WWE Champion Cody Rhodes is set to team up with his close friend Randy Orton, to battle against Bron Breakker and Bron Reed of The Vision in a tag team match with the World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins being a big factor in all of this.

Tiffany Stratton, the WWE Women’s Champion, has a tough challenge of Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer at Crown Jewel PLE, and it will be interesting to see what she has to say about her upcoming opponent on this week’s SmackDown.
