Lawler said Styles will tell viewers who his next challenger will be. Stanford questioned why Styles gets to make this decision.<\/p>\n<p>-Lita interviewed Alexa Bliss backstage. She said she&#8217;s tired of hearing about the Four Horsewomen of NXT. She said they worked hard and she respects that, but she beat Becky Lynch in her debut. Lita asked about the possibility of Naomi being added to her title match against Lynch. Bliss said they could bring it on, but she signed a contract for a singles match.<\/p>\n<p>-Lawler brought up the Cleveland Indians sweeping in the MLB playoffs, yet claimed that the city was in mourning because The Miz dropped the Intercontinental Title. Stanford pointed out that Ziggler is also from Cleveland. Lawler said Miz is the favorite son.<\/p>\n<p>-The Usos was interviewed from backstage at Smackdown. They said their game plan hasn&#8217;t changed despite losing at No Mercy. Booker said he and his brother lost to the Road Warriors and The Steiners and other great tag teams, then asked how they slipped on a banana peel against Heath Slater and Rhyno. They said that&#8217;s what happened and it happened twice. They said it won&#8217;t happen a third time.<\/p><div id=\"prowr-520882667\" class=\"prowr-content-4 prowr-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: prowrestling_incontent_2 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"prowrestling_incontent_2\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\", slotId: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>-Jimmy Uso vs. Chad Gable was announced for Smackdown.<\/p>\n<p>-The hosts discussed the return of Luke Harper and the Smackdown main event.
