rumble. We are likely to see two-thirds of The New Day pick up a victory, and it would be exciting to see them work together once again.

It would be an advantage if they could stop Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss from reciting “jokes” on the show.
