Move On Over: WWE President Nick Khan Hints At SmackDown Moving To Tuesdays

There are still WWE shows on regular television, but one of them appears to be undergoing a big change.

WWE President Nick Khan appeared on the Pat McAfee Show this week and spoke about SmackDown moving to the USA Network this all when it current deal with FOX expires. Khan mentioned that SmackDown will be starting on October 1, which is a Tuesday. While not confirmed, this would suggest that SmackDown is moving from Friday to Tuesday nights when the new deal begins. WWE has not made any announcement regarding a change of nights.

SmackDown has been rolling lately. Check out what it has been doing:

Opinion: This wouldn’t be the biggest surprise as Tuesday is a far better night for television than Friday. While USA is not as big of a network as FOX, it would be getting a better television night and that is a step in the right direction. WWE is undergoing a lot of changes and I’m curious to see where it all falls out, because this is getting interesting in a hurry with everything going on.
