Key Storylines
This weekend in Chicago, we’ll be treated to the second installment of the PBR Monster Energy Team Challenge, presented by Camping World, as the Carolina Cowboys and Nashville Stampede face off in the Smoky Mountain Showdown. Both teams have lost some key players this offseason, so it’s a very different matchup than in 2024. On the individual side, Joao Ricardo Vieira will have his 1,000th premier series out, which is the fifth-most all-time. But keep an eye on the rookies as well, as the likes of Hudson Bolton, Vinicius Pinheiro Correa and Anderson de Oliveira are a combined 54-for-123 (43.9%) so far this season.
