Drew McIntyre attacks; Solo Sikoa retains & other potential spoilers for WWE SmackDown tonight (August 29, 2025)

Tonight’s episode will feature two title clashes!

Tonight’s Clash in Paris go-home show of Friday Night SmackDown is set to air live from the LDLC Arena in Lyon, France. Multiple big names, including John Cena, Cody Rhodes, Tiffany Stratton, Randy Orton, Jade Cargill, and LA Knight, are advertised for the show. 

The show will feature final build-ups to the matches, intense rivalries, and last-minute surprises as the highly anticipated show inches closer. The United States title and the Women’s Tag Team titles will be contested tonight at the LDLC Arena.

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

3. The Secret Hervice fails to win gold

One-half of the Women’s Tag Team Champions, Charlotte Flair, suffered defeat last week at the hands of Piper Niven in the absence of her tag partner, Alexa Bliss, who was not medically cleared to compete. 

The Champions will now have to defend the title tonight against Chelsea Green’s Secret Hervice (Piper Niven & Alba Fyre). However, the Secret Hervice will likley fail in their title path as Bliss’ presence will most likley even the numbers game and a title change on the go-home show seems unlikely given the popularity of Flair and Bliss’ tag team.

2. Solo Sikoa retains

During last week’s show, Solo Sikoa’s MFTs (JC Mateo & Tonga Loa) were battling the Street Profits (Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins) when Talla Tonga started interfering. Jimmy Uso took out Talla while Sami Zayn appeared, taking out Solo with a helluva kick.

This attack has set up a title match where Solo will defend the US title against Zayn, who is looking to capture one of the few titles that have eluded him in WWE. Although, the presence of the MFTs likely means Solo is going to retain the title. Additionally, it seems the promotion will continue their feud and a rematch at a PLE in the future is likely planned.

1. Drew McIntyre attacks

On last week’s show, Drew McIntyre was cutting a promo on Cody Rhodes, mentioning how he has no friends left, when Randy Orton appeared from behind and took out McIntyre with an RKO outta nowhere.

Reports of WWE mentioning the possibility of booking the two for this Sunday’s Clash in Paris PLE, or at the very least, the match will take place before McIntyre faces WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, means Drew is likely going to retaliate tonight, furthering their feud and setting up the reported clash.
