Multiple Spoilers For March 20 Episode Of WWE SmackDown In Raleigh, NC. (UPDATED x3)


WWE continues their road to WrestleMania 42 tonight in Raleigh, North Carolina with the March 20 episode of WWE SmackDown at the Lenovo Center.

Ahead of the show this evening, we have learned of some of the plans.

Scheduled to kick things off on the 3/20 blue brand prime time program at 8/7c on USA Network (North America) and Netflix (International) is the highly-anticipated singles showdown between “The Samoan Werewolf” Jacob Fatu and “The Scottish Warrior” Drew McIntyre.

Closing tonight’s show will be title action.

The advertised WWE Women’s Tag-Team Championship clash between reigning title-holders The Irresistible Forces (Nia Jax and Lash Legend) and WWE Hall of Fame challengers The Bella Twins (Nikki Bella and Brie Bella).

Also advertised for the show this evening is The Motor City Machine Guns vs. FrAxiom, Kit Wilson calls out Jelly Roll, Randy Orton will explain the Cody Rhodes attack, and The MFTs defend their WWE Tag-Team Championships against Damian Priest and R-Truth.

UPDATE:

Featured below is the internal listing and match/segment order for tonight’s show:

    * Jacob Fatu and Drew McIntyre will open the show. While this is supposed to be a match, this may take a different direction.
    * The MFTs vs. Damian Priest and R-Truth for the WWE Tag Team Championships is currently penciled in for the second match of the show.
    * Fraxiom vs. The Motor City Machine Guns.
    * Randy Orton in-ring segment.
    * Sami Zayn vs. Aleister Black in a singles match.
    * Carmelo Hayes will hold another United States Championship Open Challenge.
    * The Irresistible Forces vs. The Bella Twins for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship is expected to close out the show. That could change.

* Card is subject to change!

UPDATE x2: Cody Rhodes is not expected to appear live tonight, as he sells the attack at the hands of Randy Orton last week.

Ilja Dragunov is expected to be the challenger for Carmelo Hayes’ latest open challenge defense of the U.S. title.

UPDATE x3: A “chaotic” scene is expected to lead to one of tonight’s matches being pulled, presumably McIntyre-Fatu, with the focus being on their intense rivalry leading to a WrestleMania match, which has been rumored.

Rhea Ripley and Royce Keys are backstage. Ripley is expected to be factored into the show, likely with her WrestleMania 42 opponent WWE Women’s Champion Jade Cargill, while Keys is set for a pre-show dark match.
