RAW

After a new opening video package, Baron Corbin is shown greeting Stephanie McMahon as she steps out of a limo. He tries to sing Happy Birthday to her until Triple H steps out of the car. She questions his decision to put himself in a title match last week and his ability to lead. She tells him to find two tag team partners to battle The Shield tonight.

When we go live to the arena, The Shield heads to the ring through the crowd. Ambrose gets things started by talking about The Shield being the three best workhorses in WWE.

Reigns starts to talk and the crowd immediately boos him. He puts over himself and Rollins as the top champions on Raw. Rollins talks about Braun Strowman trying to take them out by aligning with Ziggler and McIntyre. They call out Corbin and he comes out with Strowman, Ziggler, and McIntyre.

McIntyre and Ziggler try to tell Ambrose he would be better off without The Shield. They actually make a few good points. Roman tells them to stop talking and start fighting, but Corbin tells them the fight won't happen right now. He says Drew and Dolph are already booked tonight, but he has other partners to rely on.

Bayley accompanies Finn Balor to the ring for his match against Jinder Mahal, who will have Alicia Fox in his corner.

SmackDown Live

SmackDown opens with a video recapping last week's match between Kevin Owens and AJ Styles.

AJ Styles makes his way to the ring. He says his New Year's resolutions are to carry the WWE title to WrestleMania and leave with it still around his waist.

Styles complains about Daniel Bryan allowing KO to accompany Zayn to the ring for their match, so he asks D-Bry to come out and explain himself. Bryan wastes no time heading to the ring. Before he can say anything, Shane McMahon joins them.

Shane starts by apologizing to AJ for costing him the match last week and Styles forgives him with a fist bump. Then Shane McMahon asks Bryan is he is turning the Yes Movement into the Yep Movement. He says he will be at ringside tonight to make sure KO doesn't interfere. Bryan says it Shane and Owens will be out there, he may as well join them.

The Usos (c) vs. Gable and Shelton for the Tag Team Titles

One of the Usos is telling the ref he was the legal man and the wrong brother was pinned while Gable and Benjamin celebrate. Another ref heads to the ring to talk with the first one.

The ref realizes his mistake and restarts the match.

The Usos RETAINS The Tag Team Titles!!

Riott Squad vs. Carmella and Natalya and Tamina

Riott Squad won

The entire Riott Squad will be in this year's Royal Rumble. Charlotte comes out on the stage to respond. She says actions have consequences and reintroduces them to Naomi and Becky Lynch.

They took out the Riott Squad and Becky Lynch was on fire though.

AJ Styles vs. Sami Zayn w/ KO at his corner! With Danie Bryan and Shane McMahon at ringside.

Styles looks pissed and yells at the ref while Shane shoves Owens. The ref boots Owens from ringside. Bryan grabs a mic and tells Shane he should leave, too. Zayn sticks AJ with the Helluva Kick during the confusion and gets the win.

Styles grabs a mic and starts yelling at everyone to stop acting like children. He says he may as well face Zayn and Owens in a handicap match, so Bryan books it for the Rumble with the title on the line.

The show ends with Zayn and Owens celebrating Bryan's decision while Shane looks at him disapprovingly. The Royal Rumble should be a very interesting.

Rating: 80/80
