Tonight\'s SmackDown serves as the first episode following Survivor Series: WarGames and the final stop before Saturday Night\'s Main Event on December 13.
The show is loaded with fallout from San Diego and one massive tournament final that will determine John Cena\'s retirement match opponent.
How to Watch: SmackDown airs at 8 PM ET on USA Network and Netflix.
The Last Time Is Now Tournament Finals: Gunther vs. LA Knight
After cutting through a field of 16 competitors, Gunther and LA Knight will collide with everything on the line. LA Knight defeated Jey Uso to punch his ticket to the finals while the Ring General beat Solo Sikoa in their respective semifinal matches on Raw.
The winner earns the right to face John Cena in what will be the 16-time world champion\'s final WWE match at Saturday Night\'s Main Event in Washington, D.C. Gunther is a former World Heavyweight Champion who presents a formidable adversary for John to overcome in his very last WWE match.
However, LA Knight has been on a remarkable run through this tournament, and a victory tonight would represent the biggest push of his WWE career.

Survivor Series Fallout: What\'s Next for Drew McIntyre?
With his team\'s win in the men\'s WarGames match over Cody Rhodes & Co., Drew McIntyre is likely going to call for a rematch. He has already made it clear that things between the two are not over until he says so.
The Scottish Warrior was technically suspended by SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis before Survivor Series, but Paul Heyman exploited a loophole to get McIntyre into the WarGames match.
At Survivor Series, The Vision (Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed), Logan Paul, Drew McIntyre, and Brock Lesnar defeated CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, The Usos, and Roman Reigns in a brutal WarGames bout. Now that WarGames is over, will Aldis reinstate McIntyre? And if so, what does that mean for WWE Champion Cody Rhodes?
The Wyatt Sicks vs. MFT: Faction War Brewing
After Solo Sikoa\'s sole survivor win on November 28, Uncle Howdy made his return and laid out Solo with Sister Abigail. Following his tournament loss to Gunther on Raw, expect the MFT leader to seek payback tonight.
Mystery Man Identity Still Unknown
A masked attacker hit CM Punk with a Stomp during WarGames, leading to Bron Breakker\'s pin. Many believe Austin Theory, who returned at the event, was the mystery man.
Randy Orton\'s Return?
The Viper has been absent since October 3 but is advertised for tonight. With the Royal Rumble less than two months away, could he be positioning himself for a title opportunity?
Women\'s Division
WWE Women\'s Champion Jade Cargill crashed Chelsea Green\'s US Title celebration last week. Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton are also advertised.
