Ricky Saints will make his main-roster debut tonight.
BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, will host tonight’s May 1 edition of Friday Night SmackDown, and after an explosive fallout show of WrestleMania last week, fans are anticipating another show packed with high-stakes action and drama.
The show is also anticipated to intensify the build towards the upcoming Backlash PLE, after three matches were announced for the show during this week’s Raw.
The addition of NXT talents has also reshaped the division and continues to do so with Ricky Saint’s debut, which is set for tonight in Tulsa.
One of the marquee matches announced for next Friday’s WWE SmackDown will see Charlotte Flair go head-to-head with Jacy Jayne. The bout carries added intensity as Flair looks to settle the score following last week’s chaotic events.
Fatal Influence launched a brutal attack on Flair, Alexa Bliss, Brie Bella, and Paige, costing them a shot at the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. Now, “The Queen” is out for revenge in what promises to be a heated showdown.
