WWE has announced two new matches for this week’s episode of SmackDown Live in Indianapolis, IN at the Bankers Life Fieldhouse. First up is the in-ring return of The Big Show as he battles Randy Orton in a singles match. Also, Jeff Hardy vs. Samoa Joe has been booked. WWE sent out the following on this World Cup Qualifying Match:
Jeff Hardy is back and has his eyes set on the WWE World Cup at WWE Crown Jewel … but his Qualifying Match will be anything but a tune-up as he squares off against a none-too-pleased Samoa Joe.
The Charismatic Enigma will be looking to make a declarative statement to the WWE Universe as he competes in his first match since the scary incident that saw him land hard through a table and have to be stretchered out at WWE Hell in a Cell. The Samoan Submission Machine will also be aiming to reset and move forward after his (literally) brutal defeat to AJ Styles in the WWE Title Match at WWE Super Show-Down.
Which Superstar will begin to carve out a new path towards potential WWE World Cup glory? Find out this Tuesday night!
