WWE Breaks New Ground with SmackDown Live from Germany: Countdown to Bash in Berlin

For the first time in history, WWE’s Friday Night SmackDown will be broadcast live from Germany, paving the way for the much-anticipated premium live event, “Bash in Berlin,” set for Saturday.

This landmark episode will take place at the Uber Arena in Berlin, and fans can watch all the action live on the WWE Network Channel (GOtv ch 68) starting at 7 PM on Friday. Here’s a preview of what’s to come:

SmackDown Showdown:
Last Friday, LA Knight successfully defended his United States Championship Title against Santos Escobar. This week, Knight raises the stakes by issuing an open challenge, daring anyone brave enough to seize the moment and challenge him for the title. Who will step up to the plate? Tune in to find out.

Tensions are high as Baron Corbin and Santos Escobar are expected to clash after last week’s backstage confrontation following Escobar’s defeat. Meanwhile, the long-running feud between Andre and Carmelo Hayes will reach a boiling point as they square off in the ring. And after weeks of anticipation, Nia Jax will finally defend her title against her fierce rival, Michin, who crashed her SummerSlam celebrations with a brutal Kendo Stick attack. This is a fight you won’t want to miss.

Bash in Berlin:
The wait is over—WWE’s premium event, “Bash in Berlin,” kicks off this Saturday. Tune in live on GOtv ch 68, with the pre-show build-up starting at 5 pm. In the night’s main event, Randy Orton aims to make history as he challenges World Heavyweight Champion Gunther for a chance to become a sixteen-time world champion. Fighting on home turf, Gunther will have the crowd on his side, but can Orton pull off the ultimate upset?

In another marquee match, Cody Rhodes takes on Kevin Owens for the Undisputed WWE Championship, while CM Punk faces Drew McIntyre in a grudge match that promises to be as personal as it is brutal.
