Rhodes, Belair, Cena Fuel New WWE SmackDown Rivalries

The latest WWE SmackDown saw Cody Rhodes return for the first time since WrestleMania 41, where he reignited his rivalry with John Cena, culminating in a brawl involving their new tag partners, Jey Uso and Logan Paul. Rhodes and Uso will face Cena and Paul in a high-profile tag team match at Money in the Bank. Bianca Belair made an emotional comeback in Knoxville, Tennessee, addressing her hand injury and a fractured friendship with Naomi, which escalated before Jade Cargill attacked Naomi. Naomi later won a Money in the Bank qualifying triple-threat against Nia Jax and Cargill. JC Mateo made his main roster debut with a win, and the episode included further tag team disputes and interference from the Wyatt Sicks. The show built anticipation for major rivalries and matches at the upcoming Money in the Bank event.
