The “altercation” at the performance center is addressed, with multiple cameras there to catch the action, thank god. Get Shayna Baszler on SmackDown more often, by the way.

It’s nice to see NXT trainees featured on Raw or SmackDown not dressed up in Halloween costumes and dancing behind someone. I wonder how Nikki Kross felt not being included in a featurette that totally ignored her Last Woman Standing match.

Charlotte has an emotion backstage promo where she announces Becky has officially crossed the line after her attack at the performance center.

No official words from Becky Lynch ahead of the Evolution match, which is very odd to me. That is, of course, there’s just no official word yet, and it’s being saved for the very final moments of SmackDown as the big go-home promo for Evolution.

Next in “Feuds I Wish Would End” news, Aiden English and Rusev will finally get their hands on each other in a technical match.

Not a very long technical match, of couse, as Rusev makes very quick work of Aiden English was The Accolade.

Remember when this feud was really, really cool a couple of weeks ago and now it’s totally done? Cross your fingers that WWE still has solid plans for Rusev after this. This man deserves way more than he gets.
