WWE is loading up the card for the June 10 episode of WWE SmackDown.
As announced on the June 3 episode, Ricochet will defend the WWE Intercontinental Championship against Gunther. “The Ring General” has been on a dominant run since he arrived on the blue brand. When he crushed Gunther, Ricochet stepped in to help him, but he took a thunderous blow from Gunther for his efforts. The two men have been on a collision course ever since.

Plus, Lacey Evans will return to the blue brand next week. She came back to SmackDown after a lengthy absence on the May 6 episode following several weeks of vignettes. Previously, she hadn’t appeared on WWE TV since February 2021, as she took time off due to her pregnancy and the subsequent birth of her new daughter. Evans was moved over to RAW and set to arrive on the May 30 episode, but she didn’t appear on the show. Now, she’s been shifted back to SmackDown, and she’ll return again next week.
Elsewhere on the show, Max Dupri, the former LA Knight, will reveal his first client for the Maximum Male Models next week. He debuted on the May 2o episode, and his recruitment efforts have apparently paid off.
