WWE SmackDown features multiple championship changes in Boston

The August 14, 2026, episode of WWE SmackDown, held at the TD Garden in Boston, featured significant championship changes and storyline developments. Jacy Jayne defeated Tiffany Stratton to become the new Women's United States Champion. In a Triple Threat Match, The MFTs (Tama Tonga and Talla Tonga) secured the WWE Tag Team Championship from Damian Priest and R-Truth, defeating also the War Raiders.

Following the tag team title win, Tama Tonga declared their team ‘undeniable’. Shinsuke Nakamura subsequently issued a warning to the new champions, teasing the imminent arrival of a partner described as a ‘Ticking Time Bomb’ to unleash chaos.

Other notable developments included Blake Monroe being booked for her SmackDown in-ring debut against Giulia. Additionally, reports suggest WWE may consider returning SmackDown to a three-hour format in January 2027, following its recent transition back to a two-hour broadcast in July.
