Spoiler: Opening Segment Revealed for April 24 WWE SmackDown

Plans for tonight’s WWE SmackDown call for Jacob Fatu to be featured in the opening segment of the April 24 episode.

Fatu is currently scheduled to open the show from Dickies Arena, following his confrontation with Roman Reigns on WWE Raw earlier this week. During that segment, Reigns gave Fatu one week to think about his response, leaving fans waiting to see what he’ll say next.

As always, WWE plans can shift at any time, so the opening segment is always subject to change before the show goes live.

Confirmed for WWE SmackDown — April 24, 2026:

• Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes appearance
• WWE Women’s United States Championship
  Giulia (c) vs. Tiffany Stratton
• World Tag Team Championship
  R-Truth & Damian Priest (c) vs. JC Cobb & Tama Tonga
• Rhea Ripley appearance
• Trick Williams appearance
• Jacob Fatu appearance
• Paige appearance
• Trick Williams United States Title celebration with Lil Yachty

With Jacob Fatu currently slotted into the opening segment, tonight’s SmackDown could provide the next major step in his situation with Roman Reigns, depending on what he decides to do next.
