Some interesting developments can take place on SmackDown tonight.

WWE will return to the United States after a successful European Tour to host the June 12 episode of  Friday Night SmackDown from the Amica Mutual Pavilion in Providence, Rhode Island.

It will see the final opening rounds of the King and Queen of the Ring tournament and other feuds heading into WWE’s next PLE, Night of Champions. So, here are the top five potential spoilers that might be in store for WWE SmackDown tonight:

5. Blake Monroe finally debuts

WWE has been promoting Blake Monroe’s impending arrival on SmackDown for weeks. While she did make a backstage appearance a few weeks ago, the fans have yet to see her in front of them in the ring. So, tonight’s edition of SmackDown could see the former Mariah May finally have a proper debut on the blue brand.

As revealed by GM Nick Aldis on SmackDown last week, Gunther will announce the stipulation of his upcoming Undisputed WWE title match against Cody Rhodes next week.

After his controversial loss to Rhodes at Clash in Italy, it is likely that The Ring General might pick a physically grueling match stipulation like Hell in a Cell or an I Quit match to ensure victory and major damage to Rhodes.

3. Nick Aldis bans Sami Zayn

Sami Zayn has been butting heads with Nick Aldis amid his bid to insert himself in the World title feud between Cody Rhodes and Gunther. With their aforementioned segment set for SmackDown tonight, Aldis might ban Zayn from the arena to avoid interference.

2. Charlotte Flair wins QOTR match

In the final opening round of the Queen of the Ring tournament, Charlotte Flair, Jade Cargill, Sol Ruca, and Lyra Valkyria will compete. Looking at the fight field, it can be said that Flair, with the most experience and accomplishments, will reign supreme and advance to the next round.

1. Jey Uso wins the KOTR match

In the King of the Ring tournament, the Fatal 4-Way bout will see LA Knight, Jey Uso, Royce Keys, and Finn Balor square off. It can be assumed that The Bloodline might run interference and help Jey secure the win to move to the next round.

The June 12 edition of Friday Night SmackDown will air live from the Amica Mutual Pavilion in Providence, Rhode Island. The show marks WWE’s short return to the United States as the promotion travels back to Europe on June 20 before Night of Champions.
