We've picked out the best moves from the top matches from this week's WWE SmackDown.

Shane McMahon and Shinsuke Nakamura will lead Team SmackDown at Survivor Series.

At the start of the evening, SmackDown Live Commissioner Shane McMahon arrived to address Kane's brutal attack on general manager Daniel Bryan on Monday Night Raw.

Shane 'O' Mac focused his attack on sister Stephanie, placing equal blame on her for Bryan's assault. And in response to her decision to name Raw GM Kurt Angle as Team Raw's captain at Survivor Series, Shane dropped the bombshell that he would lead Team SmackDown Live.

Here are 10 Superstars who got scared senseless in a spooky altercation.

Nakamura will be among those standing alongside Shane on November 19 by defeating Kevin Owens in the night's main event.

Randy Orton appeared, surplexing Zayn through a table. Nakamura took full advantage, flooring Owens with a devastating Kinshasa to join Orton and Shane on Team SmackDown Live.

Bobby Roode became the fourth member of Team Blue after beating Dolph Ziggler in their two out of three falls match.

The Showoff took the first fall, planting Roode with a superkick. The advantage would be short-lived though, with Roode scoring a quick roll-up after Ziggler's head smashed off the ring post.

And Team SmackDown Live became truly glorious when Roode countered an attempted pin-fall with a Glorious DDT, before promising that Team Raw would go down at Survivor Series, live on Sky Sports Box Office on November 19.

Rusev demanded a place on Team SmackDown

There was another brutal beat down when Sin Cara got his rematch against United States Champion Baron Corbin, but this time it was the champ on the receiving end.

Angered by repeated attempts to remove his mask, Sin Cara lunged at Corbin, unleashing an attack that The Lone Wolf attempted to escape on numerous occasions. The luchador would not relent, giving the official no choice but to disqualify him. The former NXT Tag Team Champion continued his beating until the champion finally escaped into the crowd.

AJ Styles followed up his comfortable win over Sunil Singh last week by dispatching his brother Samir with the Styles Clash in record time.

But The Phenomenal One's night would not end well, with WWE Champion Jinder Mahal attacking Styles, dropping him twice with the Khallas and sending a message to Brock Lesnar ahead of their champion v champion bout at Survivor Series.

Is Rusev worried about facing AJ Styles?

There's a rivalry developing between The New Day and Rusev and Aiden English. Earlier in the evening, Rusev had dumped the Halloween sweets offered by The New Day to the ground. Following that show of disrespect, Big E challenged The Bulgarian Brute to a match.

Rusev emerged victorious, though, catching Big E with a vicious superkick after the former WWE SmackDown Tag Team champion was distracted by an altercation outside the ring between English and Big E's team-mates Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston.
