WWE SmackDown Tonight Full Match Card

The United States Championship gets a steel cage stipulation as Trick Williams faces Baron Corbin again. Williams regained the title from Corbin at Sunday Night's Main Event after Corbin had previously taken it from him at SummerSlam. WWE says their rivalry has included several physical confrontations since Corbin's return, and Friday's match gives Corbin another shot at the championship.

The other two matches are tied directly to Money in the Bank. CM Punk, Finn Balor and Gunther will meet in the men's qualifier, while Giulia, Charlotte Flair and Lash Legend will compete in the women's qualifier. The winners will take the remaining SmackDown spots in their respective ladder matches heading into Money in the Bank.
