Bianca Belair’s Return Announced by WWE

Bianca Belair returns to WWE SmackDown in Knoxville (May 30), plus John Cena & MITB qualifiers.

WWE has slated the return of Bianca Belair for the May 30, 2025, episode of SmackDown, which will emanate from her hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee, and will also feature an appearance by Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena alongside final Money in the Bank qualifying contests.

Bianca Belair’s upcoming return was revealed through a vignette aired during the May 23 SmackDown broadcast, where she discussed the broken fingers that have kept her sidelined since WrestleMania 41. The segment concluded by confirming her appearance in Knoxville.

In addition to Belair, Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena is also scheduled to be present on the May 30 edition of SmackDown.

The May 30 show will further shape the Money in the Bank ladder matches. Two final qualifying contests are scheduled: Jacob Fatu, Carmelo Hayes, and Andrade will compete in a triple threat match for the last remaining spot on the men’s side.

Similarly, the final entrant in the women’s Money in the Bank ladder match will be determined when Nia Jax, Naomi, and Jade Cargill face off in another triple threat encounter.
