Triple H sends message ahead of major stakes WWE match
WWE Head of Creative Triple H has sent a message to hype up a high-stakes match ahead of the upcoming edition of Friday Night SmackDown. A former champion is set to be in action ahead of the show.

In one of the first-round contests, former Divas Champion Natalya will lock horns with SmackDown Superstar B-Fab. The match will air today at 12 pm ET exclusively on X (FKA Twitter). Ahead of the bout, Triple H took to his X/Twitter account to hype up the tournament match:
"The first round continues as we kick off an action-packed weekend with @NatbyNature vs. @TheVibeBri TODAY on #WWESpeed, 12pm ET / 9am PT exclusively on @X," he wrote.

Triple H praises WWE Superstar on her impressive SmackDown debut
Before competing in the No. 1 contender's tournament for the Women's Speed Championship, B-Fab locked horns with Bayley and Candice LeRae on her SmackDown debut on the November 15 edition of the show.
Although The Role Model won the contest to move one step closer to becoming the inaugural WWE Women's United States Champion, B-Fab received a lot of praise for her impressive performance. After the match, Triple H shared a behind-the-scenes video on X/Twitter while applauding the 34-year-old on her SmacDown debut.
"Last week, @TheVibeBri made a big impact in her #SmackDown debut. All of the hard work continues to pay off. The Women’s United States Championship Tournament continues tonight," he wrote.
Despite the praiseworthy outing, B-Fab failed to secure the win. It will be interesting to see how she fares in the Women's Speed No. 1 Contender's Tournament.
