As noted, this week’s SmackDown was originally scheduled for the Little Caesar’s Arena in Detroit, Michigan, but the event was nixed due to the coronavirus pandemic. WWE then decided to move this week’s blue brand show to the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida, where they aired this week’s WWE NXT episode from due to Full Sail University needing the NXT Arena (Full Sail Live) for a previously scheduled school event.
Below is the current line-up for Friday’s SmackDown:
* Jeff Hardy makes his long-awaited return
* The retired Paige returns to confront SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley
* John Cena returns to address “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt ahead of WrestleMania 36
