Smackdown is seeing a huge downfall in terms of ratings for the past couple of weeks. With the absence of John Cena, the roster is lacking depth and the rivalry between Dean Ambrose and AJ Styles was stretched to TLC.
So, next week's show is supposed to give a boost to the blue brand's viewership. Also, the presence of Edge and Undertaker will provide the team some sort of momentum before heading into Survivor Series.
Both, Edge and Undertaker is the synonymous names for Smackdown Live, over the years. While John Cena, Randy Orton, Triple H were marquee players on Raw, Edge, Undertaker, Rey Mysterio, Jeff Hardy, Batista etc. were the torch-bearers for Smackdown Live.
Edge will definitely make a one-off appearance on Smackdown Live since he was forced to retire due to the neck injury. But, the Undertaker is supposed to continue his feud with the Wyatt family upon return.
