Xavier Woods Return & Big Match Set For August 26 SmackDown

WWE

It was reported last night that former SmackDown Tag Team Champion Xavier Woods was slated to return to SmackDown on the August 26 episode of SmackDown.

Woods hasn’t appeared on the show since he was assaulted by the Viking Raiders on the ramp, with Ivar splashing him with a dive off the barricade.

WWE has now officially confirmed that Woods will make his return on tonight’s show, set to address the Viking Funeral for the New Day held on last week’s show.

Also now announced for the show is a big main event, pitting Drew McIntyre against Sami Zayn, just 8 days before McIntyre challenges Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at Clash at the Castle.

Also set for the show is a four-way tag team ‘last chance’ match between Nikki A.S.H and Doudrop, Shotzi and Xia Li, Dana Brooke and Tamina and Natalya and Sonya Deville for a spot in the semi-finals of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship tournament, as well as Ricochet taking on Happy Corbin.
