WWE has announced they are moving the location of its planned Oct. 1 SmackDown taping.
The company initially scheduled a SmackDown taping on Oct. 1 for New Orleans. The event was going to be held inside the Smoothie King Center. WWE has revealed a change in plans.
“STAMFORD, Conn., August 30, 2021 – The WWE Friday Night SmackDown live event scheduled for October 1 at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans has been postponed. All original tickets will be honored for the new 2022 date.
Friday Night SmackDown on October 1 will now take place at Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore.
Additional ticket information on both events is forthcoming.”
WWE made the change due to Hurricane Ida.
WWE has been enjoying the ability to return to live crowds. The promotion created the ThunderDome in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Outside of WrestleMania 37, the company wasn’t running events in front of a live audience for over a year. That changed in July when SmackDown was held live inside the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.
Time will tell when the company will return to the Smoothie King Center but for now, the live SmackDown action comes to the Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore, Maryland.
