Next week SmackDown Live is set to move to Friday nights on FOX, and for months now it’s been rumored that a WWE studio show would be airing on FS1. Today it was officially announced that WWE backstage will premiere on FS1 on November 5, and that Renee Young will host along with WWE Hall of Famer Booker T.
“WWE BACKSTAGE is a wrestling show for wrestling fans. From hardcore fans to people new to wrestling, we’ll give them a little bit of everything,” said Young. “It’s going to be fun, it’s going to be loud, we’re going to give them a ton of opinions and I can’t wait to help spread the word about SmackDown coming to FOX.”
A special preview of the show is set to air on Tuesday, Oct. 15, following the conclusion of the ALCS Game 3 on FS1.
“It’s awesome being part of the FOX family and part of this movement of FRIDAY NIGHT SMACKDOWN to FOX,” said Booker T. “FOX Sports has always been the one-stop shop for sports and now it’s going to be the one-stop shop for sports and entertainment. I think this is going to be a tag team that’s going to last for a long time, and one that cannot lose. As I always say, now can you dig it, sucka?”
