WWE is presenting the first SmackDown after WrestleMania 39, and the blue brand could have a lot of surprises in store for fans. If anything, they will be able to produce the show without Vince McMahon around, so you know that they won’t be forced to change the show in the middle of the night. Let’s see what they have in store, and this should serve as your official spoiler warning.
Sean Sapp noted tonight’s lineup for SmackDown tonight behind Fightful’s paywall. It appears that they have quite a show in store for fans in the aftermath of WrestleMania 39.
– Sheamus & Brawling Brutes vs. Gunther & Imperium

It was also noted that fans in Portland will also see Tegan Nox vs. Sonya Deville as the dark match before the show. Also, Dolph Ziggler vs Austin Theory is going down after the show goes off the air as a dark match.
