WWE SmackDown Unveils Exciting Tag Team Showdown Featuring Randy Orton

Randy Orton is set to join forces with the popular superstar LA Knight in tonight’s WWE SmackDown, airing at 9 pm on December 8. This edition of SmackDown promises an exhilarating tag team match featuring Orton and Knight against Bloodline members Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa.

This particular SmackDown episode is dedicated to the Troops Special version, making it even more special. Adding to the excitement, CM Punk is slated to make his first appearance on the blue brand in over a decade.

The event also includes two crucial matches to determine the contenders for the United States Championship, with Santos Escobar facing Dragon Lee in the first bout. However, Dragon Lee’s WWE journey doesn’t conclude on SmackDown, as he is also scheduled to participate in a second match at Saturday’s NXT Deadline premium live event. This time, he will be challenging Dirty Dominik Mysterio for the NXT North American Championship, following a rescheduling caused by the withdrawal of Mysterio’s former opponent, Wes Lee, due to a year-long sprain.

In another thrilling matchup during the second SmackDown event, Bobby Lashley is set to face Karrion Kross, who has been absent from WWE television for over four months. Despite Kross making appearances in-house and in a few dark matches before live audiences, he has not been seen on WWE television since early August. Notably, Kross was embroiled in a feud with AJ Styles at the time of his departure, and rumors are circulating about Styles potentially making a return soon.
