A new episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown is here and it’s shaping up to be an interesting show.
With just hours until bell time, it’s time to look ahead starting with tonight’s episode of SmackDown. Several matches and a segment have been announced thus far for this show including a non-title match between SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley and Nikki Cross.
This contest will have Survivor Series implications on the line as Cross will earn the final spot on the women’s Team SmackDown if she can defeat Bayley. As of this writing, there’s no word yet on who will get the fifth and final spot if she loses.
