Roman Reigns’ Return, Naomi vs. Shayna Baszler Set For 11/5 WWE SmackDown

Get ready to acknowledge “The Tribal Chief” again.

After Roman Reigns was entirely absent from the October 29 episode of WWE SmackDown, the reigning WWE Universal Champion will return to the blue brand on Friday night. In the announcement, WWE teased that Reigns will comment on Brock Lesnar’s indefinite suspension:

The official preview, courtesy of WWE’s website, is as follows:

After taking last week off, Universal Champion Roman Reigns will bring SmackDown back to The Island of Relevancy.

What will The Head of the Table have to say about Brock Lesnar’s suspension?

Find out tonight on SmackDown at 8/7 C on Fox.

Additionally, the company announced that Naomi will take on Shayna Baszler after Sonya Deville helped “The Queen of Spades” pull a fast one on the former SmackDown Women’s Champion last Friday.

WWE Official Sonya Deville has had it out for Naomi since she came to SmackDown, using Shayna Baszler as her own personal muscle to punish Naomi over the last few weeks. Tonight, Naomi has another chance to prove herself when she once again goes toe-to-toe with The Queen of Spades.

Naomi looked to even the score last week against Baszler, but Deville had other plans, inserting herself into the match as the special guest referee. After a quick count gave Baszler the win, Naomi turned on Deville but left herself open to a surprise Kirifuda Clutch.

Can The Glow shine against Baszler, or will Deville find another way to weasel her way into Naomi’s business? Tune in to SmackDown tonight at 8/7 C on Fox to find out!

The updated card is as follows:

  • Roman Reigns returns
  • Naomi vs. Shayna Baszler
