An eight-woman tag match is set to take place on the final SmackDown before Backlash.
Bayley, Naomi, Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill will team up against Tiffany Stratton & three members of Damage CTRL on tonight's SmackDown in Lyon, France. The announcement of the match was made during this afternoon's Backlash kickoff fan event.
At Backlash, Bayley is defending her WWE Women's Championship against Naomi and Stratton in a triple threat match. That was made official after Stratton interrupted a title bout between Bayley and Naomi on SmackDown two weeks ago.
