WWE Friday Night SmackDown Full Card and Predictions
This section will be updated when matches are announced for the card.
Six Women Tag Team Match: Charlotte Flair, Tiffany Stratton & Chelsea Green vs. Jade Cargill, B-Fab and Michin
The feud between Charlotte Flair, Tiffany Stratton and Chelsea Green vs. Jade Cargill, B-Fab and Michin will continue with a six-woman tag team match. Although B-Fab and Michin have continued to grow alongside Cargill, this remains a one-sided match. That is because Flair and Stratton are former world champions, giving their team more top-tier talent.
Charlotte Flair, Tiffany Stratton & Chelsea Green vs. Jade Cargill, B-Fab and Michin Prediction: Charlotte Flair, Tiffany Stratton & Chelsea Green pick up the win.
AAA Cruiserweight Championship Match: Rey Fenix (c) vs. El Hijo Del Vikingo
Rey Fenix has been on a hot streak since winning the AAA Cruiserweight Championship. This is a fantastic match between two of the current best wrestlers in AAA. Since Vikingo already has the Latin American title, I think Fenix will edge out a victory in this match.
Rey Fenix vs. El Hijo Del Vikingo Prediction: Rey Fenix retains the title against El Hijo Del Vikingo.
Singles Match: Brie Bella vs. Lainey Reid
For the first time since 2018, Brie Bella will have a singles match on SmackDown. Bella is facing Lainey Reid, a member of Fatal Influence. Reid is extremely talented and has a bright future in WWE, but has a tough test in WWE Hall of Famer Brie Bella. Since her return, Brie Bella has proved she can still keep up with the current women’s division.
Brie Bella vs. Lainey Reid Prediction: Brie Bella defeats Lainey Reid.
