Fraxiom vs DIY

This match, too, was fixed last week, when DIY poked fun at Fraxiom in the locker room, taking jibes at their tag title chances on the Blue Brand. Tommaso Ciampa, in particular, targeted Axiom, stealing his mask, and joked about it being a gift for Halloween. In response, Axiom challenged Ciampa to a match, which in all likelihood will see both tag teams in action tonight.WWE SmackDown Results, October 17: Ilja Dragunov Wins US Title, Cody Rhodes Brawls With Drew McIntyre and Other Exciting Highlights of WWE Friday Night SmackDown

One can also expect the heated rivalry between The Miz and Carmelo Hayes to reach another stage.
