  Home News WWE Nixes SmackDown Angle Due to Injured Star
  In the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer reported that WWE was slated to shoot an angle on last week's SmackDown to set up WWE Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura defending his title against Braun Strowman at the TLC PPV.
  It got nixed because Strowman is injured as Meltzer has heard Strowman is suffering from back spasms, however the official word from WWE is that he has a sore hip.
  The belief is that if Strowman can work on Sunday then WWE could shoot an angle on Friday Night SmackDown.
