WWE Announces Segment For WrestleMania SmackDown, Andre The Giant Battle Royal Note

WWE has announced a new segment for Friday's WrestleMania 38 go-home edition of SmackDown on FOX.

This week's WrestleMania RAW saw Happy Baron Corbin steal Drew McIntyre's sword, named Angela after his mother, following a Handicap Match against McIntyre and Madcap Moss, which McIntyre retreated from. WWE has now announced that Corbin and Moss will host a "Happy Talk" segment on SmackDown and their guest will be the sword.

WWE wrote, "On WrestleMania Raw, Happy Corbin's swift retreat from a Handicap Match paved the way for Drew McIntyre to get the win over him and Madcap Moss. Immediately after the bell, however, Corbin attacked the The Scottish Warrior from behind, hit End of Days and stole his beloved sword Angela! Now, just one day before battling The Scottish Warrior on WrestleMania Saturday, the brash Corbin will welcome his special guest Angela onto another episode of 'Happy Talk.' In a move that is sure to draw the ire of his adversary, will Happy Corbin even make it to The Grandest Stage of Them All? Don't miss a special WrestleMania SmackDown, this Friday at 8/7 C on FOX."

McIntyre vs. Corbin will take place during WrestleMania 38 Night One on Saturday.
