Rhea Ripley will face Raquel Rodriguez in a Street Fight that appears likely to incorporate elements from the Judgment Day storyline. It also has potential to mirror the female counterpart of the underappreciated WrestleMania 41 classic bout between Drew McIntyre and Damian Priest.

Don’t overlook this match. Both women are expected to deliver a standout performance. With Liv Morgan sidelined due to injury, this could serve as another chance for Rodriguez to reestablish herself as a singles competitor.

Additionally, Karrion Kross is set for his first singles match on a Premium Live Event since 2022, when he faced McIntyre inside a steel cage at Crown Jewel.

Kross has been steadily gaining traction and is finally receiving some main-event attention, capitalizing on the eerie, charismatic persona he’s showcased since WrestleMania season.

If WWE intends to elevate him with a mid-year push, this match could mark the beginning of something significant—especially opposite a performer like Zayn, who excels at turning matches into unforgettable moments. Zayn is at a stage where his character could use a spark. Perhaps Kross can provide it.

With these two matches now confirmed, the NOC lineup is as follows:

• WWE Championship: John Cena (c) vs. CM Punk
• King of the Ring Tournament Final: Randy Orton vs. Cody Rhodes
• Queen of the Ring Tournament Final: Asuka vs. Jade Cargill
• United States Championship: Jacob Fatu (c) vs. Solo Sikoa
• Street Fight: Rhea Ripley vs. Raquel Rodriguez
• Sami Zayn vs. Karrion Kross

That makes for a solid six-match slate, though it wouldn’t be surprising if another contest was added. Originally, there was supposed to be an Intercontinental Championship match featuring Dominik Mysterio defending against AJ Styles.

Mysterio sustained a rib injury but isn't expected to be out for long, so it seems unlikely that he’ll lose the title. However, one must wonder if WWE will step in and add another championship match to further emphasize the title theme of the event.

This Friday’s edition of SmackDown will also take place in Riyadh, so it's possible we’ll see major developments unfold on the show. That said, it will air on delay in the U.S., meaning WWE may treat it more like a traditional go-home show leading into NOC.

It’s definitely a show worth watching, as WWE tends to make the entire weekend feel momentous during these special events. At the moment, there are no tag team matches scheduled, making it a prime opportunity for one to be added during SmackDown.

There have also been rumors circulating for weeks regarding a potential involvement from Logan Paul, and if it doesn’t materialize here, he could be slotted into a SummerSlam storyline instead. Either way, don’t be surprised if SmackDown delivers a surprise or two.

Stay tuned for all coverage related to NOC, including the SmackDown go-home show and the PLE itself on Saturday.
