WWE announced they'd be beefing SmackDown up from two to three hours right before 2024 turned into 2025, but that won't be a permanent thing. In fact, the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter says Triple H will revert blue brand business back to its traditional two hour runtime shortly after WrestleMania 41.

Also set for tonight, new WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton will appear. Stratton will address her betrayal of Nia Jax from last week when she finally cashed in the Money in the Bank briefcase to become champion. The cash-in happened after Stratton helped Jax defeat Naomi in last week’s main event.

Tiffany Stratton puts the women’s championship on the line for the very first time against Bayley, who won a Fatal 4-Way for the right to challenge her.
