We’re currently on the road to Extreme Rules and this week’s episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown is set to take place from Winnipeg, Canada. Hurricane is currently running rampant through Florida and it looks like WWE could be dealing with some travel issues this week.
Dave Meltzer recently noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that the company is very worried about Friday’s episode of SmackDown because so many WWE talents are in Florida. The hope is that people from Tampa and Orlando will be able to travel to Winnipeg on Friday.
PWInsider reports that due to the hurricane the WWE Performance Center was closed on Wednesday out of concern for safety. It’s unclear at this point how the storm will affect Friday’s episode of SmackDown, but it looks like WWE may need to change some plans depending on how the travel situation works out.
Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
