WWE SmackDown is live from the Mullett Arena in Tempe, Arizona, tonight. This is an important edition, just one week away from Saturday Night's Main Event.
SmackDown ended last week with a cliffhanger: who attacked Jacob Fatu? Fatu was supposed to face Drew McIntyre in the main event to determine the #1 Contender for the WWE Championship. Instead, he was found backstage bleeding from the mouth with several teeth knocked out (rumor is that Fatu recently underwent or will be undergoing dental surgery).
McIntyre tried to persuade General Manager Nick Aldis to crown him as #1 Contender, but Cody Rhodes interrupted and faced Drew instead. Uncharacteristically, Rhodes disqualified himself by hitting McIntyre with the WWE Championship, then raged against him to end last week's show.
Rhodes' actions have fans wondering: Is he responsible for Fatu's attack?
This is all WWE has officially announced in preview for tonight's edition. Other storylines to be on the lookout for:
