SmackDown LIVE preview, June 25, 2019: How will Kofi Kingston respond to Samoa Joe’s attack?

WWE Champion Kofi Kingston was riding high after retaining his title against Dolph Ziggler in a Steel Cage Match at WWE Stomping Grounds and besting Sami Zayn in a non-title bout on Raw. However, Kingston was quickly brought back to reality, as Samoa Joe put his lights out with the Coquina Clutch. How will Kingston respond to The Samoan Submission Machine’s ruthless attack? Find out on SmackDown LIVE, tonight at 8/7 C on USA!

How will Kofi Kingston react to Samoa Joe’s attack?
WWE Champion Kofi Kingston leapt over Dolph Ziggler and out of a steel cage to victory on Sunday at Stomping Grounds, then bested both Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens in consecutive matches on Monday Night Raw. But the champion did not have a moment to rest last night, as Samoa Joe crept up behind him and put Kingston’s lights out with the Coquina Clutch.

How will the WWE Champion react to this shocking sneak attack?

Who will be next to step up to Bayley?
At WWE Stomping Grounds, Bayley turned back the challenge of Alexa Bliss, defeating The Goddess to retain her SmackDown Women’s Championship. When asked who should be next to step up to the plate, The Hugger named just about everyone on the Team Blue roster, from Charlotte Flair to Liv Morgan.

Will any of these women be next in line to challenge Bayley?

Has Bryan & Rowan’s tag team revolution hit a roadblock?
Daniel Bryan & Rowan’s crusade to bring respect to the tag team division took another step forward at Stomping Grounds when they defeated the powerful Heavy Machinery to retain their SmackDown Tag Team Titles. However, their cause may have taken a step back when they were eliminated first in an Eight-Man Elimination Tag Team Match by The New Day, thanks to an inadvertent assist from Raw Tag Team Champions The Revival, who could not get on the same page with Bryan & Rowan.

Can the champions bounce back? Have Xavier Woods & Big E put themselves in position for a future SmackDown Tag Team Title opportunity?

How will Shane-O-Mac & McIntyre react to The Undertaker's return?
Shane McMahon & Drew McIntyre had Roman Reigns on the ropes, set up for a Coast-to-Coast, when their fortunes took a dark turn.

The Undertaker made a shocking appearance on Raw last night, snatching Shane-O-Mac out of the air with a Chokeslam, then staggering McIntyre with a big boot and a flurry of punches. If the surprise arrival of The Deadman wasn’t enough, The Best in The World & The Scottish Psychopath soon learned that they would be facing The Big Dog & The Phenom in a huge tag team battle at Extreme Rules.

What will be the fallout of this stunning turn of events? Find out tonight on SmackDown LIVE at 8/7 C on USA Network!

Looks to be a pretty decent SmackDown following up on the threads left on Raw. Will Joe get his title shot?

Will Shane get another Taker chokeslam? More Revival, Usos, New Day? Yes, please.

It may be unpopular, but I like that these shows can actually flesh out the angles more with two shows.

Yeah, I'm a bit surprised they'd announce it ahead of SmackDown.

They must be worried about SmackDown ratings and think this will help get viewers.

Can't see how it would help much tbh, but I can see how WWE would think it would :ortonout

They have the last few weeks really been good at building up stories, I'll give it that. Bot shows last week really were enjoyable for me as well. Raw was when I woke up and finished it lol. PPV was even good for me. So I'm liking it a bit more and seems to be doing something for me.

Maybe Joe will win the Championship. Guess the brand split is unofficially done, if RAW Wrestlers are getting WWE Title shots.

Kofi you should know by now their are no victory laps as Champion. You're always looking over your Shoulder waiting for the next Challenger coming. Joe is coming and is not playing AROUND!
