As WWE continues to try and turn around its ratings woes, a number of big matches have been confirmed for next week's episode of SmackDown on FOX. Before we get to those, though, the company has revealed that the "love story" between Mr. Money in the Bank Otis and Mandy Rose will continue to play out as we finally catch up with them again.
When it comes to those matches, though, there's a lot to look forward to; for starters, after his big win on last night's episode, Gran Metalik will challenge AJ Styles for the Intercontinental Championship. That's not a bout we've seen on the blue brand before, and that alone makes it exciting.
It's also been revealed that Naomi will finally get her shot at Lacey Evans after their confrontation on Miz TV, while Nikki Cross is set to get another chance to capture Bayley's SmackDown Women's title after the heel managed to defeat her at Extreme Rules. All in all, it's definitely shaping up to be a strong show.
