3) WWE’s Holiday Schedule
Mike Johnson of PWInsider has provided WWE’s schedule for the Holidays. It turns out that the only taped show will be on Christmas Day.
Here is what Johnson wrote:
Raw will remain live every Monday.
WWE NXT will remain live every Wednesday
Friday Night Smackdown will remain live every Friday with the exception of Christmas week. The Christmas episode of Friday 12/25 episode will be taped on 12/22.
Smackdown on New Year’s Evening 1/1/21 will broadcast live.
My Take:
- I feel like they probably could have pre-taped more of the shows to give Superstars extra time with their families. Still, that means lots of live entertainment for fans over the break, which is hard to complain about as a fan.
2) Update On Lars Sullivan
According to Ringside News, Lars Sullivan is no longer showing up to weekly Smackdown tapings and hasn’t been seen backstage in a while.
Here is what the site wrote:
Ringside News has learned that Lars Sullivan hasn’t been around SmackDown in recent weeks. Obviously, he hasn’t been used, but there are no apparent plans to do so in the immediate future. He hasn’t even been showing up.
We’ve been told that those backstage at SmackDown “have not seen Lars.”
My Take:
- I hate to say it but I don’t miss Lars on my screen. He just doesn’t do it for me.
