Hey you! Yes, you. Want to see someone go from having two career WWE matches to getting a shot at the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship? You might if you watch WWE SmackDown from Anaheim tonight.
OK, we’re getting just a tad ahead of ourselves. Here’s what we know: Logan Paul is going to appear on tonight’s show, and has teased a “massive announcement.” Credible sources have reported that WWE has a press conference scheduled for tomorrow where it will reveal the main event for Crown Jewel in November, and that the main event will be Paul vs. Roman Reigns.
So put two and two together and … yeah.
Now, granted, it could be a non-title match. For WWE storyline purposes, that might even make sense, as Paul has really done nothing to earn a shot at the most prestigious prize in all of pro wrestling, and two matches definitely don’t tend to give on that opportunity in real life.
But who knows? We’ll all find out together tonight on FOX.
There’s more that’s been advertised as well. A Fatal 4-Way will decide which tag team is the No. 1 contender for The Usos. Raquel Rodriguez will go one-on-one with Bayley, and Ricochet will face off against honorary Bloodline member Sami Zayn.
Let’s be real, though, the Paul thing is the big deal, and if it turns out to be true, kind of crazy. Well, crazy any other year than this one, maybe. It’s been quite the ride in pro wrestling in 2022 and it’s not over yet.
Assuming you’re tuning in tonight, you’ll know what’s gone down as soon as we do. If not, please consider bookmarking this page and checking back throughout the night as we update it with the latest WWE SmackDown results as they happen.
