WWE Smackdown: confirmed matches, segments, PLE betting odds and how to watch in the UK - February 28 2025

• The final WWE Smackdown takes place this evening on Netflix ahead of this weekend’s Elimination Chamber PLE.
• The US championship is on the line as Shinsuke Nakamura takes on former champion LA Knight.
• Plus, Chelsea Green is set for action against a ‘mystery’ opponent, by orders of Smackdown GM, Nick Aldis.

Will there be a final twist on tonight’s episode of WWE Smackdown before the last huge event taking place this weekend before Wrestlemania 41?

While the Road to Wrestlemania started back at the WWE Royal Rumble, we only know of two matches set to take place at the Showcase of the Immortals when it rolls into Las Vegas on April 19 and 20 2025 - Gunther defending his World Heavyweight Championship against men’s Royal Rumble winner Jey Uso, and women’s Royal Rumble winner Charlotte Flair taking on WWE Women’s Champion, Tiffany Stratton.

But for those who manage to survive the hellacious (cheers Jim Ross) Elimination Chamber structure, the spoils for the victor come in the form of challenging Cody Rhodes and Rhea Ripley for their respective world titles at Wrestlemania.

Will we find out if Cody Rhodes has decided to take up The Rock on his offer of becoming ‘his’ champion? Will Charlotte Flair make an appearance as her Trish Stratus is set to appear ahead of tagging up with Tiffany Stratton this weekend?

Here’s your preview for the final WWE Smackdown ahead of the WWE Elimination Chamber PLE, and some last minute betting odds ahead of tomorrow’s event.

WWE Smackdown preview - February 28 2026

Chelsea Green v Mystery Opponent

After a backstage announcement from General Manager Nick Aldis on last week’s episode of WWE SmackDown, it’s been confirmed that Chelsea Green, the Women’s United States Champion, will be in action on Smackdown. What’s intriguing is that her opponent has been kept a mystery by Aldis.

With Green’s aggressive, championship mentality and a potentially unpredictable challenger, this match is sure to bring excitement and drama to the ring.

WWE United States Championship: Shinsuke Nakamura (c) v LA Knight

Shinsuke Nakamura defends his United States Championship against LA Knight in what promises to be a high-stakes showdown.

After earning his spot as the number one contender by defeating The Miz, Knight is out for redemption and looking to reclaim the title. However, their last encounter on SmackDown ended in controversy with a disqualification due to outside interference.

Now, in a highly anticipated rematch, Knight aims to prove he’s worthy of the title. Nakamura, not one to back down, will be looking to continue his dominance and show why he’s the rightful champion.

Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes to Appear

Cody Rhodes, the reigning Undisputed WWE Champion, will be making his presence felt on WWE Raw. After a tumultuous few weeks, fans will be eager to hear what the champion has to say and whether he’ll be addressing any of the latest challenges to his title - or let us know if he’s had any more thoughts on The Rock’s offer…

Rhodes has been in the spotlight since winning the coveted title, and it’s clear his journey is far from over. What will be next for the champion?

Trish Stratus to Appear

The legendary Trish Stratus will also make an appearance on WWE Raw. The Hall of Famer has always been one to stir up drama and ignite passions, whether in the ring or on the microphone. Will she have an announcement or a confrontation in store for the audience ahead of her tag team match with Tiffany Stratton at WWE Elimination Chamber?
