We've learned to temper our expectations for SmackDown, but tonight's Extreme Rules go-home episode is set to feature at least one potentially awesome match.

After picking up an upset victory over AJ Styles upon making his blue brand debut, former NXT Superstar Matt Riddle will get a shot at the Intercontinental Championship in the main event. Riddle winning the title here is probably a long shot (Styles is expected to have a substantial run), but we have heard that Vince McMahon is high (no pun intended) on The King of Bros, so it's certainly possible.

Ahead of his non-title Swamp Fight with Universal Champion Braun Strowman, Bray Wyatt will host an all-new episode of the Firefly Fun House. Wyatt recently reverted back to his Eater of Worlds cult leader persona, so it'll be interesting to see if he maintains that here.

Finally, Alexa Bliss is scheduled to introduce a mystery guest for her Moment of Bliss talk show segment. We have no idea who is is, but WWE has promised that they'll "have the blue brand abuzz." It'll probably be Nikki Cross.

Do you guys plan on tuning into SmackDown later tonight? Let us know in the comments.
