WWE SmackDown Preview – Aug. 14, 2026
This week’s episode of SmackDown is loaded with three title matches. Baron Corbin will look to retain his United States Title for the second straight week against Carmelo Hayes.
The former U.S. champion attacked Corbin last week following his successful title defense over Trick Williams.
Jacy Jayne gets a chance to add another gold to Fatal Influence. She faces Tiffany Stratton for the Women’s United States Championship.
Jayne has the numbers advantage with Fallon Henley and Lainey Reid on her side, while Chelsea Green could be out as she recovers from a broken orbital suffered last week against Fatal Influence.
Damian Priest and R-Truth have their hands full against The War Raiders and The Tongans. Erik and Ivar are looking to add more gold to their AAA World Tag Team Championship, while Tama and Talla Tonga got their mean streak back after Haku decided to take over as their manager.
Things were a little civil between CM Punk and Kevin Owens, as well as Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton, last week on SmackDown.
With Punk and Owens set to face each other next week in Toronto, it would not be surprising if they finally come to blows after years of bad blood.
The same can be said between Rhodes and Orton, especially with unfinished business at WrestleMania 42 and SummerSlam.
