WWE planning to film SmackDown in secret behind closed doors location this week after WrestleMania 36
WWE are reportedly planning to film SmackDown in a secret behind closed doors location this week after WrestleMania 36.
Vince McMahon was forced to move production of the Showcase of the Immortals from Raymond James Stadium in Tampa to the company's Performance Center due to the coronavirus pandemic.
WWE have filmed both nights of the Show of Shows as well as the RAW after Mania at their training facility.
Yet plans to tape SmackDown at the Performance Center were nixed when Florida Governor Ron DeSantis ordered a statewide lockdown until April 30.
Yet according to highly respected wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer, WWE is still set to film Friday's episode of the Blue brand this week.
He told the Wrestling Observer Radio that McMahon's company are trying to keep the location of the tapings secret, although it is said to be held in a shutdown state.
This year's WrestleMania took place over two nights for the first time in history and was filmed at the WWE Performance Center due to the coronavirus pandemic.
