WWE Friday Night Smackdown: The Gronk Edition
Posted on 3/20/20 at 5:50 pm
Posted on 3/20/20 at 5:50 pm
Once again... WWE Friday Night Smackdown comes from an empty WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Fla.
I wonder if WWE will take any cues from AEW on how to run an empty arena show and make it fun and interesting (answer: no it won't)
Former New England Patriots tight end & newly-minted "host of Wrestlemania XXXVI" Rob Gronkowski will make his 1st appearance in WWE since he helped his good buddy MoJo Rawley win the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal at Wrestlemania XXXIII (which was also in Orlando in 2017)
Roman Reigns & Goldberg will sign the contract for their BLUniversal Championship Match at Wrestlemania... and who will have the contract stuffed in their mouth to notarize it (since that's how that happened Monday night)?
Heavy Machinery takes on the SD Tag Team Champions John Morrison & The Miz in a non-title match
I will give some thought this weekend on how to handle FWL with Wrestlemania now over 2 nights instead of 1... and hope to have a plan laid out in this Monday's MNRT
Will you be watching the replay of Wrestlemania XXX on ESPN Sunday night? Would you like there to be a viewing thread?

More WM news, it is now supposed to take place at multiple locations with the gimmick matches being somewhere other than the PC. The men's and women's battle royals are cancelled. WWE is gonna be taping all the Raws and Smackdowns leading up to WM, and possibly some of WM itself, over the next week.
They released a schedule of matches as well
Saturday, April 4th, 2020
WWE Championship: Brock Lesnar (c) vs. Drew McIntyre
NXT Women’s Championship: Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Charlotte Flair
The Undertaker vs. AJ Styles
Kevin Owens vs. Seth Rollins
Sunday, April 5th, 2020
WWE Universal Championship: Bill Goldberg (c) vs. Roman Reigns
RAW Women’s Championship: Becky Lynch (c) vs. Shayna Baszler
John Cena vs. “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt

this is definitely a key piece of information I'm taking into account for FWL
if even some of Mania's matches are pre-taped... FWL may be nixed fully and the current standings will become the final standings

Its possible the whole show will be taped but it will be just the wrestlers and crew so I think leaks are unlikely.

like I said... I haven't decided yet... I hope to know more by Monday and hope to be able to lay out a format then
ETA: and wrestlers could very well be the leakers themselves so it very well could come out anyway

Pay attention tonight to hear if they say streaming, instead of streaming live, on the network.

well... it's now "too big for 1 night"

Gronk's entrance theme is some club music

It was definitely too big for one night last year.
Posted on 3/20/20 at 7:06 pm to rt3
Supposedly that is a new directive in WWE. To say its too big for one night, instead of streaming live. I would bet Vince even banned saying the word live.

Our King has arrived!!

ummm... MoJo... you know 1st hand that having someone watch your back doesn't exactly work out as planned
