LA Knight suffered a loss to Gunther in a massive showdown. It's been a long time since The Megastar has achieved any major feat or any championship reign. Given Knight's booking pattern, it seems WWE has given up on him.

They merely used Knight in the Last Time is Now tournament to make things interesting, since everyone already predicted Gunther would be the final opponent of John Cena.


#3. Gunther would beat John Cena in his final match

With the momentum Gunther has on his side ahead of Saturday Night's Main Event, it seems clear that The Ring General will win over John Cena in his final match.

Despite all the attempts, LA Knight failed to defeat the former World Heavyweight Champion, demonstrating his strong performance in the Stamford-based promotion. All signs indicate that WWE subtly confirmed Gunther will beat Cena and retire him from the squared circle.


#2. The Terror Twins' reunion will be a one-off

During this week's episode of SmackDown, Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest appeared in a video package where The Archer of Infamy confirmed the reunion of The Terror Twins. Priest and Ripley will officially face Aleister Black and Zelina Vega in the upcoming edition of the blue brand.

Although the reunion is taking place next week, it might not last too long. The video package clearly indicated that it's only a one-off reunion. After this match, The Eradicator will return to the women's division either as IYO SKY's tag partner or as a single star.

#1. WWE is saving Drew McIntyre vs. Cody Rhodes for a major stage

Drew McIntyre and Cody Rhodes were entangled in a heated brawl on SmackDown tonight. This suggests that the Stamford-based promotion is planning a Rhodes vs. McIntyre match after the WarGames match.

It seems that the company is either saving McIntyre vs. Rhodes for the Royal Rumble Premium Live Event. If not, then the Undisputed Title match might take place at the first edition of SmackDown next year.

This is similar to the CM Punk vs. Bron Breakker title match announced for the January 5 edition of Monday Night RAW.
