WWE SmackDown: Spoiler-Free Preview for September 26

Days after Night of Champions ended, the Sept. 26 edition of WWE SmackDown continues the theme of champions and challengers.

Both the tag team titles and Intercontinental Championship will be featured on the show. Stardust and Goldust face the men they dethroned. In addition, the top contender to Dolph Ziggler's championship will be decided.

The Verizon Arena in Little Rock, Arkansas, already hosted all that action, but it won't air on Syfy until Friday at 8 p.m. ET.

To discover the winners and losers early, one simply has to type "SmackDown spoilers" into a search engine. For those wishing to wait to see the victories unfold on TV, the following is a preview of all the matches on the docket.

Dean Ambrose vs. The Miz

Thanks to Ambrose, The Miz ended his MizTV segment on Tuesday's Main Event out cold, slumped in his director's chair. Ambrose, his guest for the night, headbutted him and drove his face to the mat with Dirty Deeds.

As you might expect, The Miz wants a bit of payback. He'll get his chance to avenge the attack on Friday's SmackDown. 

The Miz has had quite the up-and-down week. After defeating Dolph Ziggler for the Intercontinental Championship on Sunday's Night of Champions, he lost the title just one day later on Raw.

He can end the week with a big victory, but a rage-filled foe stands in his way. Ambrose made a memorable return from his movie-shooting hiatus at Night of Champions and jumped back into making his case as a future headliner.

Seeing these two men with such contrasting styles and characters should be fun. Damien Sandow, who has been nailing his role as Miz's stunt double, promises to be worth watching as well.

Entrants: Fernando, Diego, Jack Swagger, Kofi Kingston, Big E, Bo Dallas, Cesaro, Zack Ryder, Damien Sandow, Heath Slater, Titus O'Neil, Xavier Woods, Justin Gabriel

Ziggler won't have to wait long to see who his next challenger is. After snatching the IC title from Miz on Monday's Raw, he can sit back and watch over a dozen men claw at each other.

Booking this match is likely a sign that Ziggler is done with his feud with The Miz. 

As for who he takes on next, there are a number of intriguing options here. Sandow, Miz's stunt double, could try to do what The Miz failed to. Cesaro is coming off a fantastic showing at Night of Champions and would no doubt deliver opposite the champ.

Dallas has been sputtering as of late. A few bouts with The Showoff would be a surefire way to get the best out of him in the ring.

It will be noteworthy how Woods, Big E and Kingston interact here. WWE has teased the formation of a faction featuring that trio but has seemingly abandoned it. Will they work as a unit, show a heelish side or simply go back to being what they were before?

The Usos vs. Goldust and Stardust (Tag Team Championship)

Monday's Raw saw a title change hands just after new champs were crowned. Will that happen again here?

Their last title bout was fast-paced and a good blend of high-flying and in-ring drama.

Their animosity should be even higher at this point. With the addition of high stakes again, this should lead to a engaging contest.

Layla and Summer Rae vs. Rosa Mendes and Natalya

The Total Divas crossover continues.

Natalya and Summer Rae's beef on the reality show bled over onto Monday's Raw. Even with the show being taped well in advance, WWE tried to work those storylines into a current feud between them.

Their battle that night was short with a few bursts of excitement.

Expectations will be lowered this time around. Adding Rosa to the mix can only hurt the match quality. She's awkward and unimpressive in the ring.

The more of Natalya this clash features, the better.

Big Show vs. Rusev

SmackDown has been a showcase for Rusev as of late. He's twice faced Roman Reigns in the show's main and now gets a crack at a giant. 

Rusev left Mark Henry wincing at both Night of Champions and on Monday's Raw. 

It appears that he is done tangling with The World's Strongest Man. Henry's tag team partner is next up to bat.

Besides the hard-hitting action that is sure to ensue here, this will be intriguing as it will let the audience know if Rusev is headed for a full-fledged rivalry with Big Show. If so, it would mark the third straight former world champ he has feuded with.

This collision could just be the first of many.

It will cap off a night that on paper has the potential to be better than this week's Raw. Contenders pursue gold, The Miz seeks revenge, and Rusev is assigned a prominent spot once more.
