Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s coverage of "WWE SmackDown" on October 31, 2025, coming to you from the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah!
Happy Halloween! On the eve of Saturday Night's Main Event, Undisputed WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre will have a contract signing to make their match official.
Last week, not only did Jade Cargill return, but she shockingly turned on Women's Champion, Tiffany Stratton. Tonight, she'll address the WWE Universe about her actions.
Last Friday, Nia Jax confronted her former friend, Alexa Bliss. She told her & Charlotte Flair that she was waiting for them to turn on each other and lose the titles. Bliss did take kindly to this assertion and will face off against Jax tonight.
Kit Wilson accused Carmelo Hayes of giving off vibes of toxic masculinity, following being jumped by The Miz. The attack left Hayes unable to face the then-Men's U.S. Champion, Sami Zayn for the title. Wilson and Hayes will go one-on-one tonight.
Two weeks ago, Ilja Dragunov shocked everyone when he defeated Zayn for his title the night of his return. Last week, he defeated Aleister Black in an open challenge. He'll put his title on the line again tonight in another open challenge.
Tiffany Stratton stomped into the ring and demanded Jade Cargill come to the ring. Nick Aldis came to the ring and said he wouldn't let anything jeopardize tomorrow's match. Cargill's music hit and Aldis told them they can't get physical and called for security. Cargill said it was not necessary. She wants her title. Stratton tried to get physical, but security backed her off. She got back in the ring and held her title in the air.
Ilja Dragunov makes his way to the ring.
