00:01What's going on, everyone?
00:02It's Megan Morant for WWE Now.
00:04Getting you set with everything that you need to know for
00:06tonight's Friday Night SmackDown on the USA Network.
00:12Sami Zayn is quickly becoming a huge headache for
00:16SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis.
00:19He becomes number one contender.
00:21Wait a minute.
00:22Sami Zayn.
00:25Two weeks ago,
00:26Zayn interfered in the title match between the undisputed WWE
00:29champion CM Punk and Kevin Owens.
00:32But Zayn wasn't done as he interfered yet again in last week's
00:36number one contender's match between Owens, Gunter, and Finn Balor.
00:41So what will the fallout be from Zayn's recent actions?
00:46The animosity between Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton has reached an all-time high.
00:51Last week, the two traded intense and highly personal verbal attacks,
00:56with Bolt trying to get under the other's skin.
00:59With 48 hours to go before Sunday night's main event, what will Rhodes want to talk about tonight?
01:06Tonight, the new team of Shinsuke Nakamura and Kiyoki will make their debut as they take on The Miz and
01:12Kit Wilson.
01:13Can the pair get off to a hot start on SmackDown with a win tonight?
01:18Julia and Blake Monroe have been at each other's throats for weeks, but they have yet to face off one
01:24-on-one.
01:25In what was supposed to be her debut match two weeks ago, Blake Monroe attacked Julia before the bell could
01:31even ring,
01:32alleging that Julia is beneath her.
01:34The following week, the beautiful Madness returned the favor, attacking Monroe backstage.
01:40Tonight, the two warring superstars are slated to do battle inside the ring.
01:45So who will gain the upper hand in this intense rivalry?
01:50In just two nights, Sunday night's main event will go down live from Atlanta.
01:55In addition to Cody Rhodes facing Randy Orton, United States Champion Baron Corbin will face Lil Yachty.
02:01If Yachty can survive five minutes with the champ, Trick Williams will earn an immediate title match against Corbin.
02:10Plus, Obafemi goes one-on-one with Braun Breaker in a must-see match.
02:14And Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss, and Tatum Paxley will take on Jade Cargill, Mee Chin, and B-Fab.
02:19Do not miss all of the action when it goes down live on Sunday night at 8 Eastern, 5 Pacific,
02:25on Peacock in the U.S., and on YouTube internationally.
02:30That's the latest for Around the WWE.
02:32We'll see you guys tonight at 8 Eastern, 7 Central on the USA Network.
