WWE has officially confirmed two matches for the September 25th, 2020 episode of Smackdown. This will be the go-home show for the Clash of Champions PPV.
The first match that was announced was Jeff Hardy vs Sami Zayn. Here is what WWE wrote about it on their website:
Jeff Hardy and Sami Zayn to go head-to-head before WWE Clash of Champions
Before they share the ring with AJ Styles at WWE Clash of Champions, Intercontinental Champion Jeff Hardy and Sami Zayn will face off in a non-title match on Friday Night SmackDown.Controversy continued to find Zayn last week on the blue brand, as The Great Liberator’s pin was called off due to him grasping Styles’ tights during the maneuver. The Phenomenal One capitalized on the distracted Zayn and secured a roll-up win of his own. The chaotic situation surrounding the Intercontinental Title continued, as The Charismatic Enigma then entered to attack both competitors and lay down a challenge for the pay-per-view event.
Who will leave the blue brand with the upper hand before the Intercontinental Championship Triple Threat Winner Take All Ladder Match on Sunday?
WWE has also announced Lacey Evans vs Alexa Bliss. Here is what they wrote on their website about the match:
Alexa Bliss to take on Lacey Evans after last week’s Sister Abigail attack
Alexa Bliss will battle Lacey Evans on Friday Night SmackDown following Bliss’ shocking Sister Abigail attack on The Sassy Southern Belle last week.The Fiend continues to have some sort of hold over Bliss, as the energetic Superstar has snapped into a trance multiple times in recent weeks. After falling to Nikki Cross, Evans uttered The Fiend’s name, and Bliss once again fell into a hypnosis-like state before dishing out the Sister Abigail.
Will Bliss be able to stay focused on the match? Or will a stronger force pull her in another direction?
