WWE teases a championship change for tonight's episode of SmackDown

What will happen with Asuka tonight on WWE SmackDown?

WWE has announced an interesting segment for RAW Women's Champion Asuka for tonight's episode of SmackDown.

Asuka defeated Bianca Belair at WWE Night of Champions to win the RAW Women's Championship for the third time. But it appears that title might get getting a change later on tonight.

WWE took to social media this afternoon to announce that there will be a WWE Women's Championship Presentation for The Empress of Tomorrow tonight, tweeting out:

"TONIGHT on #SmackDown A WWE Women's Championship Presentation! *TV emoji* 8/7c on @FOXTV," WWE said in a tweet.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

As of this writing, WWE hasn't elaborated on what this presentation will consist of, but many believe it could be a new name and redesign of the RAW Women's Championship. For more on that, click here.

Will Jey Uso make an important decision tonight on SmackDown?

During the close of SmackDown last week, Solo Sikoa turned on Jimmy Uso and showed his allegiance to Roman Reigns.

The Tribal Chief ended the show by proclaiming to Paul Heyman that Jey Uso would fall in line. Now Paul Heyman has pretty much issued an ultimatum to Main Event Uso for later tonight.

Will Jey stand with his brother Jimmy? Or will he fall in line with The Bloodline? We'll find out soon enough.

Here is everything announced tonight so far for tonight's episode of SmackDown:

  • A WWE Women's Championship presentation for Asuka
  • Will Jey Uso fall in line with Roman Reigns and The Bloodline?
  • Bayley vs. Mia Yim in a Women's Money in the Bank qualifying match
  • Mustafa Ali vs. Santos Escobar in a Men's Money in the Bank qualifying match
  • IYO SKY vs. Shotzi in a Women's Money in the Bank qualifying match
  • Butch vs. Baron Corbin in a Men's Money in the Bank qualifying match
