Title Match & Obstacle Course Challenge Set For Next Week’s Smackdown

Two things have been announced for Smackdown next week.

Tonight during Friday Night Smackdown we saw a few things go down that built to next week’s show on FOX. We saw a challenge laid down pertaining to an obstacle course and a title match was also announce.

First off, we got the debut episode of ‘Ding Dong Hello’ with host Bayley and her first guest was Bianca Belair. During the segment Bayley would state that all of Belairs past accomplishments do not matter and she even mocked her for calling herself the EST of WWE. Bayley would then go on to state that they need to figure out who the better athlete is between the two. That is when Bayley would then challenge Belair to an obstacle course challenge and Belair would accept.

Also on tonight’s show, we saw a match between Apollo Crews and the former Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn. At one point Zayn tried to win by pulling the tights of Crews but the ref saw it. Crews would then pin Zayn by pulling the title himself. Crews would then leave the ring and confront the Intercontinental Champion Be E who was at ringside and challenge him to another match for the IC Title. The challenge was accepted and the match is taking place next week.
