-Jinder Mahal and Alicia Fox
-Kevin Owens and Natalya

Powell’s POV: The MMC will have a 14-week run and there is actually going to be a ten-minute pre-show that will air opposite the end of Smackdown. The actual MMC broadcast will begin at 9CT/10ET right after Smackdown. The big changes this year is that it will be a 30-minute broadcast with two matches airing each week, plus it will be a round robin style tournament. Will I cover the show live after doing so last season? Nope, no way, but we will definitely pass along the results.

I’m stoked for this. I thought last year’s MMC was a lot of fun.
Team Little Big all the way!
Little Big, the Demon Huggers, or R-Money for the win!
Justice for Team Little Big!
