The Queen certainly knows how make a grand entrance, and she knows how to stir the pot even better.

Charlotte Flair returned to SmackDown last week with a message for Bayley and, perhaps more importantly, Bayley’s good friend Sasha Banks. Before the NXT Women’s Champion was done, she left The Boss contemplating her future and set a Champion vs. Champion Match against the SmackDown Women’s Champion.
Will The Queen seize the opportunity to assert her dominance? Or can Bayley & Sasha affirm their role model status?
AJ Styles rolls into SmackDown to face Shinsuke Nakamura in Intercontinental Championship Tournament
The announcement of AJ Styles in the Intercontinental Championship Tournament shook up the bracket, and Shinsuke Nakamura will have to deal with the fallout.
The Phenomenal One will face the former Intercontinental Champion in the First Round of the Intercontinental Championship Tournament. The title is currently being held in abeyance due to Sami Zayn being unable to compete. Now the in-ring poet Nakamura will look to defend his friend’s honor and bring the championship into The Artist Collective.

The winner of the first-round showdown will face Elias in the semifinals.
Will Styles become a regular fixture on the blue brand, or can Nakamura discourage The Phenomenal One’s journey onto SmackDown?
