It's the first official WWE show since Wednesday's purge of talent... though we shouldn't see all that much impact on Friday night's b/c the vast majority of the "future endeavored" were Raw acts... with perhaps the biggest loss on Smackdown being the writer of the Mandy/Otis storyline... a story that will continue to play out tonight as you can tell by this thread's subtitle and the preview down below

Tonight's Smackdown is LIVE from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Fla. b/c rasslers and their TV crews are "essential personnel" now

For the 2nd time in 2 weeks... the Smackdown Tag Team Championship will be on the line in a singles triple threat match (no ladders this time) as The Miz defends the title he shares with John Morrison against Jey Uso & Big E

It's so nice of Sasha Banks to step up and defend her BFF, Smackdown Women's Champion Bayley, by taking on a match tonight against the female wing of the Samoan Dynasty, Tamina... where a win by Tamina puts her in line for a SD Women's Title shot

There will be a pair of Money in the Bank Ladder Match qualifying matches...

men's - Daniel Bryan vs. Cesaro

women's - Dana Brooke vs. Naomi

And Sonya Deville tries to "clear the air" with Mandy Rose about why she sabotaged Mandy's Valentine's Day date with Heavy Machinery's Otis Dozovic

A) Does Sonya feel Otis is "below" Mandy?

B) Does Sonya really believe Dolph would be a better soulmate for Mandy?

C) Does Sonya want Mandy for herself?

(let's be real... option C would be a total Vince move)

and since we're talking about her...

I will try my best here to refrain from going total Poli Board.

This is gonna be good!

Not so much.

Liv and Lana haven't made out yet so I'm not getting my hopes up here.

well... since both the cuts & Lana have been brought up...

it would behoove AEW to sign both Rusev & Aiden English and get the "Rusev Day" band back together as soon as live shows in arenas with audiences are allowed again

Howard Finkel had this note up in his hospital room. He was a true fan to the end.

this is about the only time I'll believe them when they say the situation dictated that kind of booking

Bray can force Cena to do things against his will and make him relive all his various career changes and Bray can appear in two places at once. What kind of "help" is Bray gonna get?

Supposedly Vince has a new edict today. No one is allowed to mention Roman Reigns' name on tv. I guess we'll never get an explanation for why he was off Wrestlemania.

I don't think it was explained on tv. Real life events don't count.
