WWE SmackDown Spoilers: Major WWE Superstar Makes Surprising Return (Results)
WWE Friday Night SmackDown is being held in Glasgow, Scotland this afternoon, which means we've got spoilers brewing before the show airs on FOX via tape delay.
The show is set to feature a heated grudge match between Kevin Owens and Solo Sikoa of The Bloodline. Sikoa will have Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa at ringside, so it'll be interesting to see if KO has backup. If not, he could be in for a brutal beatdown.
We'll also see the final push before the Undisputed WWE Championship match between Cody Rhodes and AJ Styles at Clash at the Castle 2024. Following AJ's fake retirement stunt, it'll be put up or say "I Quit" during tomorrow's PLE. What do Rhodes and Styles have planned one day before the big title showdown?
All of this and more will be covered in our spoiler-filled edition of the Friday Night SmackDown results.
