Notably, CM Punk will be making his first TV appearance in almost a decade, while Randy Orton will be returning to TV after a long 556 days.## The night will also feature Tag-Team Turmoil for the Undisputed Tag-Title match, Chelsea Green & Piper Niven vs Tegan Nox & Natalya for the Women’s Tag-Titles, and Ivar vs Reed. . ## Make sure you don't miss out on the action - the show will be broadcasted live on the USA Network from 8:00 PM ET to 11:00 PM ET in the United States, and on BT Sport 1 at 1 AM on Tuesday mornings in the UK. ## #1. Seth Rollins To Confront CM Punk ## WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins and former WWE Champion CM Punk have been the talk of social media lately. At Survivor Series: WarGames in Chicago on November 25, 2023, Punk made his first appearance in WWE since 2014. ## This week on Raw, Punk will make his first TV appearance in almost a decade and it's been reported that he wants to talk to Rollins. There are multiple reports confirming that a feud between Punk and Rollins is in the works. The first hint of their feud came at Survivor Series when Rollins was seen flipping off Punk. ## #2. Randy To Find His Opponent ## On November 25, 2023, Randy Orton made his highly anticipated return to WWE during the WarGames match at Survivor Series. He teamed up with Cody Rhodes, Seth "Freakin" Rollins, Jey Uso, and Sami Zayn to defeat The Judgment Day (consisting of Damian Priest, Finn Bálor, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, and JD McDonagh) and Drew McIntyre. ## Orton's comeback was met with a thunderous ovation from the crowd, and he immediately made an impact in the match by executing his signature move, the RKO, on several members of Team SmackDown. There is no information currently available about Orton's future plans within WWE, but it is likely that his next move will be revealed during the show. ## #3. #DIY To Become No. 1 Contenders To The Judgment Day ## Six tag teams - The New Day, Alpha Academy, The Creed Brothers, #DIY, Imperium and Indus Sher - will compete in a Tag Team Turmoil Match to become the No. 1 Contenders for The Judgment Day. ## The rules of the match are simple: two teams will start in the ring, and the winning team will remain to face the next team until only one duo is left standing. The ultimate winner will be crowned the No. 1 Contender for The Judgment Day. #DIY is a newly-formed team, but they look strong enough to make an impact and potentially win the title. ## #4. Tegan Nox & Natalya Defeat Chelsea Green & Pipen Niven To Become The New Champions ## Chelsea Green & Piper Niven defend WWE Women's Tag Team Titles against Natalya & Tegan Nox. Natalya & Tegan Nox win the championship. ## #5. Rhea Ripley To Be On The Show ## Since winning the Women's World Championship, Rhea Ripley has been dominating her opponents. She recently secured a win against Zoey Stark at Survivor Series. However, she hasn't faced any strong opponents who could give her a tough challenge yet. Therefore, WWE needs to up the ante and find a worthy challenger for her title. Becky Lynch could be a potential opponent who fits the bill. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

WWE is gearing up for the upcoming edition of WWE Friday Night SmackDown on November 24, 2023, set to take place live at the Allstate Arena in Chicago, IL. ## On November 25, the go-home episode for Survivor Series will air. Currently, there are only two segments scheduled. The first segment will feature Kevin Owens as a special guest on The Grayson Waller Effect.## The second segment will be an Undisputed WWE Tag Team Title Match between The Judgment Day and The Street Profits. It's worth noting that this week, the show will air on FS1 instead of Fox, which is its usual network. ## #1. The Judgment Day To Defeat The Street Profits ## The Judgment Day will defend their Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship against The Street Profits. The Street Profits earned their title shot by defeating The Brawling Brutes and Pretty Deady in a Triple Threat Match. In my opinion, The Judgment Day is unlikely to lose its title against The Street Profits. Therefore, I predict that Judgment Day will win the match. #2. Kevin Owens To Attack Grayson Waller Austin Theory ## On tonight's show, The Grayson Waller Effect will feature a special guest appearance by Kevin Owens. It promises to be an intriguing segment as we rarely see Kevin Owens leave empty-handed. It's highly likely that Owens will put him in his place if Waller starts trash-talking about him. Another possibility is that Owens will confront another man, specifically Austin Theory. ## #3. Bianca Belair vs. Kairi Sane In A WarGames Advantage Match ## Last week on SmackDown, Damage CTRL issued a WarGames challenge for Charlotte Flair, Bianca Belair and Shotzi to find a partner to face Bayley, IYO SKY, Kairi Sane and Asuka in a WarGames Match before getting the better of their adversaries in a fierce brawl. ## #4. Solo Sikoa vs. LA Knight ## LA Knight made his intentions clear last week on SmackDown, when he interrupted Paul Heyman's boasting about Solo Sikoa's victory over John Cena. Knight declared that he would eliminate The Bloodline. In his first challenge against the group, he defeated Jimmy Uso with the BFT on the same night.## In his quest to destroy The Bloodline, LA Knight faced an attack from Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa following his match. Fortunately, The American Nightmare came to his aid and helped him overcome the attack. ## #5. Dragon Lee To Be In Action ## Dragon Lee has been active since his main roster debut. Last week, he continued his winning streak by defeating Axiom from NXT. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk
