Drew McIntyre retaliates; Seth Rollins appears & other potential spoilers for WWE SmackDown tonight (October 3, 2025)

Tonight’s episode of the Blue Brand will emanate from Ohio!

The October 3 episode of Friday Night SmackDown is set to air live from the Heritage Bank Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. Multiple stars, including Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton, Randy Orton, Jacob Fatu, Jade Cargill, and Sami Zayn, are being advertised for the show.

The final U.S. show before Crown Jewel will feature a massive tag team match, Sami Zayn continuing his U.S. Title Open Challenge, Damian Priest in action, and an appearance by Tiffany Stratton ahead of her showdown with Stephanie Vaquer. 

Ahead of tonight’s fallout show, here are the top three potential spoilers that might be in store for fans on WWE SmackDown in Cincinnati, Ohio.

4. Aleister Black blindsides Damian Priest again

On last week’s segment, Kit Wilson berated Damian Priest for the attack last week, calling him out on the toxic masculinity. Aliester Black, who was behind Priest during the segment, then attacked, taking Priest out with the Black Mass kick.

Priest is scheduled for action tonight, though WWE has yet to confirm his opponent. However, there’s strong speculation that Kit Wilson will be the one stepping up. Aleister could once again capitalize on the distraction and attack Priest during the match tonight.

3. La Primera interrupts

WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton is set for an appearance this week ahead of the upcoming Crown Jewel PLE. Stratton will battle Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer in a ‘Champion vs Champion’ clash for the women’s Crown Jewel title.

The segment will be used to create hype around the two Champions battling in Perth, and fans might expect an appearance from Stephanie Vaquer as well. Tiffany paid a visit to Vaquer on this week’s Raw, and Vaquer might repay the favor by interrupting Stratton’s promo tonight.

2. Seth Rollins’ appearance

Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes is set to team up with Randy Orton to battle the team of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. This match comes following last week’s segment, where Orton aided Rhodes, who was ambushed by Breakker and Reed.

World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, who is set to face Rhodes for the men’s Crown Jewel title has already been having fierce promo battles with Rhodes for the past week. Rollins might make an appearance tonight, unleashing chaos and attacking Rhodes with the help of Breakker and Reed.

1. Drew McIntyre retaliates

During last week’s show, Jacob Fatu interrupted Drew McIntyre‘s promo, and the two stars exchanged shots with Fatu coming out on top. This was Fatu’s first major appearance since losing the US title to Solo Sikoa and the beatdown afterwards on the fallout show.

McIntyre usually shines in these exchanges, but the script was flipped last week, which will likely irk McIntyre. The Scottish Warrior is likely going to retaliate tonight, making the feud even more personal for the two powerhouses.
