5 things you need to know before tonight's SmackDown Live

Styles Vs Almas. Will Joe strike?

Styles and Almas will face off tonight, but an appearance of Samoa Joe may throw off the WWE Champion.

AJ Styles is still the WWE Champion, by the very skin of his teeth. At the pay per view, Styles seemingly tapped out, at the same time Joe's shoulders were pinned to the mat.

This isn't the first time we've seen a Styles title match ended with controversy, with his double count out against Shinsuke Nakamura still fresh with fans.

Tonight though, Styles will face Andrade 'Cien' Almas, with the Georgian having to look out for Zelina Vega.

However, with Paige promising a rematch between Joe and Styles at WWE Super Show-Down, expect the Samoan Submission machine to make his presence known in tonight's main event, before his big return match next month in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
