Both matches were scheduled to take place on last Friday's episode. Neither bout happened and no explanation was given.

From WWE:

After LA Knight, Santos Escobar of The LWO and Butch of The Brawling Brutes got into a volatile backstage altercation two weeks ago, the three Superstars battle in a Triple Threat Match in search of a huge win en route to the Money in the Bank Ladder Match.

Damage CTRL’s Bayley is as confident as ever, and to prove that she’s not afraid, she’s putting her spot in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match on the line against the dynamic Shotzi.

Bayley and Shotzi haven’t seen eye to eye, and a recent backstage encounter on SmackDown led to the two agreeing to the massive matchup.

As the only former Money in the Bank winner currently in the match, Bayley believes she has the upper hand heading into the July 1 Premium Live Event, but is she overconfident?

Tune in to SmackDown on Friday on FOX to see this high-stakes match!

Plus, Ridge Holland takes on WWE United States Champion Austin Theory. The bout is a non-title affair.
