Last week, Renee Young appeared in a video hyping up the debut of WWE Backstage on FS1. She noted that there was to be a big special guest lined up for the show as well who would be dropping some big news. The name of the guest was supposed to be announced on Smackdown this week but it never happened.
According to a report from Wrestling Observer Radio, the special guest would have been either or both of Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman and the big news would have been that he is quitting Smackdown and headed to RAW. Due to the travel delays in Saudi Arabia, Lesnar appeared on Smackdown and gave away the news then instead.
“The Lesnar and Heyman thing where Lesnar goes to RAW, that was scheduled, but it was scheduled to be done on Tuesday to kick off the new Backstage weekly show at 11 o’clock,” Dave Meltzer said.
Renee Young sent out the following to hype the big announcement on the debut show.
“And for our very first guest: huge news! It’s going to be announced on Friday Night SmackDown. It’s a very big deal, I promise you don’t want to miss it. See you guys on Tuesday!”
