The final episode of "WWE SmackDown" before "Money in the Bank 2025" airs live on Friday.
It's a significant show, as every participant in the men's and women's MITB ladder matches will appear. That includes members of the "Monday Night Raw" roster. There will also be a big six-woman tag team match and one match that was announced just before the "SmackDown" airing.
WWE has announced a major singles match for Friday's show. It'll be Jimmy Uso going one-on-one with JC Mateo.
Another new match addition will feature one of the men's MITB competitors, LA Knight. "The Megastar" will go one-on-one with Aleister Black in singles action. Black had a triple threat MITB qualifier won, but Knight threw him out of the ring and pinned Shinsuke Nakamura.
