It’s not clear if it’ll be a simple segment or a heated face-off, but one thing’s sure – the crowd will go wild.

Bianca Belair returns to action on SmackDown

Bianca is officially returning this week, and fans can’t wait. Her return might shake things up on the Blue Brand. Whether she interferes in the women’s match or starts a new rivalry, her presence will change the game heading into Money in the Bank.

MITB qualifiers: Two triple threat matches confirmed
