Check out the highlights from Tuesday's edition of WWE Smackdown in Glasgow.

Shane McMahon will wrestle for Smackdown at WWE Survivor Series with Baron Corbin ruled out due to injury.

Blue-brand commissioner McMahon will compete in his first match since losing to The Undertaker inside Hell in a Cell at WrestleMania 32 in April, when Smackdown battles Raw on November 20.

Corbin was due to fight alongside AJ Styles, Dean Ambrose, Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt in Toronto but sustained a knock to his leg while clashing with Kalisto in Glasgow on Tuesday night.

McMahon had earlier named James Ellsworth as Smackdown's mascot for their bout with Raw, whose team will comprise of Kevin Owens, Chris Jericho, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman.

But the fan favourite could not celebrate with a victory, Ellsworth planted with a Sister Abigail as he, Ambrose and Kane were defeated by Wyatt, Orton and reigning WWE World Champion, Styles.
