Two matches, Roman Reigns interview set for WWE SmackDown
WWE has made a few announcements for SmackDown’s Clash of Champions go-home show.
Intercontinental Champion Jeff Hardy will face Sami Zayn in a non-title match on SmackDown this Friday. The match comes in advance of Hardy defending his title against Zayn and AJ Styles in a triple threat ladder match at Sunday’s Clash of Champions pay-per-view.
Alexa Bliss vs. Lacey Evans will also take place on this Friday’s SmackDown. Nikki Cross defeated Evans on SmackDown last week. After the match, Bliss went into a trance when Evans mentioned The Fiend. Bliss laid out Evans by hitting Sister Abigail outside of the ring.
Cross is challenging for Bayley’s SmackDown Women’s Championship at Clash of Champions.
Ahead of his Universal Championship defense against Jey Uso at Clash of Champions, Roman Reigns will take part in an in-ring interview on Friday’s SmackDown. Reigns will “share his side of the story on his relationship with Jey Uso before their Universal title match.” Reigns & Uso have defeated Baron Corbin & Sheamus in tag matches on SmackDown each of the past two weeks, but there’s been tension between Reigns and Uso after both matches.
