With WWE Backlash 2025 right around the corner, going down next Saturday, May 10th at the Enterprise Center in St. Louis, Missouri, WWE is quickly adding matches to the card.
On this week’s episode of WWE SmackDown, Damian Priest and LA Knight were in a match that Solo Sikoa interfered in, followed by Jacob Fatu joining in the attack. As a result, SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis informed Jacob Fatu that he would have to defend his title against both Damian Priest and LA Knight in a Triple Threat match.
To make things worse, though, Solo Sikoa reminded Aldis that last week on Friday Night SmackDown, Drew McIntyre technically won a No. 1 contender’s match to become the next challenger for the United States Championship. This made Aldis decide to add The Scottish Warrior to the mix, too, bumping it up to a Fatal 4-Way.
The Samoan Werewolf isn’t phased, though, as he’s planning to dog walk all of the competition.
IT’S HAPPENING!
