What to expect for the upcoming Friday Night SmackDown episode?

As of this writing, three matches are set for tonight's Friday Night SmackDown, a championship celebration, and another appearance from Roman Reigns.

Roman Reigns made his grand return at the 2024 SummerSlam after being last seen at WrestleMania 40. The Original Tribal Chief attacked Solo Sikoa at The Biggest Party of the Summer, and last week on SmackDown, he attacked the entire Bloodline. It would be interesting to see what The Head of the Table has in store tonight.

Speaking of The Bloodline, they might meet their new challengers for the gold soon. In the upcoming episode, Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins of The Street Profits and Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa of DIY will compete to determine who will be the next contenders for the WWE Tag Team Titles.

Tiffany Stratton has been busy on WWE SmackDown to plan her best friend, Nia Jax's, party after the latter won the WWE Women's Championship at SummerSlam. Fans and The Irresistible Force will see what Ms. Money in the Bank has prepared tonight.

Tonight's WWE SmackDown will also see singles action from the women's and men's divisions. Naomi will battle Blair Davenport, now allied with The Unholy Union. Meanwhile, Kevin Owens will battle Grayson Waller before the former goes against Cody Rhodes at Bash in Berlin for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
