WrestleMania Segment & Two Matches Set For Tonight’s Smackdown
February 26, 2021WWE has announced three things for tonight.
Tonight’s Friday Night Smackdown will see all of the fallout from last week end’s Elimination Chamber event. As far as tonight goes, we know of a segment with WrestleMania implications. Plus it was announced that two tag team matches will be taking place tonight as well.
First off, at Elimination Chamber Edge declared that he will face Roman Reigns at WrestleMania for the Universal Championship. Now tonight WWE has announced that we will find out who Bianca Belair will challenge as well at WrestleMania.
At the 2021 Royal Rumble, Bianca Belair outlasted 29 other Superstars to triumph in the Royal Rumble Match, giving her the opportunity to headline WrestleMania against whichever World Champion she chooses.
With speculation at a fever pitch, will she select SmackDown Women’s Champion Sasha Banks on The Grandest Stage of Them All, a Superstar whom she has exchanged words and even teamed with in recent weeks? Might she pull a Charlotte Flair and select NXT Champion Io Shirai? Or does the up-and-coming Superstar think she is ready for Raw Women’s Champion Asuka?
Find out who The EST of WWE will face at The Showcase of the Immortals, tonight at 8/7 C on SmackDown!
As far as action goes, We know that the Street Profits will take on the team of Sami Zayn and King Corbin. Corbin and Zayn teamed up a few weeks ago to earn spots in the Smackdown Elimination Chamber and now it looks like WWE could have plans to keep them together as a team.
The Street Profits have been clamoring for a rematch against SmackDown Tag Team Champions Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode for several weeks, going so far as to approach WWE Official Sonya Deville about the issue during the live WWE Elimination Chamber Kickoff Show last Sunday.
Tonight, Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford will go head-to-head with Sami Zayn & King Corbin, both of whom just finished battling inside this year’s Elimination Chamber. Can Corbin and Zayn get back on the same page after their experience inside the career-altering structure? Will The Street Profits finally prove they have what it takes to reclaim their tag team gold? Don’t miss SmackDown, tonight at 8/7 C on FOX.
Another tag team match was announced as well as Rey and Dominic Mysterio will be taking on Otis and Chad Gable. This match comes off of Otis and Gable attacking Rey after the match last week on Smackdown.
Last week, Chad Gable & Otis got disqualified in their match against Rey & Dominik Mysterio, as they continued their attack after the bell with an earth-shattering splash by Otis off the second rope on The Master of the 619.
In the wake of the matchup, Gable declared in a WWE Network Exclusive video that their actions were, in fact, a victory and that his larger-than-life cohort is finally getting the full extent of his Alpha Academy training.
With the two teams once again squaring off this week and the Mysterios surely out for redemption, will Otis and Gable’s new level of aggression continue? Don’t miss Friday Night SmackDown, tonight at 8/7 C on FOX.
So far these are the only three things announced for tonight’s Friday Night Smackdown. If we hear anything else regarding tonight’s Smackdown we will have it.
Also remember that we will be live tonight breaking down the entire show on both the PWUnlimited YouTube and PWUnlimited Twitch Channels.
