Ripley and Sky will align with the now former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss. They will need one more partner for the WarGames match at “Survivor Series.” Asuka, Kairi Sane, Jax, and Legend have also yet to announce their final partner.
At the moment, there’s no word on whether or not anyone else from the women’s WarGames match is scheduled for “Friday Night SmackDown.” As for the men’s WarGames match, there will be at least one participant who will perform for the blue brand. “Monday Night Raw” star Jey Uso will take on The Miz in a “Last Time Is Now” tournament match against The Miz.
What Else is Planned for WWE SmackDown?
LA Knight, who also performs on “Monday Night Raw,” will be another participant in the “Last Time Is Now” tournament. He will be facing a mystery opponent, and fans are wondering if it’s someone who has history with John Cena.
WWE Women’s Champion Jade Cargill will also be in action after having a run-in with a former friend last week. She will take on B-Fab in singles action. Cargill has undergone a significant shift in her character, and many believe her stock in professional wrestling has never been higher.
Sami Zayn is also scheduled to be on the show. He will address Solo Sikoa after preventing his faction from dealing further damage to Rey Fenix after the Mexican star fell short against Talla Tonga.
