The Tribal Chief exclusively returns to SmackDown, a championship match and more will be taking place on the May 12th episode of SmackDown.

Following the 2023 WWE Draft, the SmackDown roster is now set, with Roman Reigns being the number one pick overall. With Reigns being absent since the Raw after WrestleMania, WWE are promoting that The Head of the Table is returning with a purpose. As The Usos have failed to capture the tag team titles from Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, expect a confrontation to take place.

On the May 1st episode of Raw, Bayley and Dakota Kai would defeat Women’s Tag Team Champions Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez in a non-title match. A rematch has been announced for SmackDown, this time with the titles on the line.
