Feel The Glow (Ish)!
Not surprising considering his own happy union, SmackDown General Manager Daniel Bryan continues the trend started yesterday with the pairing of Rusev and Lana by putting married wrestlers (and Total Divas stars) Jimmy Uso and Naomi together as a team for the upcoming Mixed Match Challenge.
Will anything that happens when the Facebook Watch show debuts after SmackDown on Jan. 16 top the reunion of Sweet Beetz and Big Uce? And why didn’t Jimmy realize that hugging Bryan felt different than a squeeze from his main squeeze, Trinity?
We’ll have to tune in to find out and keep our eyes on the web for the remaining team announcements. Or head to tumblr for some slash fic.
Anyway... so far today, WWE already snuck in word that Apollo Crews will be replacing Enzo Amore on Team Raw - and we should get another announcement from red brand GM Kurt Angle later today.
Catch up on the reveals to date!
Lana and Rusev
Finn Balor and Sasha Banks
Charlotte Flair and Bobby Roode
