Updated lineup for tonight’s WWE SmackDown
Another match and segment have been announced for tonight’s episode of SmackDown.
Sami Zayn vs. Baron Corbin is set for the show, which comes after Corbin laid out Zayn and Kevin Owens last week. Zayn and Owens were attempting a post-match beatdown on AJ Styles after he defeated Corbin in last week’s main event before Corbin hit the End of Days on both of them.
Styles will defend his WWE Championship against Owens, Zayn, Corbin, and Dolph Ziggler in a fatal five-way match at Fastlane on March 11th.
A face-to-face segment with The Usos and The New Day is also scheduled for SmackDown. New Day won a number one contender’s match against Chad Gable & Shelton Benjamin last Tuesday (with Gable & Benjamin complaining that they had the match won at one point while the referee was distracted by Kofi Kingston) to become The Usos’ Tag Team title challengers at Fastlane.
As was revealed yesterday, John Cena will appear on SmackDown tonight as his build to WrestleMania continues. The storyline is that Cena is heading to the brand to find a path to WrestleMania after failing at the Royal Rumble and the Elimination Chamber and being told that a match with The Undertaker is impossible.
Ruby Riott vs. Naomi, which was announced last week, is also set for tonight.
