This week’s episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown from Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, WI, is slated to be a big show for a few different reasons.
The show
WWE has already confirmed several matches for the episode, including Rey Mysterio vs. Santos Escobar in a singles bout. This is the first match Mysterio has worked since last November when he went away to get surgery.
There will be two WrestleMania 40 Tag Team Title match qualifying tournament matches with The OC vs. Austin Theory & Grayson Waller and Authors of Pain vs. The Street Profits. The winners will be added to the six-pack challenge ladder match for the Tag Team Titles.
Streak
Finally, the show is being built around the face-to-face between Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes ahead of their tag team match as well as their title match at WrestleMania 40.
WrestleTix, which does a great job of tracking ticket sales for all pro wrestling events, reports that this week’s show will be the fifth consecutive sellout for SmackDown, with a setup of 11,027 fans.
