Cody Rhodes Returns to WWE SmackDown Ahead of Survivor Series

On November 17, WWE SmackDown will air live from the MVP Arena in Albany, New York. The show is set to feature several exciting in-ring events, including the continuation of the 'The Last Time is Now' tournament. Main Event Superstar Jey Uso will battle The Miz, one of John Cena's storied rivals, while LA Knight will face a mystery opponent in the other first-round match.

Ilja Dragunov, the current WWE United States Champion, will once again host an open challenge on SmackDown, looking to defend his title against all comers. Last week, Dragunov defeated Johnny Gargano in a stellar match, and he aims to make the open challenge a regular feature on the blue brand.

In the women's division, the new WWE Women's Champion Jade Cargill will face off against B-Fab, who had a confrontation with Cargill on last week's episode. This match is expected to showcase the growing tensions within the women's roster.

Amidst the in-ring action, Cody Rhodes is advertised to make an appearance on SmackDown. Rhodes, who recently put Drew McIntyre in his rearview, is set to team up with Jey Uso and CM Punk against The Vision at the upcoming WWE Survivor Series WarGames event. Fans are eager to hear what the American Nightmare has to say as he continues his journey in WWE.
