However, the most interesting announcement coming from the General Manager is the announcement of a SummerSlam rematch for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship.
The Championship match will see the New Day challenging the title holders Bludgeon Brothers and it’s going to be a No Disqualification bout.
What’s worth mentioning here is that Erick Rowan of the Bludgeon Brothers reportedly suffered an injury during his SummerSlam match and he didn’t appear on the SmackDown Live event the night after.
With the announced title bout, a lot of people are speculating that WWE could be planning a title change to give the former Wyatt Family member some time off.
Though whether these speculations turn out to be true will only be revealed this Tuesday night on SmackDown Live and we’ll have to tune in to the show to find out.
