Preview & Predictions for WWE SmackDown:
On tap for tonight's episode, Sami Zayn is set to continue carrying on the legacy of John Cena's United States Championship Open Challenge matches. Carmelo Hayes has been looking for another shot at the US title for a long enough time and bugged SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis, ultimately getting his match for this show. This flies in the face of The Miz, Melo's tag team partner and mentor, who continues to try to convince Hayes to focus his attention on becoming tag team champions alongside The Miz so that Mike can also share in the riches. Whether that will get between them or not remains to be seen, but it can be assumed Sami Zayn will retain the title, as he has Solo Sikoa gunning to win that title back from him.
Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair also seem like they'll be facing Chelsea Green and Alba Fyre for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship on the line. Bliss and Flair were previously scheduled to face Fyre and Piper Niven, but that match with The Secret Hervice got changed and Niven hasn't been seen in the past few weeks, along with how The Queen has been seemingly dealing with an injury. After fighting at NXT Homecoming, though, it can be assumed that this match won't be called off this time.
We'll also get something with Cody Rhodes to help sell his title match against Drew McIntyre, as this is the go-home show prior to Wrestlepalooza. Expect stuff for Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena and some other promotional material for the other matches (like AJ Lee and CM Punk against Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins) as well.
All that and more will go down tonight, so keep checking and refreshing for the most up-to-date results!
