WWE Backstage on FS1 will return this Saturday night at 8pm ET, for one night only as a Royal Rumble preview. A replay will air later that night at midnight, and another replay will air at 5pm ET on Royal Rumble Sunday, as a lead-in to the Royal Rumble Kickoff pre-show. The show will be hosted by Renee Paquette (Renee Young), Paige, and WWE Hall of Famer Booker T.

WWE Backstage aired from November 2019 through mid-March of this year after production was stopped due to the COVID-19 pandemic. FOX Sports then announced in June that the show was no longer airing. A special post-SmackDown edition of the show was scheduled to air back on October 23, but it was nixed at the last minute and replaced with an airing of Talking Smack. Saturday’s show will be the first Backstage episode to air since last year.
Stay tuned for more on the Royal Rumble and Saturday’s special edition of WWE Backstage. Below is a new promo for the show:
