Women’s Match Announced For WWE SmackDown This Week

WWE is on the Road to WrestleMania, and you never know what exciting matchups will be made by the creative. It’s undoubtedly an all-hand-on-deck kind of situation right now. Now, WWE has announced a blockbuster match for this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown.

Liv Morgan and Carmella will face off in an inter-promotional match on the February 17th episode of WWE SmackDown. This is not the first time that the two have been in a match together. Most recently, they were on opposite ends of a Six-Woman Tag Team bout on the February 13th episode of Monday Night RAW.

On Thursday, Carmella and Liv Morgan started trading blows on social media. This caused Adam Pearce to make the match official.

BREAKING: Clearly @WWEAsuka and @YaOnlyLivvOnce have unresolved issues lingering from #WWERaw. They will get the chance to resolve them in person tomorrow night on #SmackDown when they go one-on-one in Montreal! It is official.
