Friday night's latest "WWE SmackDown" closed with the continuation of the championship feud, as the company gears up for "Money In the Bank" on June 7, when Cena and Rhodes face off in a tag-team match alongside their respective partners Logan Paul and World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso.

SmackDown in Knoxville saw Bianca Belair's homecoming, a Money in the Bank qualifier won by Naomi, and Andrade securing a spot in the men's ladder match. The show also featured wins for J.C. Matteo and Zelina Vega,

Cena and Paul lunged into action, but were outgunned by the former undisputed WWE tag team champions. Uso dove onto Cena before hitting a combination flapjack-Cody Cutter onto Paul. Uso raised his world heavyweight title and Rhodes hoisted Cena's undisputed WWE title as their rivals watched from the ramp.
