This week's SmackDown put a heavy emphasis on the women's division, with three out of the four scheduled matches featuring the division.

Italian climber Pietro Vidi has just made the second ascent of Drifter’s Escape 5.15a (9a+) trad in Squamish. The route was established by Connor Herson in July 2025 after two seasons of effort. Herson proposed a grade of 5.15a, and Vidi has confirmed that proposal. This makes Drifter’s Escape the world’s first trad climb with a confirmed grade of 5.15a. Vidi sent it in 15 sessions and 10 lead attempts. “The line is absolutely gorgeous, following two gently overhanging, parallel cracks towering above the city, offering some of the sickest grips around,” said Vidi. “The process was a pretty tough one. It’s been a while since I’ve put this many sessions into a project, and as usual, I got totally obsessed. This time was especially all-consuming. It felt like the Drifter was watching me from every angle of town. Everywhere I went, I could see the Chief and that curving white panel staring back at me.”

Kris Jenner allegedly “flipped out on camera” after finding out her past affair is included in a new biography about her daughter, Kim Kardashian. “Citizen Kim: The Woman Who Created the Future” author Jonathan Van Meter, who has extensively spent time with the reality-famous clan, said in a new interview that Kardashian had called him “late at night” a few months ago.
