WWE SmackDown Card and Preview
Money in the Bank qualifying matches kicked off last week and the first name that punched their ticket for the men’s side was Solo Sikoa. He won his triple-threat qualifier getting the win over Rey Fenix and Jimmy Uso. This week, it’ll be Aleister Black, LA Knight and Shinsuke Nakamura vying for a shot at the coveted briefcase. All three have captured WWE gold in the past but none have been able to secure a World Title. Will a victory here be the first step for one of these superstars to finally win the biggest prize of their career?
On the women’s side, Alexa Bliss locked in her Money in the Bank spot winning her qualifier last Friday over Chelsea Green and Michin. This past Monday, Roxanne Perez and Rhea Ripley joined her by qualifying as well. This week’s Smackdown will continue filling out the participants with a massive qualifying match. Charlotte Flair, Zelina Vega and Smackdown’s latest acquisition, Giulia, will lock horns in a triple-threat bout. With the amount of talent in this match, this one is sure to light up the fans in Savannah.
Fraxiom has wasted no time making an impact on the main roster. They’ve looked spectacular since making their debut and even scored a huge non-title victory over current Tag Team Champions, The Street Profits. This week, they’ll get another shot at the champs, this time with the gold on the line. It won’t be an easy task as The Profits have been red hot since capturing the gold back in March. But with a great deal of momentum on their side, Fraxiom may just be able to pull off the biggest victory of their careers.
We can also expect appearances from United States Champion Jacob Fatu, Drew McIntyre, Damian Priest and much more!
