Key Highlights
- All in all, a productive night of booking at the very least, even if "SNME" appears as though it will not feature any titles on the line thanks to Dominik Mysterio's Survivor Series win. As usual, the WINC staff won't be able to hit quite everything in this column — we didn't have much to say about Ilja Dragunov vs.
- Carmelo Hayes this week, which is perhaps an indictment in and of itself — but if you missed anything you can always catch up via our "SmackDown" results page.
- If you want to know what the WINC crew thought of Friday night's festivities, here are three things we hated and three things we loved about the 12/5/25 episode of "WWE SmackDown!"AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementRead more: WWE SmackDown Stars: Meet Their Wives & GirlfriendsHated: Rhodes-McIntyre feud ongoingUndisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes attacks Drew McIntyre in his car on "WWE SmackDown" - WWEI'm not usually one to be begging for a superstar shakeup, or WWE Draft, or whatever you want to call it, but I really think it's beyond time for one, but sadly, we're not likely to get one before WrestleMania at this point, I'd imagine.
- As much as I love Drew McIntyre, I am once again complaining that he's involved in a feud where it doesn't appear that he ever emerges victorious, and I'm getting really tired of that for him.
- It's worse for McIntyre when it involves a championship, and that's happening once again with him and Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes.
