Tiffany Stratton (c) vs Jade Cargill vs Nia Jax – WWE Women’s title triple-threat match

During the Wrestlepalooza go-home show last week, Nia Jax cut a segment mocking Tiffany Stratton and Jade Cargill. Stratton then appeared and cut her own promo before walking towards the ring to confront Jax. Security rushed in to stop her as Jade Cargill darted in, but was also stopped in her tracks by security.

General Manager Nick Aldis appeared, announcing that Stratton would defend the title this week on SmackDown in a triple-threat match against Jax and Cargill. The winner of the match will battle Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer in a ‘Champion vs Champion’ match for the WWE Women’s Crown Jewel Championship.

B-Fab & Michin vs Kiana James & Giulia – Tag team match

As teased by Michin in a backstage segment, she and B-Fab will team up to battle Giulia and Kiana James in a tag team match.

Michin, during the September 12 episode of the show, saved B-Fab, who was being attacked by Giulia and James. The two will now team up to counter the Women’s US Champion and her official representative. WWE is yet to announce this match for the show.
