Butch is looking for a friend.

Butch failed to gain the NXT North American Title on the December 22 episode of WWE SmackDown, losing to Dominik Mysterio.

In a backstage segment, Pretty Deadly (Elton Prince & Kit Wilson) made fun of him for losing and having no friends. Butch immediately attacked before the fight was broken up by officials.

WWE SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis said if Butch wants to face Pretty Deadly, he can find himself a tag team partner and face them on the January 5 episode of WWE SmackDown New Year's Revolution.

Butch was previously teaming with Ridge Holland, but Ridge abandoned the team and went back to NXT.

Here is the current lineup for the January 5 episode of WWE SmackDown:

WWE SmackDown (1/5)

  • WWE Women's Championship: IYO SKY (c) vs. Michin
  • Winner Faces Roman Reigns At WWE Royal Rumble: Randy Orton vs. AJ Styles vs. LA Knight
  • WWE US Title Contender Tournament Finals: Kevin Owens vs. Santos Escobar
  • Butch & TBA vs. Pretty Deadly (Elton Prince & Kit Wilson)
