The New Day issued an open challenge to the world, any team could’ve taken them up and challenged for the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champions. Among my predictions for this was a combination of Sami Zayn’s group – which includes WWE Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro.
Turns out that was correct. Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro were in fact led out by Sami Zayn to take them up on the challenge. The tag titles will be on the line against this fantastic team in what seems like tonight’s main event, and a potential great one.
You can see my full recap of the segment below:
New Day out now for their open challenge! Crowd very into them for their introduction of the challenge. E talks up all the food he’s eaten for Thanksgiving, but then mentions Black Friday as a day near and dear to their heart -they debuted on Black Friday – a day where your wildest treasure hunt fantasies can come true. Which is why the two of them have opened the doors for business. Tonight they have an open challenge! But the question is… they don’t even have to say it for the crowd to light up with “Who? Who? Who?”
Shinsuke Nakamura, Cesaro and Sami Zayn come out! Sami demands that they shut their mouths. Chastises them glorifying a holiday like Thanksgiving which celebrates gluttony, imperialistic issues and worst of all, they have the gall to promote Black Friday deals? Sami speaks of people being so selfish as to step over their own mothers to put extra money in their pockets, shame on every single one of you who continue to perpetuate and partake in this bogus holiday! It is high time that the tag team championships were held by men smart enough to see through the nonsense and that is why Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura are here to answer and become the new champs tonight!
SmackDown continues and I will be here to keep giving you the play-by-play as it happens!
