WWE SmackDown World Cup Begins, Tag Title Match, And More Set For 11/11 SmackDown
The November 11 episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown will feature a potentially historic Tag Team Championship match, Shinsuke Nakamura in action, and the beginning of the first-ever SmackDown World Cup.
Shinsuke Nakamura will be in action against Santos Escobar. Several weeks ago, Nakamura teamed with Hit Row to defeat Legado del Fantasma. Now, next week, Santos Escobar looks to exact some serious revenge.
Also, next week we’ll see the start of the SmackDown World Cup. This year, FOX will be broadcasting the FIFA World Cup during the holiday season. This is not the first World Cup in WWE as Shane McMahon won the World Cup Tournament in 2018, using the victory to declare himself the “Best in the World.” Thus far, no competitors in the tournament were named.
Rounding out the card, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods of The New Day will be challenging for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship. They will face whoever wins between The Brawling Brutes and The Usos at WWE Crown Jewel. If The Usos managed to win both matches, they will punch their ticket as the longest-reigning WWE Tag Team Champions in history, surpassing The New Day.
You can check out the full card below:
