Preview & Predictions for WWE SmackDown:
On tap for tonight's episode, Ilja Dragunov will be once again defending the Men's United States Championship. This time, it won't be an open challenge, as he's directly already picked Tommaso Ciampa to be the next contender, intending to put a stop to all of Ciampa's shenanigans over recent weeks in trying to get a title opportunity. With Tama Tonga also as a lingering threat, I can't imagine Dragunov loses the title here. He's at least got that one match in the future, right?
Alexa Bliss will be in action against Lash Legend. I wholeheartedly think this has to go to Legend. She's not only the younger star who needs wins like this to establish herself and build some momentum for her new tag team with Nia Jax, but she also towers over Bliss. Realistically, this shouldn't be a fair fight at all, but it's professional wrestling, so there will naturally be a more even contest than it should be. Bliss is great (underrated in my opinion), but she needs to lose this.
Rhea Ripley has been called upon by Damian Priest to reform The Terror Twins so he can have some backup against Aleister Black and his wife, Zelina Vega. Nothing is on the line here, so either team could realistically win, but I think Zelina's going to be taking the pin from The Eradicator and that this might be the end of the feud while both move on to something else, unless they want to continue it until closer to the Royal Rumble. Maybe there's room for another hardcore match of some kind.
I'd anticipate more between Jade Cargill and B-Fab or Michin, or Chelsea Green for that matter, and there's no way this episode goes down without continuing the story between the MFTs and The Wyatt Sicks.
All that and more will go down tonight, so keep checking and refreshing for the most up-to-date results!
