What to watch on Friday Night Smackdown
The war between the Bloodline and the Brawling Brutes rages on tonight as the Usos will put the undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship on the line against Sheamus and Butch. Last week, Sami Zayn defeated Sheamus in singles action with the help of Jey Uso. The Usos have racking up title defense after title defense and we’ll see if they can once again come out on top this evening.
With Smackdown in Pittsburgh tonight, hometown hero Kurt Angle will stop by for a special birthday celebration. It’s always a fun time when the Olympic gold medalist and WWE Hall of Famer shows up and we’ll see what he has in store for the crowd tonight.
Also on the show, Shotzi will go one-on-one with Shayna Baszler as her and Raquel Rodriguez’s beef with Ronda Ronda Rousey continues. We should also hear from Ricochet in the aftermath of him winning the Smackdown World Cup last week and should hear from Bray Wyatt as his beef with L.A. Knight escalates.
