That will be the case with Friday Night SmackDown next week and the episode of Monday Night Raw just days after at Arena CDMX in Mexico City, Mexico. WWE is making sure we get two absolutely loaded up shows too, with six championship bouts now official across both nights. SmackDown will feature its top two titles being defended while including some flavor from AAA: WWE Championship: CM Punk (c) vs. Sami Zayn Women’s Championship: Chelsea Green (c) vs. Nia Jax AAA Cruiserweight Championship: Rey Fenix (c) vs. Ricky Starks AAA Tag Team Championship: War Raiders (c) vs. R-Truth & Damian Priest Raw, meanwhile, will feature the winner of a month long tournament to find a top luchador to challenge Roman Reigns, Penta, get his big chance at the big time in front of a crowd that should be rabidly in his favor. The atmosphere alone makes this must see TV: World Heavyweight Championship: Roman Reigns (c) vs. Penta Intercontinental championship: Chad Gable (c) vs. Dragon Lee Yeah, this is going to rule so unbelievably hard. You ready for this?
