This Sunday, the Royal Rumble signaled The Road to WrestleMania. Now, thanks to the snow storm earlier this week, SmackDown will be the first show in front of the WWE Universe since the epic pay-per-view. If that weren’t exciting enough, the “Hottest Show on Thursday Night” is going to be LIVE!
Whenever SmackDown goes live, there is no predicting what might happen. From holiday celebrations, to “Blast from the Past” to a good, old “Great American Bash” or coming all the way across the pond to the first-ever live SmackDown broadcast from the United Kingdom, the special edition of big blue carries an incredible history.
Tonight, the stakes could not be higher and there is no doubt that the blue brand will deliver once again with a whole new slew of action, surprises and extraordinary moments. With The Showcase of the Immortals on the horizon, look to see a number of Superstars make a statement and prove that they have what it takes to stand on The Grandest Stage of Them All right out of the gate. Whatever happens, one thing is for sure: You can’t afford to miss a second of tonight’s live action.
Speaking of must-see SmackDown moments, during a historic Raw broadcast on Monday, it was announced that Daniel Bryan will battle Kane in a horrific Casket Match, LIVE tonight at 8/7c on Syfy.
Fueled by his quick elimination in Sunday’s Royal Rumble Match and a desire to get to WrestleMania by ending his longstanding rivalry with the demonic Superstar who put him on the shelf for eight months, Bryan seems eager to take part in a match he’s never competed in.
Considering that the Casket Match is one of the matches on which Kane has made his mark — and that he carries with him the full strength of The Authority — it is very possible that The Beard’s WrestleMania hopes could end up “dying” a painful death tonight. On the other hand, if anyone can rise out of the ashes of Royal Rumble defeat to power through Kane, it is WWE’s “Yes!” Man. Don’t miss a second of this tumultuous showdown, tonight on Syfy.
After outlasting 29 other Superstars in Sunday’s epic Royal Rumble Match and having his arm raised in victory by The Rock, Roman Reigns returns to The Great One’s show a conquering hero tonight.
For a true warrior, though, it’s always about the next battle. In Roman Reigns’ case, the greatest challenge is most certainly yet to come. He will now set his sights on WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar and their inevitable collision at WrestleMania 31. What fallout could await Thursday night’s best show?
Lesnar made the bold statement during Raw’s special broadcast that he doesn’t respect his No. 1 contender. While it will be interesting to see how his powerful challenger will react, one has to wonder who will be the target of his rage? Will The Beast Incarnate or his outspoken advocate Paul Heyman have more to say on the subject? Would another bold Superstar dare to step in his path in an attempt to steal his WrestleMania momentum? Find out LIVE, tonight at 8/7c on Syfy.
During Monday’s special broadcast, one Superstar who demanded that his presence be known was Seth Rollins. This seems to be an ongoing quest for Mr. Money in the Bank in recent weeks. Despite constant accusations that he hides behind The Authority, Rollins’ efforts to be heard go far beyond knocking over Lesnar’s chair. Case in point, The “Future of WWE” put up an incredible fight in the WWE World Heavyweight Title Match at Royal Rumble. And we think he’s just getting started. Translation, Roman Reigns isn’t the only Superstar to watch out for tonight. Seth Rollins has a lot to prove.
This Monday, we also learned that John Cena will go head-to-head with Rusev at WWE’s newest pay-per-view: WWE Fast Lane. While the showdown between the 15-time World Champion and his yet to be pinned adversary was originally being considered for WrestleMania by The Authority, the confrontation between the two Superstars at Royal Rumble made it clear that this must be settled sooner or later.
While we don’t know if the Cenation leader will be in Hartford, Conn., tonight, The Hero of the Russian Federation and the “Ravishing Russian” Lana are sure to have quite a bit to say on the matter. More times than not, in situations like this, actions speak much louder than words.
Daniel and Kane have been in a program together for what feels like three LONG years. I really hope this ends tonight and Bryan can move on to something more entertaining this WrestleMania season. Also, should be fun seeing the first live crowd reactions post-Rumble.
Tonight we'll get a proper idea of just how "unpopular" Reigns is.
I have a feeling its a double edged sword, he's going to get ratings, but for all the wrong reasons, people tuning in to see another car wreck of a show.
Still I could be wrong. The true proof is in Reigns crowd reactions tonight, can't wait to see them.
Surely something is going to happen in this random casket match, i can't really see it being a normal casket match where one of them gets put in the casket cleanly... kind of expecting Sheamus or Orton to show up.
New York and stamford , conn - January 29, 2015 - wwe smack down will air live on syfy tonight at 8 pm et/pt and will feature Daniel Bryan vs kane in the legendary wwe casket match as well wwe superstars including roman reigns,Seth Rollins and dean ambose and wwe divas Natalya,Paige and alica fox.
There's a twist to the match; You have to take out Dean's (Ambrose) body first before placing your opponent in.
