So it was announced that next week’s
SmackDown is essentially
SmackDown tag team titles will be featured matches.
Earlier in the week, we found out that there would be no pre-show for the first event with non-digital fans next weekend. I saw that as a good thing, because we really didn’t need it in the first place.
WrestleMania would typically be long enough that a pre-show isn’t necessary. Usually the Andre is pre-show match and that makes sense, and with fans back, I thought it would get featured as a sort of “Royal Rumble” style return to get the crowd pumped.

It looks like the WWE ThunderDome setup may be staying in the Tampa, Florida market.
The WWE ticketing department is still arranging flights to Tampa for the post-WrestleMania 37 RAW and the post-WrestleMania SmackDown, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. This indicates that the next ThunderDome location will likely be somewhere else in the Tampa market, where they are running from now for Tropicana Field.
WWE began their residency at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida on Friday, December 11, which is in the Tampa area. There is still no official word on how long the Tropicana Field residency lasts for, but it could be ending in early April.
