WWE has announced three matches for the next episode of Friday Night SmackDown on Friday, October 31, which will take place at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The new United States Champion, Ilja Dragunov, is set to continue his reign as a fighting champion as he hosts another Open Challenge for his title. This comes after Dragunov’s successful defense on this week’s show against Aleister Black, a match that saw interference from Damian Priest.
Also on the show, a major women’s division grudge match is scheduled, as Alexa Bliss will go one-on-one with her former friend and bitter rival, the dominant Nia Jax. In other action, Carmelo Hayes is set to take on Kit Wilson in a singles match.
The updated card for next week’s SmackDown is below:
- WWE United States Championship Open Challenge: Ilja Dragunov (c) vs. TBA
- Alexa Bliss vs. Nia Jax
