Wrestling Rumors Official Smackdown Live Preview – Tuesday, May 23, 2017

 Tonight’s episode of Smackdown Live emanates from the Huntington Arena in Toledo, Ohio. Here’s what we can expect for tonight’s show:

WWE Champion Jinder Mahal to throw Punjabi Celebration

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past 48 hours, you are aware that Jinder Mahal shocked the world and become the new WWE Champion at “Backlash” this past Sunday. However, not only do I expect that his business with Randy Orton is not over, but there may be a Bulgarian competitor that is wanting to make his mark as well…

SmackDown LIVE Women clash in tag team battle following WWE Backlash melee

After the Welcoming Committee defeated Naomi, Charlotte and Becky Lynch at “Backlash,” the lines are continuing to be drawn in the Women’s Division on “Smackdown Live.” Not sure how this will play out, but I’m looking forward to it.

Shane McMahon to make Money in the Bank announcement

With rumors running rampant about “Money in the Bank,” Shane McMahon is scheduled to make an announcement about the event tonight. I would guess that it will involve who is participating, or if Rusev will get his WWE Championship match.

Who’s next to challenge The Usos?

After defeating Breezango at “Backlash,” The Usos need new challengers for their Tag Team Championships. It just so happens that a certain team is rumored to be making their return to WWE tonight; coincidence?

Will AJ Styles continue his pursuit of the United States Title?

After losing by count out to Kevin Owens at “Backlash,” I have to imagine that the feud between Owens and AJ Styles is not over yet. Not sure what the next step is, but I look forward to finding out!
