While it took a lot to figure out from a logistic standpoint, WWE returns with Friday Night SmackDown on FOX from an empty WWE Performance Center arena in Orlando, Florida with a stacked show featuring the returns of Jeff Hardy, John Cena and Paige, as the Road to WrestleMania 36 continues tonight.
WWE.com released the following preview for tonight’s show:
Friday Night SmackDown preview, March 13, 2020: Jeff Hardy set to return on Friday Night SmackDown
Friday Night SmackDown proceeds with no live audience from Orlando. The returns of Jeff Hardy, John Cena and Paige highlight the action on FOX at 8/7 C.
Jeff Hardy set to return on Friday Night SmackDown
After being away from the squared circle for nearly a year, Jeff Hardy is set to return on Friday Night SmackDown.
The Charismatic Enigma has built a career of taking risks and dreaming big. What will the former WWE Champion have in store for a grand blue brand return?
Catch the reemergence of Jeff Hardy on SmackDown at 8/7 C on FOX.
Paige vows to confront Bayley on SmackDown
Bayley has shared plenty of opinions as the self-proclaimed model for the Women’s Division. After Lacey Evans & Naomi’s recent resistance fell unsuccessful, Paige will now step up to try and set the SmackDown Women’s Champion straight.
The current WWE Backstage star’s last attempt at exerting her influence ended with The Kabuki Warriors severing ties with their manager with the message delivered via a green mist attack.
Will the former Women’s Champion have more success bringing her influence to SmackDown, or will the brash Bayley simply scoff at Paige’s advice?
Tune in to SmackDown at 8/7 C on FOX for what promises to be a pivotal moment in the future of the blue brand’s Women’s Division.
John Cena returns to SmackDown on The Road to WrestleMania
John Cena was ready to step out of the spotlight for the next generation of WWE Superstars, and “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt was more than happy to pull him into the darkness.
The two are now set for an epic showdown at The Showcase of the Immortals, and the iconic Cena will be in the building for Friday Night SmackDown.
Last week, Wyatt had his own message for Cena from the Firefly Fun House and showed off some interesting interior decorating as well.
