WWE SmackDown is live tonight from the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tennessee! The Rock will be on hand to discuss the Bloodline’s upcoming tag match with Cody Rhodes and Seth “Freakin” Rollins. Let’s take a look at everything announced for tonight’s episode of WWE SmackDown:
WWE SmackDown card: March 15, 2024
Rey Mysterio returns
WWE’s official preview:
Just two weeks after making his earth-shattering return, Rey Mysterio comes back to the blue brand.
The Master of the 619 shocked Santos Escobar when he showed up during his Street Fight against Carlito, leaving LWO in high spirits.
Escobar gained some payback last week, however, as he disrespectfully beatdown Dragon Lee, an admirer of Mysterio, who has aided The LWO in the past.
With tensions already at an all-time high, what will Mysterio bring back to SmackDown?
Bayley vs. Dakota Kai
WWE’s official preview:
Bayley will get the chance to gain payback on Dakota Kai, who viciously betrayed two her two weeks ago.
Left with no allies, Bayley plans to go through every member of Damage CTRL before reaching WrestleMania.
With the rest of Damage CTRL backing up Kai, Bayley will need to be on her A-game if she plans on taking down her former friend.
Can Bayley get her road to WrestleMania on track, or will Kai derail The Role Model before she arrives?
Randy Orton vs. Grayson Waller
WWE’s official preview:
While having numerous confrontations with Logan Paul and his brass knuckles since the Elimination Chamber Match, Randy Orton has joined forces with another Superstar that has become an enemy of the United States Champion, Kevin Owens. Together, they have been brutalizing Paul’s associates Austin Theory and Grayson Waller with RKOs and Stunners flying in every direction.
The Viper will now take on Waller, and there is no telling what will happen on the turbulent Road to WrestleMania.
Dragon Lee vs. Santos Escobar
WWE’s official preview:
Dragon Lee and Santos Escobar will meet one-on-one in a matchup between two of the blue brand’s best Superstars.
Since reforming Legado del Fantasma alongside Angel, Berto and Elektra Lopez, Escobar has been nearly unstoppable, but a returning Rey Mysterio thwarted his beatdown of Carlito and the rest of The LWO.
New Catch Republic vs. Pretty Deadly (WrestleMania Tag Team Ladder Match Qualifier)
WWE’s official preview:
Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate will take on Elton Prince and Kit Wilson in a WrestleMania XL Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship Qualifying Match.
New Catch Republic and Pretty Deadly are looking to get one step closer to the WWE Tag Team Title Six-Pack Ladder Match at WrestleMania, but they’ll have to win this bout to do so.
Which team will come out on top?
The Rock is live on SmackDown
WWE’s official preview:
One week after receiving a “receipt” in the form of an unexpected slap from Cody Rhodes, The Rock is set to return to SmackDown tonight.
As The Road to WrestleMania comes barreling through Memphis, The Rock will be thinking about the slap heard around the world and the WrestleMania Saturday tag team main event pitting himself and Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns against The American Nightmare and World Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin” Rollins.
That high-stakes match will determine whether The Head of the Table’s title showdown against Rhodes on WrestleMania Sunday will be Bloodline-free or Bloodline rules.
What will The Great One do heading into The Showcase of the Immortals?
