This week’s episode of Smackdown Live takes place at the Little Caeser’s Arena in Detroit, Michigan. The Usos vs Sanity vs Rusev and Aiden English has been confirmed for the episode. We will also see more build towards the Hell in a Cell PPV event, which takes place in a few weeks.
We have a potential spoiler to pass your way about the show tonight.
According to a report from Mike Johnson of PWInsider, James Ellsworth is backstage at Smackdown right now.
There is no word yet on if he will be on Smackdown or 205 Live tonight. All we know is that Ellsworth is backstage for the show. Ellsworth was fired from Smackdown by Paige prior to Summerslam.
In the article, Johnson pitched the idea of Ellsworth potentially becoming the new General Manager of 205 Live. This comes with Drake Maverick recently becoming the manager for the Authors of Pain on Monday Night RAW. That is only a pitch from Johnson though and not a definitive plan. Ellsworth as the 205 Live General Manager could be fun though if it happens.
We will let you know if we hear anything more prior to Smackdown starting tonight.
