The Night of Champions go-home show will emanate from Riyadh!
The June 27 episode of Friday Night SmackDown is set to serve as the go-home show for the upcoming Night of Champions 2025. The show will air live from the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Stars will meet for the final time before their clash at the PLE.
Multiple top stars, including Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena, Cody Rhodes, LA Knight, Nia Jax, Randy Orton, and WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton, are being advertised for the show. The promotion has announced a stacked card for the show, including three title clashes.
Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena is set to make an appearance on this week’s SmackDown, ahead of his title defense against CM Punk at Night of Champions.
Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton will put the title on the line against Nia Jax once again, this time in a last woman standing match. The feud between the two stars reignited when Jax attacked Stratton following her return.
However, the match was announced last week, following Jax’s beatdown of Stratton, where Naomi tried to capitalize and cash in the WWE Money in the Bank contract. Jax stopped Naomi from cashing in and is now looking to capture the title again.
The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford) are set to defend the WWE Tag Team titles against The Wyatt Sicks (Joe Gacy & Dexter Lumis). The Wyatt Sicks have been terrorizing the whole tag team division and crushed the Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin) when they tried to fight back.
With the win against the former tag champs, Wyatt Sicks are now set to battle the Champions, with the title on the line in Riyadh.
In the third announced title clash on the show, Women’s United States Champion Zelina Vega will put the title on the line against Giulia. The former NXT Women’s Champion put Vega on notice before attacking the Champion, kicking off their feud.
Giulia is determined to prove that the U.S. Title doesn’t belong to Vega. In response, the champion, while calling out Giulia for her sneak attack, declared that Giulia would have to pry the title from her dead body, as that’s the only way she’ll ever win it.
