The newest edition of WWE SmackDown will happen at the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland, where John Cena will make an appearance on his 2025 farewell tour. With just eight days remaining until his next singles match at Clash in Paris Premium Live Event (PLE) against Logan Paul, it will be interesting to see what will be on the mind of the 17-time WWE Champion.
R-Truth, who considers John Cena as his childhood hero, will take on Aleister Black in singles match once again after simmering rivalry for weeks. In the men’s tag team division, Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley of the Motor City Machine Guns (MCMG) will battle in a tag team match against Carmelo Hayes and The Miz of the Melo Don’t Miz, to get a step closer to winning the WWE Tag Team Championship.
It is a stacked card put together for WWE SmackDown, which is expected to throw a few surprises apart from scheduled matches, just like every other weekly show in the promotion.
