WWE Friday Night SmackDown Full Card and Predictions

Singles Match: Jacy Jayne vs. Paige

Jacy Jayne has been a major player in WWE’s women’s division since moving to SmackDown after spending time in NXT. I think having Jayne pick up a victory over a former world champion in Paige would be huge for the young star. Also, Jayne will have Fatal Influence on her side, giving her an advantage.

Jacy Jayne vs. Paige Prediction: Jacy Jayne defeats Paige.

AAA World Cruiserweight Championship Match: Rey Fenix (c) vs. Nathan Frazer

After successfully defending his AAA World cruiserweight title against Axiom on SmackDown two weeks ago, Fenix will now face his tag team partner, Nathan Frazer. Since winning this title at Noche de Los Grandes, Fenix has shown he remains an extremely talented wrestler capable of greatness on any given night.

Rey Fenix vs. Nathan Frazer Prediction: Rey Fenix defeats Nathan Frazer.

Singles Match: Giulia vs. Kiana James

Kiana James was Giulia’s manager for a while but has shown plenty of potential on her own, and this is the moment for WWE to capitalize on it. Giulia and James should put on an excellent match, as the two know each other well. SmackDown has an excellent young core in the women’s division with Tiffany Stratton, Lash Legend, Jacy Jayne, and Kiana James.

Giulia vs. Kiana James Prediction: Kiana James picks up a victory against Giulia.
