This week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown will continue the build for SummerSlam, and it sounds like it’s shaping up to be an interesting show. Asuka will be defending the WWE Women’s Championship against Bianca Belair, but it sounds like the match won’t have a clean finish.
The WRKD Wrestling account is reporting that Bianca Belair and Asuka might have company in their title match tonight which seemingly implies that Charlotte Flair could be getting involved. Both Bianca Belair and Charlotte have been setting their sights on the WWE Women’s Championship in recent weeks. It has yet to be confirmed but all signs point to WWE booking a triple threat match for the belt at SummerSlam.
Last week Jey Uso challenged Roman Reigns to an Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match and it’s being reported that Jey will face more resistance as his warpath continues tonight.
WWE has also announced that AJ Styles, Santos Escobar, Butch and Grayson Waller will face off for a shot at the US Title. Sheamus & Ridge Holland will also face Pretty Deadly tonight.
