Wrestling Rumors Official Smackdown Live Preview – Tuesday, October 17, 2017

Tonight’s episode of Smackdown Live emanates from the Key Arena in Seattle, Washington. Here’s what we can expect for the show:

Sami Zayn to kick off SmackDown LIVE

Sami Zayn explains why he helped Kevin Owens at WWE Hell in a Cell: SmackDown LIVE, Oct. 10, 2017

Without a doubt, the biggest storyline on “Smackdown Live,” as of late, has been Sami Zayn’s decision to help Kevin Owens defeat Shane McMahon at the recent “Hell in a Cell” pay-per-view. My guess is that tonight will continue to build toward a future match with either AJ Styles or Shane-O-Mac, and with “Survivor Series” still being about a month of away, there is no rush in developing this feud.

WWE Champion Jinder Mahal to make Survivor Series announcement

WWE Champion Jinder Mahal has a message for his critics: Exclusive, Oct. 8, 2017

There have been rumors that WWE Champion Jinder Mahal is planning to challenge The Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar, in a “champion vs. champion” match at “Survivor Series.”

If the “modern day Maharaja” indeed makes that announcement during tonight’s show, it would undoubtedly set up a few weeks of talk and build towards Mahal’s ultimate demise.

 
 
 

Bobby Roode and Dolph Ziggler meet in WWE Hell in a Cell rematch tonight on SmackDown LIVE

Bobby Roode calls out Dolph Ziggler: SmackDown LIVE, Oct. 10, 2017

I love both Dolph Ziggler and Bobby Roode, and if WWE wants to give me these two one more time, I will not turn it down. However, I hope that this is the final match between these two, and they can each move on to new things. Personally, I feel that Ziggler needs the win here, in order to propel him to the next thing, however, I have a suspicion that it won’t happen.

Which is fine; in fact, it would be GLORIOUS!!

United States Champion Baron Corbin to be in action

Baron Corbin vs. AJ Styles - United States Championship Match: SmackDown LIVE, Oct. 10, 2017

I have been very impressed with Baron Corbin for a long time, and I’m glad he’s finally getting the opportunity to be one of the flag-bearers for the company. My guess is that he will be facing Tye Dillinger tonight, and I hope that the “Perfect 10” gets the victory. It would be great to see the two of them go one-on-one at “Survivor Series.”

Breezango break open their next case in “Pulp Fashion”

The Ascension just want to be friends with Breezango on "The Fashion Files": WWE Hell In A Cell 2017

Breeznago is amazing. “The Fashion Files” are hilarious. “Pulp Fashion” is going to be incredible. That is all.
