WWE SmackDown will be packed for the next two weeks heading into WWE Crown Jewel.
Next week on SmackDown, Roman Reigns will return just eight days away before he wrestles Logan Paul at WWE Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia. Also next week, Ronda Rousey will present an Open Championship Challenge
In a backstage promo, Ronda Rousey said that WWE fans don't want to see the best win, they just want to see their favorites win.
"I didn't come back for them and I don't win for them."
