Before Charlotte Flair, Tatum Paxley and Alexa Bliss square off against Jade Cargill and his allies at Sunday Night’s Main Event, Flair and Paxley will have a tag team match on SmackDown tonight. They will battle against the reigning WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, Lainey Reed and Fallon Henley in a non-title tag team bout. Amid the rise of the new tag team of Shinsuke Nakamura and Kyoki, they will compete against the duo of Kit Wilson and The Miz on SmackDown tonight. Despite that, Punk will defend his championship against Johnny Gargano, who will finally wake up from his dread pose for months and have a major opportunity in his hand on SmackDown tonight.
