Preview & Predictions for WWE SmackDown:
On tap for tonight's episode, Ilja Dragunov will continue on with the United States Open Challenge. As per usual, we don't know who will be facing him for the Men's United States Championship (as that's the entire point, other than to just have banger matches every week). However, it can be assumed Tommaso Ciampa and Tama Tonga are two potential candidates, after Ciampa tried to answer the challenge last week, and Tonga was holding Dragunov's title. Of course, Axiom or Johnny Gargano could also come out instead, or someone else can be a surprise.
The Women's United States Championship is also up for grabs with Giulia defending against Chelsea Green, who wants to prove that she was a better champion. WWE has resorted to going heel vs. heel after clearly not knowing what to do with this title for the better part of 2025. You'd think they would just call people up from SmackDown or shuffle the roster, but they refuse to do that, for whatever reason. Giulia will retain.
Rey Fenix has challenged Talla Tonga last week. He's going to regret that. I expect Tonga to win and for this to turn into a big brawl featuring others like Shinsuke Nakamura coming out to fight with MFTs.
Nia Jax is also going up against Charlotte Flair after having lost to Alexa Bliss last week. Shot in the dark, I think Jax wins this time due to calling on Lash Legend to be a new ally.
All that and more will go down tonight, so keep checking and refreshing for the most up-to-date results!
Here are your results for WWE SmackDown - November 7, 2025:
- Cody Rhodes opened the show, saying Drew McIntyre is in the rear-view and he wants someone new to step up. Aleister Black (with Zelina Vega) interrupted and set up a challenge for later.
- WWE Men's United States Championship Open Challenge: Ilja Dragunov (c) defeated Johnny Gargano by pinfall.
- R-Truth wants in on the Last Time is Now tournament and has his own balls to give to Nick Aldis, who informed him that his name is already in the tumbler to possibly be picked.
- Jade Cargill came out to say "I'm that bitch" and nothing else. Charlotte Flair then interrupted while Cargill was still out posing, to make her entrance for her match. But then, they cut to a commercial, and a backstage interaction between Chelsea Green & Alba Fyre and Michin & B-Fab, which then turned into Jade Cargill intimidating everyone, which then turned into B-Fab standing up to her, which then led to a match booked for next week. [WWE loves to do this stuff lately, for some reason]
- Nia Jax defeated Charlotte Flair by pinfall. Lash Legend attacked Alexa Bliss during this match to cause a distraction and is now aligned with Jax.
- WWE Women's United States Championship Match: Chelsea Green defeated Giulia (c) by pinfall to win the title!
- Backstage, Solo Sikoa hyped up the MFTs about how they can take out Sami Zayn, Ilja Dragunov's United States title, and how Talla Tonga will destroy Rey Fenix.
- Backstage, Alexa Bliss was being checked on by medical, with Charlotte Flair by her side. Out of nowhere, Asuka was the doctor and spit mist in their faces.
- Talla Tonga defeated Rey Fenix by pinfall. Shinsuke Nakamura and The Motor City Machine Guns helped out at the start of the match to take out the MFTs, but it ultimately didn't matter. Post-match, Sami Zayn ran out with a steel chair to fend off any more of a beating on Fenix, disobeying orders from Nick Aldis to not get involved as he's not medically cleared yet.
- The Miz was interviewed by Cathy Kelley about the John Cena tournament. Miz was upset about Carmelo Hayes and that he has to go through a whole tournament to fight Cena, and how he has to fight Jey Uso.
- Aleister Black vs Cody Rhodes ended up with a ref bump, Drew McIntyre going on the attack, Damian Priest running out to help make the save and go after both McIntyre and Black, and Nick Aldis announcing that Drew has been suspended.
