The November 27th, 2018 edition of WWE SmackDown Live took place at the Target Center in Minneapolis, MN.

– Paige opens up the show in the ring, and she introduces SmackDown Women’s Champion Becky Lynch. Becky comes down to the ring and gets on the mic as the fans chant her name. Becky says she’s done sitting on the bench and she’s putting herself back in the game. She still wants to face Ronda Rousey, but first she needs to take care of business with Charlotte. She calls out Charlotte, and Charlotte comes down to the ring next.
Charlotte enters the ring as fans chant for Becky again. Becky says Charlotte almost gave Rousey the beating that she would have, except Becky wouldn’t have left Ronda able to walk. Becky says Charlotte is trying to be like her, but Charlotte says she was being herself, and says she’s the only one capable of beating Ronda. Charlotte says she’s genetically superior, and Becky says that Charlotte is just copying her dad Ric Flair. Flair says Nia Jax must have hit Becky harder than she thought, because Becky is delusional. They exchange words as Paige gets between them and tries to calm them down. Paige announces Charlotte vs. Becky in a TLC match at the TLC pay-per-view. Sonya Deville, Mandy Rose, Billie Kay, Peyton Royce, and Zelina Vega come out on the stage to interrupt.
Rose says this is a joke, and Paige should give the rest of them an opportunity too. Naomi interrupts next, and she brings Carmella, Asuka and Lana with her. This leads to Paige announcing a battle royal tonight, with all of the women of SmackDown except Charlotte and Becky. The winner will be added to their match at TLC, making it a triple threat.
