WWE News: SmackDown Live Event Results From Chicago, Illinois (12/26/18)
Results from last night’s WWE SmackDown Live Event in Chicago!
Following a nice, week long break away from the road, the WWE Superstars were back at it last night as the SmackDown Live roster was at the Allstate Arena in Chicago for a Live Event.
Among all the action last night for fans in attendance was a Triple Threat Match for the SmackDown Women’s Championship, new United States Champion Rusev defending against Shinsuke Nakamura, plus a Triple Threat Steel Cage Match featuring WWE Champion Daniel Bryan. Unfortunately though, those who were expecting to see Bryan versus AJ Styles were a bit disappointed, as ‘The Phenomenal One’ did not appear due to an illness. Below are the results:
- The Miz hosts MizTV with Mustafa Ali that leads to a match
- The Miz vs. Mustafa Ali ended in a No Contest after interference by Daniel Bryan
- Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson & Shelton Benjamin defeated Aiden English & The Colons
- SmackDown Tag Title Triple Threat: The Bar retained over The New Day & The Usos
- R-Truth & Carmella defeated Andrade ‘Cien’ Almas & Zelina Vega
- Rey Mysterio defeated Randy Orton
- United States Title: Rusev retained over Shinsuke Nakamura
- WWE Title Steel Cage Triple Threat: Daniel Bryan retained over The Miz & Mustafa Ali
- Lana & Naomi defeated Mandy Rose & Sonya Deville
- Jeff Hardy defeated Samoa Joe
- SmackDown Women’s Title Triple Threat: Asuka retained over Becky Lynch & Charlotte Flair

Former WWE Star Reveals How Company Tests Wrestlers for an “Attitude Problem”
A former WWE star took to social media to explain, in brief, how WWE evaluates its talent to determine whether they have an “attitude problem.” The post offered a glimpse into the company’s behind-the-scenes vetting process, suggesting that behavior and professionalism are actively monitored during a wrestler’s time with the promotion.
While the explanation was limited, the revelation underscores WWE’s focus on maintaining locker-room culture and managing talent dynamics. Fans and industry observers may read the post as further evidence that character and conduct behind the curtain can be as consequential as in-ring performance.

WWE Backlash Match Sparks “Clone War” Debate in Wrestling Community
Wrestling fans and insiders are abuzz after a match at WWE Backlash was accused of “copycatting” a formula previously used by an independent wrestler, a situation some are calling a new “clone war” in the industry. The controversy highlights growing concerns about creative overlap between major promotions and the indie scene.
The debate raises questions about originality and recognition, with observers wondering whether mainstream companies should acknowledge or adapt indie ideas more transparently. As the story spreads, fans and performers alike are watching to see how promotions handle influence, credit, and creative borrowing moving forward.
