Sami Zayn announced on WWE SmackDown that he has been medically cleared.

Zayn called out Solo Sikoa, who was flanked by the MFTs (JC Mateo, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, & Talla Tonga), and ready for a fight. Solo said he didn’t want to put him down since he’s not cleared, but Zayn revealed that he is cleared after being sidelined for the last month.

Zayn also said he wasn’t alone, leading to Shinsuke Nakamura, Rey Fenix, and the Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin) joining him to fight off the MFTs.

After the brawl in the ring, Solo spoke with Nick Aldis backstage, wanting to face Zayn. Aldis said they didn’t have time tonight, but booked a five-on-five Survivor Series elimination match for the November 28th episode of WWE SmackDown.

Here is the lineup for SmackDown in two weeks:
