As a precursor to Saturday Night's Main Event, WWE SmackDown will air live from Texas, where several star wrestlers are expected to make an appearance. However, it is unlikely that participants from Saturday Night's Main Event will take an active part in in-ring action, but they will surely play a role in getting the fans to swell up for the PLE.

LA Knight vs Tama Tonga
Looking for revenge, former USA Champion, LA Knight will battle it out with Bloodline 2.0's Tama Tonga, who cost the wrestler a rematch against current title holder Shinsuke Nakamura last week. Tonga has been running free on SmackDown for the past few weeks, along with Jacod Fatu, with Solo Sikoa nowhere to be found.

Motor City Machine vs Pretty Deadly
Ever since losing the tag titles, the Motor City Machine Guns are sweating it out in the middle for a return match. However, the Pretty Deadly duo of Elton Prince and Kit Wilson have been interfering in their business, including MCMG's No.1 contender match last week, which was unsuccessful. The MCMG will want to get done with Pretty Deadly when both tag teams clash in the squared circle.

WWE Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton and Women's US Champion Chelsea Green are also expected to make their presence felt in Austin.
