WWE SmackDown August 30, 2024 Preview: Confirmed Matches, Start Time and How to Watch

The August 30th episode of Friday Night SmackDown promises to be a thrilling continuation of the storylines that have kept fans on the edge of their seats. Taking place at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Berlin, Germany, this week’s show will air in its usual 8 PM ET slot on FOX in the United States. As the build towards Bash in Berlin intensifies, here’s what fans can expect from tonight’s action-packed episode.

Andrade vs. Carmelo Hayes Feud Continues

The heated rivalry between Andrade and Carmelo Hayes has been one of the most talked-about storylines on SmackDown. After Andrade initially defeated Hayes, the latter evened the score by winning their rematch the following week. Last week, Andrade interrupted a promo by Hayes, laying down a challenge that is likely to culminate in a match on tonight’s show. Fans can expect these two to leave it all in the ring as they battle for supremacy.

Baron Corbin vs. Santos Escobar

Last week, Baron Corbin made waves by mocking Santos Escobar after his loss to LA Knight in a title match. Escobar, unwilling to let Corbin’s taunts slide, requested a singles match against him for this week’s episode. The match is set to be an intense showdown as Escobar looks to redeem himself and shut down Corbin’s disrespect.

LA Knight’s Open Challenge for the United States Championship

LA Knight, fresh off his first successful United States Championship defense against Santos Escobar, has issued an open challenge for the title this week in Berlin. While the challenger remains a mystery, Knight is expected to rise to the occasion and retain his championship, continuing his strong run as the US Champion.

Nia Jax vs. Michin in a Street Fight for the WWE Women’s Championship

In what is sure to be one of the highlights of the night, Nia Jax is set to defend her WWE Women’s Championship against Michin in a Street Fight. This match promises to be a brutal, no-holds-barred contest, with both women likely to push their limits in pursuit of victory. Given the stipulation, fans can anticipate a highly competitive and hard-hitting affair.

With the excitement building towards Bash in Berlin, tonight’s SmackDown is poised to deliver unforgettable moments and set the stage for even greater drama in the weeks to come.
