Apparently SmackDown will still air on Friday nights, it's the channel's usual Friday night lineup that will move to Tuesday nights. I wonder what this means for NXT though?

That's a good question. NXT has become a pretty good show. It would suck if it were a one-and-done deal. I wonder if they'll move it to another time during the week, or put it on another channel.
 
Jeff, If you didn't read the fist post, SmackDown is moving to Tuesday nights. The show started out on Thursday nights on UPN, then moved to Fridays, left what became the CW (Television for Women) and moved to MyNetworkSyndicatedGoingOutofBusinessTV, and in October, goes live on Syfy Tuesday nights.

Syfy has a perfectly good Friday night slate. As for NXT, this could move eitther to WWE.com or WGN America.

The only one of those I could see is WGN. The point of NXT is to expose these Superstars on a much wider scale. While WWE.com is popular, I don't know how many people would want to watch an hour long show on their computer.
 
Change WWE.com or WGN America to Bravo in all likelyhood...
 
That was a unexpected change of networks IMO.

Well at least it clears up my Friday night schedule to do other things...like play more video games =P.

Oh well~
 
well nice to see them find a solution to the spoiler problem
 
I wonder if it's more of a way to put pressure on TNA since they moved their major show to Monday Night.
 
Hasn't it been airing on SyFy for a while now? Maybe I'm thinking of a different wrestling show...
 
Yeah, 1998. You might be thinking of WWECDubya or the show which replaced it, WWE NXT.
 
How did I miss this thread?

As enumerated in the rules, Wrestling does not belong in the Real World. Moving this to Outside the Box.
 
Great! I thought Smackdown moved last year? God, where are they funding the money for this???

I did read the first post, that's what I was responding to.

The article you linked doesn't specifically mention what night SmackDown will be on, but it does mention that SyFy's (ugh, hate that name) normal Friday night dramas are moving to Tuesday. So it makes sense that SmackDown will air on Friday because why would they move the Friday night lineup to Tuesday if SmackDown was going to simply replace NXT on Tuesday?
