This week’s episode of SmackDown will emanate from Seattle!
The April 11 episode of Friday Night SmackDown is set to emanate from the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Washington. As the WrestleMania 41 PLE approaches, storylines and feuds are reaching a boiling point as the promotion announces clashes for the ‘grandest stage’.
Similar to last week’s show of SmackDown and this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw, the 04/11 show will also feature Mania match announcements.
The promotion has announced multiple matches and segments for the 04/11 show including the return of the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes who is set to defend the title against John Cena at the grandest stage.
A women’s Gauntlet match is also announced for the show where six different tag teams will battle for the number one contender spot for the WWE Women’s Championship. The winner of the match will battle the current champs Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez at the WrestleMania 41 PLE.
After their fiery promos on the 04/04 show, Drew McIntyre and Damian Priest are set to go face-to-face on this week’s show, and with the level of animosity between the two, chaos will ensue when they meet.
Following his debut last week, where he defeated Nathan Frazer in a singles match, Rey Fenix is now set to battle Legado Del Fantasma’s Berto in a singles match.
