WWE SmackDown in Riyadh is looking to be an explosive show, with the matches announced
The WWE Universe has been witnessing the tensions between Tiffany Stratton and Nia Jax for a long time. It escalated further when Stratton cashed in her Money in the Bank contract on her and took the WWE Women's title from her.
The duo will collide once again after many battles on SmackDown next week. However, this time, it will be a Last Woman Standing match for the coveted title.
The second huge title match announced for the show is also from the women's division. Zelina Vega finally defied all odds when she defeated Chelsea Green to win her first singles title, the WWE Women's United States Championship. However, since that time, the newest arrival from NXT, Giulia, has been having altercations with her.
Two weeks ago, Giulia attacked her after what looked like she was trying to assist her against Green and her Secret Hervice.
Next week on SmackDown, Vega will have the chance to go one-on-one against Giulia with her title on the line.
The last showdown announced with title implications will see The Street Profits defending their WWE Tag Team Championships against the dark force of The Wyatt Sicks. Uncle Howdy's force has been targeting the tag team division ever since they made their return to WWE. They will have a major opportunity to claim their first piece of gold as a faction in WWE next week in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
With a stacked match card announced, the show before WWE Night of Champions is looking to be a blockbuster in its own right ahead of the main Premium Live Event.
