Bengaluru, July 24: With the conclusion of The Horror Show at Extreme Rules, WWE Friday Night SmackDown will follow Monday Night Raw an will kick off build up for SummerSlam 2020.
While we expect the initial buildups for the biggest party of the summer to begin tonight on SmackDown, there are plenty of fallouts from last Sunday's Extreme Rules PPV.
Tonight, we await updates on what's next in the championship scenarios in both the men and women's division, while the Miz TV returns with Naomi as guest. Plus, a packed main event is set for the show where Sheamus and Jeff Hardy meet in a unique Bar Fight to make SmackDown a must-see show when it airs from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida.

This will come just a few days before Banks squares off against RAW Women's Champion Asuka on this coming Monday night in a match where the fate of the title can be decided via pinfall, submission, count-out, or by outside interference.
Here is more from WWE.com on this situation,
"The Golden Role Models have amassed all the titles, but the controversy hasn't escaped them. Bayley & Sasha Banks continue to stake The Boss' claim to the Raw Women's Championship, but the contentious conclusion to her match against Asuka at The Horror Show at WWE Extreme Rules has created confusion around the title.
"The Women's Tag Team Champions plan to address the blue brand and clear the air on the championship landscape. Bayley & Banks promise to even redefine greatness in the process, as the pair will hold all the gold when they walk into SmackDown."
