Up Next: Full November 3 SmackDown Taping Results *SPOILERS*

The show must go on. We are in a rather busy time for WWE as the company is trying to get ready for the Road To WrestleMania but there are still a few things that they have to cover first. This includes Crown Jewel, which will take place next week in Saudi Arabia. That makes the schedule a bit complicated, but one major part of that was covered earlier this week.

WWE has taped the November 3 edition of SmackDown in advance as the roster will be out of the country during next week’s usual time slot. The show was taped after this week’s SmackDown at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and will air at the usual time next Friday night. Here are the results, courtesy of F4WOnline.com:

* Kevin Owens beat Austin Theory using the Stunner. Grayson Waller was on commentary during the matchup.
* Shotzi and Charlotte Flair beat WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Piper Niven and Chelsea Green in a non-title match.
* Solo Sikoa and Paul Heyman cut a promo in the ring to build up Sikoa’s match with John Cena at WWE Crown Jewel. Cena then came out and had words with Sikoa before laying him out.
* Donnybrook Match: Pretty Deadly beat The Brawling Brutes.
* LA Knight came out to discuss his match with Roman Reigns at Crown Jewel. Reigns then came out during the promo segment. Referees separated the two before it got physical.
* Bianca Belair beat Bayley in a singles match. Post-match, Belair put Bayley through the ringside announce table.
* The report notes that a weigh-in featuring Rey Mysterio and Logan Paul was also advertised for next week’s show, but it wasn’t taped for the live crowd.

It’s following a big show. Check out some of this week’s SmackDown:

Opinion: This is something that has to be done every so often but it usually works out about as well as expected. What matters is having things ready for next week as WWE is mostly ready for Crown Jewel. It isn’t something that WWE has to do very often but taping the show in advance is the best option that they have. For now, all that matters is Crown Jewel working and that should be the case when we get there.
