Settle in for one of the final episodes of WWE SmackDown before WrestleMania 40.

Tonight's episode of the blue brand emanates from the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT. It will be the second-to-last episode of SmackDown prior to "The Showcase of The Immortals." Fans are in for a loaded show with WrestleMania XL implications.

We will see Jade Cargill, who recently made her signing to the Friday night show official. Cargill dazzled fans with her performance in the women's Royal Rumble match earlier this year. What will Jade have to say after putting pen to paper for Nick Aldis' brand?

The Street Profits vs. Austin Theory and Grayson Waller, as well as New Catch Republic vs. Legado Del Phantasma will determine the final participants in the title match.

Plus, after getting involved in Damage CTRL's business last week, Bianca Belair finds herself in a singles match against Dakota Kai, who will have her stablemates by her side. Will the "EST" get some backup?

Randy Orton and Kevin Owens will be enemies at WrestleMania XL, challenging for Logan Paul's WWE United States Championship in the Triple Threat Match. With that said, they will be partners tonight. "The Viper" and KO will team up to take on Pretty Deadly.
