On October 25th, 2025, WWE SmackDown took place at the Mullett Arena in Tempe, Arizona, and the show kicked off with a turbulent start. Cody Rhodes, who had a brief backstage talk with Jimmy Uso, was about to speak when Drew McIntyre arrived and berated Rhodes and the fans for supporting his recent actions. The chaos continued as Uso launched a sneak attack on McIntyre, accusing him of being Jacob Fatu's attacker from the previous week.
Later in the night, the new duo of Rey Fenix and Shinsuke Nakamura faced off against Tama Tonga and JC Matteo of the MFT faction. While Fenix and Nakamura combined their different styles, the MFT members ultimately emerged victorious with the help of interference from Solo Sikoa and Talla Tonga.
In a non-title singles match, Tiffany Stratton defeated her opponent Kiana James, who had her client Giulia at ringside. However, the night's biggest surprise came when Jade Cargill, who had arrived to make the save, turned on Stratton and laid a brutal beatdown on the champion, cementing her heel turn.
