WWE Smackdown Backstage News, Producers, More
Added 2023-10-21 20:00:03 +0000 UTC- Nick Aldis continued his producing duties on Smackdown, and will work in that role while appearing as an on screen GM.
- Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis' promo was intended to be a reference to WWE's plans to run War Games, which was the plan as of a few weeks ago. We're working to find out if that's still the active plan.
- As mentioned last night, John Cena is slated for the next two Smackdowns, as there's a double taping next week ahead of the Saudi trip. We'll work to learn more about his future.
- WWE had previously planned on the Logan Paul- Dillon Danis face off for this show, and had no concerns whatsoever that Logan would emerge victorious over Dillon to set up this match.

Pretty sure it’s just a typo. Mysterio face off because they weren’t worried about Paul destroying that other person.
