The WWE will have a prime warmup event for Saturday’s Money in the Bank premium show in New Orleans, with a Friday Night SmackDown slated for the Cajundome in nearby Lafayette. Tonight’s edition of SmackDown is scheduled to start at 8 p.

WWE SmackDown once again ended in chaos as The Vision interfered in the main event of the October 9 episode. Their attack stopped Bron Breakker and Trick Williams from finishing their match. The match was set up earlier in the night when Trick Williams approached SmackDown GM Nick Aldis and asked for a fight.

WWE uploaded three videos following Friday’s show. One featured R-Truth cutting a promo on Damien Priest after the two got into an altercation. Truth said he’s the funny guy that makes everyone laugh, but when people go low, he goes lower, he doesn’t believe in taking the higher ground. He promised to hurt Priest in their match next week.
