Title Match Announced For Tonight’s Friday Night Smackdown
April 23, 2021A champion set to defend for the first time since winning.
Tonight is Friday Night Smackdown and nothing was really announced for the show going into today. All WWE was promoting was that Seth Rollins is not done with Cesaro and who could step up to Roman Reigns. With that, we now know of a title match taking place tonight.
WWE has announced that Apollo Crews will be defending the Intercontinental Championship tonight on Smackdown. WWE has not announced who his challenger will be though in this match. Crews defeated Big E for the title back at WrestleMania and this is the first time we have seen him since then.
In the wake of his controversial victory over Big E at WrestleMania, new Intercontinental Champion Apollo Crews will put his title on the line tonight with the menacing Commander Azeez in his corner.
The brutal Crews stands as the pride of his Nigerian ancestors. Who will dare oppose him for the illustrious title? Find out on SmackDown, tonight at 8/7 C on FOX.
