-WWE Friday Night Smackdown was taped yesterday (along with next week’s show) in Orlando, Florida at the WWE Performance Center. Tonight’s show includes AJ Styles vs. Drew Gulak for the Intercontinental Championship. Join me for my weekly live review as Smackdown airs on Fox tonight at 7CT/8ET. Dot Net Members will hear my audio review later tonight.

-WWE 205 Live will stream on WWE Network tonight at 9CT/10ET. Anish V’s weekly written and audio reviews are available by Saturday mornings.

-The next live event listed on the WWE website is July 12 in Rockford, Illinois at the BMO Harris Bank Center, but the event has been officially postponed by the venue.
