WWE SmackDown goes down tonight from the site of tomorrow’s Money in the Bank event: the O2 Arena in London, England! It is sure to be a big episode, as two titles are on the line, Logan Paul will appear, and Roman Reigns will have something to say on the eve of Bloodline Civil War. Let’s take a look at everything announced for tonight’s episode of WWE SmackDown:
Asuka (c) vs. Charlotte Flair for the WWE Women’s Championship
WWE’s official preview:
Whether it’s Charlotte Flair avoiding Asuka’s mystical mist or The Empress of Tomorrow launching a sneak attack on The Opportunity, the dangerous renewed rivalry between the Superstars is truly intriguing.
Now, Asuka will put the WWE Women’s Title on the line against arguably the greatest Women’s Champion of all time. In the highly anticipated contest, Bianca Belair has been banned from ringside.
Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens (c) vs. Pretty Deadly for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship
WWE’s official preview:
London’s calling for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions, and so are the tastiest snacks in all of WWE.
Pretty Deadly snatched a victory in the No. 1 Contenders’ Tag Team Gauntlet Match by ending the impressive run of The Brawling Brutes and earning themselves an Undisputed WWE Tag Team Title Match. Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens weren’t exactly fans of Elton Prince & Kit Wilson’s antics, but the blue brand newcomers took off before any fighting could ensue.
The showdown is set for this Friday on SmackDown, as the champions look to spoil Pretty Deadly’s homecoming on the eve of WWE Money in the Bank.
So are the titles “coming home” to England, or will Zayn & Owens be flying back in championship style following Money in the Bank weekend in London?
The Grayson Waller Effect with special guest Logan Paul
WWE’s official preview:
Grayson Waller has been making quite the splash since coming to SmackDown with “The Grayson Waller Effect,” with special guests like AJ Styles and Charlotte Flair. His most exciting guest could be yet to come, though, as Waller welcomes Logan Paul to the show one day before The Social Media Megastar competes in the life-changing Money in the Bank Ladder Match!
Roman Reigns returns to SmackDown
WWE’s official preview:
Jimmy and Jey Uso officially separated themselves from The Bloodline when they took out Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa in a series of Superkicks heard ’round the world on the June 16 episode of SmackDown. Then, in Reigns’ absence on the blue brand last week, The Usos expounded on why they shattered the dominant faction before reemerging after the main event to deliver another double Superkick to their younger brother, Sikoa.
Now, with the lines clearly drawn and a showdown pitting Reigns & Solo against Jimmy & Jey at WWE Money in the Bank, the Civil War continues on SmackDown with the return of The Head of the Table. What will happen when Reigns sets The Island of Relevancy on an explosive collision course with his estranged cousins just one day before The Bloodline battle at Money in the Bank?
