Backstage notes

- Reggie vs. Tozawa (produced by Kenny Dykstra) and Mustafa Ali & Cedric Alexander vs. Alpha Academy (produced by Jason Jordan) were filmed for Main Event.

- The script was rewritten and handed out around 7 PM for Smackdown, Maximum Male Models was significantly scaled back and Max Dupri was a last minute write off. Also the Liv Morgan/Ronda Rousey face to face was scaled back.

- Brock Lesnar, nor Stephanie McMahon were listed on internal rundowns for Smackdown. Stephanie's segment, much like Vince McMahon's random appearances of late, were at the top of the show.

- Titus O'Neil's segment was also not listed internally

- In case you wondered, WWE is still misspelling Ludwig Kaiser's name as Ludvig internally.

- Jason Jordan produced the dark match street fight with Drew McIntyre and Sheamus after Smackdown

- Kenny Dykstra produced the Los Lotharios vs. Ricochet & Drew Gulak pre-show dark match before Smackdown.
