By Jason Powell

-The WWE Smackdown television taping takes place tonight in Buffalo, New York at First Niagara Center. The main event of Friday's television show was advertised during Monday's Raw as Big Show vs. Randy Orton. With Big Show returning and Orton expecting to take time off while filming the "12 Rounds" sequel, I wonder if we will get an injury angle or something that will set up Show with some extended time away. We are looking for additional correspondents for tonight's taping. If you are going to the show and want to help, contact me at dotnetjason@gmail.com.

-The dark main event for tonight's Smackdown taping is advertised as Sheamus vs. Alberto Del Rio for the World Hvt. Championship. As is the case with every show he appears on, the advertising questions whether this will be the night that Dolph Ziggler cashes in his Money in the Bank contract.

-The WWE Studios release "Barricade" is out on DVD today. The movie will be hidden throughout 25 major cities in the United States and there will be clues on Facebook, Twitter, etc. regarding the whereabouts of the DVDs.
