A title match and more has been announced for the October 31 episode of WWE SmackDown.
Looking to continue the United States Open Challenge, Ilja Dragunov will once again be in action. The Mad Dragon’s opponent has not been confirmed at the time of writing, and will likely be revealed on the show as opposed to being announced ahead of time.
The other two matches that have been announced for the show will see Carmelo Hayes take on Kit Wilson, and former friends Alexa Bliss and Nia Jax renew their rivalry as they will go one on one. Both of these matches were set up in backstage segments on the October 24 edition of the show.
As this will be the final episode of SmackDown before Saturday Night’s Main Event, it is expected that the show will heavily focus on the build to the upcoming special, which will see Cody Rhodes defend his WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre, and Jade Cargill looking to win the WWE Women’s Championship from Tiffany Stratton.
While this has not been confirmed, a Halloween-themed match or segment will likely occur on the show, given that SmackDown will fall on the day itself.
The Following Has Been Announced For The October 31 WWE SmackDown:
- United States Champion Ilja Dragunov defends in an open challenge
- Alexa Bliss vs. Nia Jax
- Carmelo Hayes vs. Kit Wilson
- The final build to Saturday Night’s Main Event
