• Rematch In The Main Event Of Tonight’s SmackDown Live, Another Match Set
A Tribute To The Troops 2017 main event rematch is going to take place on tonight’s episode of SmackDown Live when the team of WWE Champion AJ Styles, Randy Orton & Shinsuke Nakamura faces the team of Jinder Mahal, Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn.
Below is what WWE posted:
“This past Sunday’s WWE Network special has come and gone, but not without its share of controversy. While serving as Special Guest Referees for the battle between Randy Orton & Shinsuke Nakamura and Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn, Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon were unable to stay on the same page, and the friction led to a fast-count from The “Yes!” Man, resulting in KO & Zayn claiming victory and keeping their jobs.
Plus, AJ Styles fought through the meddling of The Singh Brothers to retain his WWE Championship in a taxing bout against Jinder Mahal.
The bad blood will continue to boil over tonight in a Six-Man Tag Team rematch from Tribute to The Troops when Styles, Orton & Nakamura join forces to clash with Mahal, Owens & Zayn. What will happen when these intense rivals collide inside the squared circle?”
Another match that’ll take place on tonight’s SmackDown Live is SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos vs. Shelton Benjamin & Chad Gable.

• Huge Spoiler On Possible Winner Of The First Ever Women’s Royal Rumble Match
With the announcement of the first ever Women’s Royal Rumble match at Royal Rumble 2018, it’s expected that former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey would be making his WWE in-ring debut in the match.
Not only is she expected to debut as a surprise entrant, but she’s also expected to win the match and then go on to face a Champion at WrestleMania 34.
We have noted before how WWE officials had plans for Ronda to either face Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women’s Championship or face Asuka (possibly for the Raw Women’s Championship if WWE puts the Title on her) at WrestleMania 34.
We’ll keep you updated regarding this.
