WWE SmackDown at Toyota Arena (Oct. 23, 2026): Chelsea Green vs Roxanne Perez headlines as Giulia and Blake Monroe meet in Street Fight

WWE SmackDown aired on October 23, 2026 at the Toyota Arena in Ontario, California, featuring a WWE Women’s Championship defence as Chelsea Green faced Roxanne Perez and a Street Fight between Giulia and Blake Monroe among other matches.
The October 23 episode was presented as part of SmackDown’s build to Crown Jewel 2026 and followed the October 16 show, where Randy Orton intervened during Cody Rhodes’ match against Baron Corbin. Chelsea Green, who is scheduled to meet Liv Morgan for the Women’s Jewel Crown Jewel title, defended the WWE Women’s Championship against Roxanne Perez on this Friday’s program; the show also included a WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship defence and a World Tag Team Championship dark match.
Alexa Bliss and Tatum Paxley put the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship on the line against Michin and B-Fab after capturing the titles by replacing Charlotte Flair in the contest against Fatal Influence. The pairing’s first defence was billed as a test of the new partnership, with Michin and B-Fab expected to use teamwork and aggression to unsettle the champions and Bliss and Paxley carrying momentum from their recent title victory.
Giulia and Blake Monroe met in a Street Fight after Monroe previously defeated Giulia using mind games and underhanded tactics. General Manager Nick Aldis declared the rematch a no-disqualification contest, removing the usual restrictions and allowing both competitors to use the environment and weapons during the bout.
Tag-team action on the card featured The MFTs, represented by Tama Tonga and Talla Tonga, against Bakusai’s Shinsuke Nakamura and Kyoki. The matchup was described as a clash of styles, with The MFTs’ physical approach set against Nakamura’s experience and striking ability, and a victory framed as useful momentum for either team within the tag-team picture.
A World Tag Team Championship match scheduled as a dark match saw Bron Breakker and Austin Theory (c) defend their titles against LA Knight and Solo Sikoa. Breakker and Theory were identified as representing The Vision faction, and the bout was noted as taking place outside the main televised card while still adding to the evening’s activity.
The October 23 episode advanced multiple storylines ahead of Crown Jewel 2026, with Chelsea Green’s SmackDown title defence and the programmed rematches and tag contests intended to shape the build toward the event where Green is set to face Liv Morgan for the Women’s Jewel Crown Jewel title.
