WWE will celebrate a new episode of Friday Night SmackDown tonight from the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois. The show will feature several segments and matches of interest, highlighting John Cena's last appearance on the blue brand before his retirement as a professional wrestler. Additionally, CM Punk will also be present in an event that could be full of surprises.

Furthermore, a championship will be on the line tonight. This has just been confirmed by WWE through its social media. Giulia will defend the United States Women's Title against Michin in what will be the second defense of "The Beautiful Madness" in her first reign on the company's main roster.

The match comes after Michin defeated Kiana James in just a few seconds on the blue brand show held in Lyon last week. It is worth noting that James had previously informed Michin that she would have to defeat her first if she wanted a title opportunity. After that squash, Giulia brutally attacked Michin, stomping her on the metal ring stairs. Tonight, Michin will have the opportunity not only to seek revenge but also to win her first gold in WWE.

Additionally, Aleister Black and Damian Priest will face off in what will be the culmination of a story that has pitted both men against each other in recent weeks. After causing chaos in the most recent episodes of the blue brand, Priest and Black are ready to unleash their violence in what promises to be one of the matches of the night.
