The November 13 episode of Friday Night SmackDown will deal with the fallout from the Crown Jewel Premium Live Event. That’s exactly why WWE has put together a solid lineup to keep fans entertained from start to finish
John Cena Returns
John Cena is coming to SmackDown with more John Cena Classic business to handle. Cena has already appeared on Raw and NXT as he prepares for the inaugural tournament, and his next stop is the blue brand.
The John Cena Classic will take place at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex on December 14, and Cena will be on SmackDown to invite more Superstars to compete. That makes tonight another chance to learn who will be entering the tournament before WWE heads into December.
Tiffany Stratton Appearance as WWE Women’s Champion
Tiffany Stratton went into Crown Jewel as Chelsea Green’s friend. She left with Chelsea’s championship. Stratton betrayed Green at Crown Jewel before cashing in her Money in the Bank contract, successfully taking the WWE Women’s Championship from her.
It’s also the second straight year Stratton has successfully used Money in the Bank to become champion. Now she has to return to SmackDown and deal with everything that comes next. Stratton has the championship again, but she also has a former friend who knows exactly how and why she lost it. Chelsea’s response to the betrayal could be just as important as whatever the new champion has to say.
