Motor City Machine Guns set to appear on the Grayson Waller Effect

The newly crowned WWE Tag Team Champions MCMG which consists of Alexy Shelley and Chris Sabin are set to appear on a special edition of the ‘Grayson Waller Effect. The show is hosted by the team of Grayson Waller and Austin Theory.

MCMG has won the tag title in just their third match since their debut last month. The duo was invited by Waller and Theory on the last week’s episode.

Jey Uso invites Sami Zayn to SmackDown

The upcoming episode will be an interesting spectacle to watch following Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline picking up the win against Roman Reigns and The Usos at Crown Jewel 2024. One of the most highlighted segments from the fight was when Sami Zayn accidentally helluva-kicked Roman Reigns.

On this week’s episode of Raw, Zayn appeared in a segment with Jey and Jimmy Uso where Jey invited Zayn to the Blue brand as he wished to hash the beef between them. Jey also defended Zayn’s past actions in front of Jimmy.

It would be an intriguing segment to watch if Zayn makes an appearance on the Blue brand, the OG Bloodline’s reaction to the loss at the Saudi PLE would also be an interesting thing to watch.

What’s Next for Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes?

During the 11/04 episode of Monday Night Raw, a commercial for the November 8 episode of WWE SmackDown aired titled, “What’s next for Cody Rhodes?”

The commercial confirmed the appearance of Undisputed WWE Champion,  Cody Rhodes on this week’s episode. He is set to address his future as the champion in the Blue brand following his victory over Gunther in the inaugural Crown Jewel Title.

Roman Reigns set to appear

During the 11/04 episode of Monday Night Raw, the commercial for the 11/08 episode also contained Roman Reigns alongside Rhodes. Reigns is advertised to address the loss at Crown Jewel PLE against Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline.

‘How will Roman Reigns handle the aftermath of WWE Crown Jewel?’ as per this advertised commercial Reigns will address the loss and the path forward for the OG Bloodline. Reigns might also appear in a segment with Sami Zayn as he was invited by Jey Uso to clear the air regarding the mishap at the PLE.

It would be a crucial moment for the OG Bloodline this week, if they want to end the dominance of the rogue Bloodline faction they need to join forces with Sami ‘Uso’. Let us see what the WWE has in store for fans on this week’s episode of the Blue brand.
