The company announced on last night's episode of SmackDown that Carmella will challenge Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women's Title on the pay-per-view. This is 'Mella's second crack at the belt since Banks became champion - she previously lost by submission at TLC late-last year.

Below is the full, updated line up for this weekend's show.

That's six bouts in total, but WWE might not stop there. The promotion might tack on a United States Title showdown between reigning champ Bobby Lashley and Riddle, or add in a last-minute Intercontinental Title defence for Big E.

There's also always a chance that Carmella will rock up as an entrant in the 30-women Rumble if she loses to Sasha again. Alternatively, maybe Banks will drop the title and enter the match herself.
