WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: A TEASE FOR CLASH OF CHAMPIONS?, THE YEP MOVEMENT, WELCOME BACK COLIN, THE NIGHT THE COMMENTARY TABLE WAS A PATH TO THE RING, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2017-12-12 21:57:00

We are back and The Yep Movement of Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens make their way to the ring.

Kevin says the Yep Movement has arrived.  Sami says this is surreal and he asks Kevin if he can feel the energy.  It is like the entire WWE Universe decided to stand by with them against WWE Management.  They stand united for change.  Kevin responds with a series of YEPs.

Sami says management took things one step too far last week and we see footage from last week's main event on Smackdown.

Kevin says you think Stephanie McMahon is ruthless and Mr. McMahon is the most brutal promoter, but after nine months, Shane is the worst McMahon.  Shane locked him to the ropes and then Shane made himself the guest referee.  Then Shane said that if they lose on Sunday, they will be fired by the WWE.  Shane is nothing but a mad man on a rage bender.  Shane is trying to humiliate them and make them lose their jobs because Shane could not defend his family.

We are here to show that WWE is more than Shane McMahon and his vendetta.  Kevin says that he hopes the ring is reinforced and it is time to Occupy Smackdown.

Daniel Bryan comes out and he does not look happy, but that frown is turned upside down and he Yeses his way to the ring.

Kevin introduces the inspiration for the Yep Movement.  Sami says they thought hundreds or thousands would come to the ring but they have the one man who occupies Smackdown, Daniel Bryan.

Daniel asks them what are they doing.

Sami and Kevin says they are showing respect to Daniel and the Yes Movement with the Yep Movement.  They have been disgraced and treated unfairly just like Daniel.

Daniel says they are nothing like him.  Daniel says this proves it.  The Yes Movement was not about him, it was about the people.  It was about what the WWE Universe wanted and deserved.

Sami says it is just like that but it is about what they want and what they deserve.  Kevin asks Daniel if he is drinking Shane's Kool-Aid.  Kevin says everyone knows why Shane made himself the referee.  It is to screw them.  Sami says they fought on the independent scene to get to this point and Shane is taking it away from them.

Daniel says that he has an agreement with Shane and they have each other's back.  Daniel says that he will make sure the match on Sunday is fair.  If you lose, there will be no excuses.  Daniel says he trusts that Shane will have his back.  Daniel says there will be a second guest referee in the match.  It will be Daniel Bryan.

We go to commercial.

We are back and the New Day are on commentary and they have flapjacks.

Aiden English is in the ring and he is going to perform the Rusev Day anthem because today and every day is Rusev Day.  On the eighth day of Rusev, his partner gave to him eight Aiden songs, seven boards a breakin, six matchka kicks, four of the lads, three Unhinder Jinders, two Rusev Day shirts, and a massive win over the New Day.

Jimmy says it isn't even Christmas, but you wouldn't be getting any gifts.  Jey says you are on the Naughty List.  Jey asks Jimmy what kind of presents would Santa bring.  New singing lessons, a toupe, or a new tag partner, or a new tan.  Jey says it will be about Day One Ish at Clash of Champions.

Before the match can start, Shelton Benjamin and Chad Gable come out with mics.  Gable is tired of the days because days are for the weak.  That is perfect for all of you.  Shelton says the only day that matters is Sunday when they win the titles.  Chad says Sunday is training day and they will train everyone like dogs for the new tag team champions.
