WWE will hit Tulsa, Oklahoma for tonight's episode of SmackDown, but are yet to announce a single match for the second-last show before next week's SummerSlam 2021 pay-per-view.

As things currently stand, the lineup is a complete mystery. Have they even written it yet? Who knows!

All we know about tonight's show is that a handful of major players will be in the house as the road to SummerSlam continues. The only thing WWE has done to promote the show thus far is a 47-second promotional video uploaded to the guts of its website, highlighting a couple of key programs.

John Cena's return to SmackDown to confront Universal Champion Roman Reigns is the most notable thing here. The duo will contest the belt in a likely SummerSlam main event, with Cena effectively stealing the shot by signing his name in Finn Balor's place two weeks ago. The 16-time World Champion worked a dark match last week, teaming with Rey and Dominik Mysterio to defeat Reigns and The Usos.

The video also hypes the Seth Rollins vs. Edge feud. This suggests there'll be more from the duo tonight, with their SummerSlam bout already set.
