WWE's final pay-per-view of the year, Clash Of Champions 2017, takes place this Sunday evening (December 17th), and the SmackDown-branded show's lineup may have been completed last night.

With the bulk of the card already in place, SD brought a handful of new additions. General Manager Daniel Bryan has been placed into the Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn vs. Randy Orton & Shinsuke Nakamura tag bout as a second special guest referee, joining Shane McMahon, with the stipulation stating that the heels will be "fired" if they lose.

A couple of undercard bouts were also announced, with Breezango facing the rampaging Bludgeon Brothers, and Zack Ryder vs. Mojo Rawley set for the Kickoff Show.
