Obsession.
The 958th edition of WWE SmackDown LIVE was the final SmackDown LIVE of 2017 and it came to you, live, from the Allstate Arena in Chicago, IL. As 2017 draws to a close, what do the Superstars of SmackDown LIVE have in store for 2018? Will we find out who will be the next challenger for AJ Styles’ WWE Championship? What is the status of the United States Championship after new champion Dolph Ziggler placed the title belt in the middle of the ring last week and walked off without it? Will Shane McMahon continue his crusade to rid WWE of Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn? With the Royal Rumble quickly approaching, will anyone else announce their entry into the Men’s Royal Rumble Match or the Women’s Royal Rumble Match on this week’s SmackDown LIVE?
