WWE has announced the next special on the WWE Network, which is titled, Smackville.
On Thursday, WWE released details on this special that will air live on their streaming service at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee on Saturday, July 27.
The event was previously scheduled as just being a house show but some matches at the show will be turned into a network special.
Speaking of matches, the company has announced two matches including the main event of this special. The evening will also feature a special musical performance by Elias.
First up is newly crowned Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura going head-to-head with former titleholder Finn Balor in a rematch.

Regarding the other match, Nakamura just beat Balor for the Intercontinental Title at Extreme Rules.
