17 Things You Probably Missed From WWE SmackDown (June 18)
Subliminal messaging or an outright warning from the boss?
Shane McMahon continues to receive quite the push on WWE TV and pretty much everyone is p*ssed about it.
Sure, the thought of Shane-O becoming WWE Champ at the expense of Kofi Kingston is a 2019 nightmare to rival anything It Chapter Two can throw up, but there'd be a bright side to all this camera time if it helped Drew McIntyre or Elias.

We've also got 16 other gems you may have missed from the show, including Big E's stunning selflessness, Dolph Ziggler's brain getting all tangled up when it should've been the ropes, Matt Hardy's nod back in time and more.
