WWE SmackDown is scheduled to take place tonight from the Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona. Two matches have been announced for the show.
WWE has announced that Kofi and Xavier Woods will take on the Viking Raiders in a tag team match. Viking Raiders made their return on SmackDown last week with a brutal attack on the New Day members.
Also, Alexa Bliss, Liv Morgan and Asuka will face Raquel Rodriguez, Lacey Evans and Shotzi in a six-woman tag team match. These six competitors are scheduled to battle each other at Money in the Bank this Saturday.
TONIGHT, don’t miss the “Battle of the Brands” when the #WWERaw and #SmackDown competitors of the Women’s #MITB Ladder Match square off in a Six-Woman Tag Team Match. Plus, @TrueKofi and @AustinCreedWins vs. The #VikingRaiders, at 8/7 c. https://t.co/Gz5rzEPovs

Only one spot remains in the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Kevin Owens was supposed to face Ezekiel, Elias or Elrod for the MITB qualifying match this past Monday Night RAW, but it was canceled. Therefore, the match could take place tonight.
Two weeks ago, Happy Corbin and Pat McAfee started a rivalry on SmackDown, and last week McAfee issued a challenge to Corbin for a match at SummerSlam. Happy Corbin will be responding to McAfee’s challenge tonight.
However, Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and his SummerSlam opponent Brock Lesnar are not currently advertised for tonight’s SmackDown.
We will update you when we receive more details. Stay tuned with The Spotlight.
