U.S. title celebration, four matches added to WWE SmackDown
WWE has made a bunch of new announcements for tonight’s SummerSlam fallout episode of SmackDown.
After winning the title from Logan Paul at SummerSlam, new United States Champion LA Knight will hold a celebration on SmackDown tonight. There will also be an Andrade vs. Santos Escobar number one contender’s match to determine who’s first in line for a shot at Knight’s title.
Another number one contender’s match will see DIY take on Pretty Deadly tonight. Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa lost the WWE Tag Team titles to Jacob Fatu & Tama Tonga last Friday and want a chance to reclaim the belts.
Due to interference from Blair Davenport, Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill were unable to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team titles from Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn last week. The title bout ended in a disqualification. Tonight, a singles match between Cargill and Fyre will take place.
The Street Profits vs. Austin Theory & Grayson Waller has also been announced for tonight. Tulsa, Oklahoma is hosting the episode.
