This Friday night, WWE SmackDown will be broadcast from Knoxville, Tennessee, featuring appearances by two headline stars: the undisputed WWE Champion John Cena and the recently returned Cody Rhodes. Their presence will build up to a tag team match scheduled for Money In The Bank on June 7th.
Cody Rhodes made his WWE comeback during Saturday night’s main event, interrupting a world heavyweight championship bout between Logan Paul and Jey Uso by attacking Cena. This interference has set up the Money In The Bank event, where Cena teams with Logan Paul, and Rhodes partners with Jey Uso.
The Money In The Bank qualifiers continue on Friday’s SmackDown. In the men’s division, a triple threat match will take place between former US Champion Jacob Fatu, Andrede, and Carmelo Hayes, with the winner earning a spot in the men’s Money In The Bank ladder match.
Meanwhile, the women’s division will also see a high-stakes qualifier as Jade Cargill, Naomi, and Nia Jax face off, with the victor moving one step closer to winning the women’s Money In The Bank briefcase.
Fan Take: This event is shaping up to be a thrilling prelude to Money In The Bank, injecting fresh excitement into the WWE scene with the return of Cody Rhodes and high-stakes matches in both divisions. For WWE fans, these developments promise intense rivalries and game-changing moments that could redefine the sport’s future.
