Friday Night SmackDown, Nov. 15, 2019: Wyatt says “Yes!" to Bryan’s challenge for a Universal Title Match

With SmackDown’s Survivor Series team in flux, King Corbin, Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode mock Roman Reigns with their own “Big Dog” mascot.

After pinning Roman Reigns one week ago, King Corbin declared by royal decree that he would be the captain of Team SmackDown when they battle Team Raw and Team NXT at Survivor Series.

Then, as his subjects Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode prepared to try and overcome Mustafa Ali & Shorty G in order to take their place on the SmackDown Survivor Series Team, Corbin invited The Big Dog to witness the matchup by standing side-by-side with him during the action. Instead of Reigns, however, a man in a dog costume emerged to further ridicule the black-clad Superstar.

Mustafa Ali & Shorty G look to defend their Team SmackDown Survivor Series spots against Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode as King Corbin waits in the wings.

Following a challenge on social media, Mustafa Ali and Shorty G put their Survivor Series spots on the line against Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode.

During a fast-paced tag team bout, the real Roman Reigns emerged, and when King Corbin attempted to interfere on his subjects’ behalf, the former Universal Champion stopped him in his tracks with a double boot and a mega-Spear outside the ring. With Corbin out of the way, the coast was clear for Shorty G's German suplex into Mustafa Ali's earth-shattering 450 Splash to overcome Ziggler in the center of the ring.

Drew Gulak takes another crack at his PowerPoint presentation skills, but an unamused Monster Among Men lays waste to The B-Team as the former Cruiserweight Champion gets quickly out of dodge.

One week after Braun Strowman and Tyson Fury joined forces to unleash an onslaught on The B-Team, Drew Gulak entered the squared circle set to face Braun Strowman and flanked by Bo Dallas & Curtis Axel. Before the bell, Gulak held up the match in order to present a visual aid that depicted him as the savior of Team SmackDown at WWE’s Fall Classic, hoping to prove that he should replace Strowman in the Men’s Survivor Series Elimination Match.

However, when Gulak, Dallas and Axel launched three-on-one attack, The Monster Among Men took out The B-Team while Gulak scurried away. Here end-eth the lesson.

While The New Day battle The Revival in a SmackDown Tag Team Championship rematch, The Undisputed ERA emerge to send a message ahead of the Triple Threat Tag Team Match at Survivor Series.

After Kofi Kingston & Big E of The New Day overcame The Revival to capture the positive faction’s seventh Tag Team Titles, the two tandems engaged in a rematch for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship.

Before a clear winner could be decided, NXT’s deadly faction Undisputed ERA suddenly joined the party and attacked both tag teams to bring the action to a sudden end. Although Heavy Machinery, Lucha House Party, Apollo Crews and Heath Slater quickly came out to chase off Undisputed ERA, the issues between the brands are intensifying en route to Survivor Series.

Heavy Machinery bring the party and the pain as they quickly dispatch Kevin Tibbs & Kip Stevens.

After helping to defend the honor of SmackDown against Undisputed ERA, Otis & Tucker stuck around to lay waste to ­­­­­­Kevin Tibbs & Kip Stevens, thoroughly thrashing the local competitors and creating a party-like atmosphere while doing so. In short order, Otis & Tucker ended the beatdown with the Compactor.

After the NXT troops derailed the match between Nikki Cross and Bayley, Sasha Banks, Cross, Carmella & Dana Brooke challenge Rhea Ripley, Mia Yim, Tegan Nox & Dakota Kai to a Survivor Series preview in the ring.

After NXT had been running roughshod on SmackDown for weeks, Sasha Banks finally had enough and called out several of the NXT Superstars to face the SmackDown Superstars in an impromptu match.

In the final moments of the intense showdown that served as a prelude of what is to come at Survivor Series, Team SmackDown prevailed when Nikki Cross, the Superstar who began the evening being put to the test, scored the pin on Kai with the neckbreaker.

Still looking get the last word, the NXT competitors attacked their victorious opponent after the bell, but Mandy Rose, Sonya Deville and Tamina quickly returned to the ring to help Team SmackDown send their cross-brand adversaries packing.

After “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt attacked Daniel Bryan last week, the Universal Champion crashes The Beard’s appearance on “Miz TV,” and The Firefly Fun House friends spur Bryan into challenging Wyatt for his title.

One week after Universal Champion “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt attacked Daniel Bryan, The Miz welcomed his longtime rival to appear on “Miz TV,” questioning the former WWE Champion on his mental state following the onslaught. A fired-up Bryan shot back at The A-Lister with a full demonstration of his immense passion. Bryan acknowledged his own mental instability but expressed his belief that it somehow puts him on common ground with the equally unstable Wyatt.

The interview was soon interrupted by Wyatt and his Firefly Fun House friends, Abby The Witch, Huskus The Pig Boy, Mercy The Buzzard and Rambling Rabbit. As Wyatt pulled his new blue Universal Championship out of the toy box, Bryan participated in a “Yes and No” back and forth with Bray’s Fun House characters.

Nevertheless, The Beard was wise to what was happening and refused to give into his adversary’s head games. Instead he challenged Bray to a Universal Title Match at Survivor Series, to which the smiling Wyatt responded with a resounding “Yes!”
