3 Hints WWE dropped on this week's SmackDown (29th November 2019)

There are some things that WWE basically tells you through the course of an episode, but there are some things that are revealed through specific things that WWE Superstars do or not do.

This week's SmackDown was actually a good show, with some particular aspects being mind-blowing. Every segment involving The Fiend Bray Wyatt on this week's episode was on a different level altogether, not so much in terms of wrestling action but in terms of storytelling and building a feud.

One thing is for sure, SmackDown is The Fiend's house and he is the face of the Blue brand and the very fact that Vince McMahon has given The Fiend his customized Universal Championship tells you everything there is to know.

Among other things, Roman Reigns' feud with Baron Corbin is old news now, while Lacey Evans seems to be the next in line for a SmackDown Women's Championship opportunity. Two more important things that happened on this week's episode were the return of Elias and Sheamus.

With all of the above things in mind, let's take a look at the three hints WWE dropped on this week's show:

#3 Braun Strowman has fallen down the pecking order

Due to some lackluster feuds over the past couple of months, Braun Strowman has seriously fallen down the pecking order, so much so that he didn't get any screentime this week.

The Monster Among Men is all set to face The Fiend Bray Wyatt for the Universal Championship at WWE Starrcade this Sunday in a Steel Cage Match but this match wasn't supposed to happen. The Miz was replaced by Strowman and that might have been done to protect the A-Lister, which tells you that Vince doesn't care if Strowman eats another pin.

Braun, upon his return to the Blue brand, should be booked in a manner that he deserves but will that be done? Only time will tell.
