Huge WWE Smackdown taping tonight, new time slot for ECW TV, TNA taping another week of Impact, PWG Battle of Los Angeles tournament, Robbie McAllister note
Sep 30, 2008 - 09:05 AM


-The WWE Smackdown/ECW tapings take place tonight in Green Bay, Wisc. This is a huge taping for WWE, as they have several champion vs. champion matches scheduled for Friday's debut on MyNetwork TV. If you attend the show and can file a report, please contact me in advance at dotnetjason@gmail.com.

-Here's the lineup for the MyNetwork TV debut: Triple H vs. Chris Jericho vs. Matt Hardy in a Triple Threat match, Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase vs. Carlito and Primo Colon, Santino Marella vs. Shelton Benjamin, Beth Phoenix vs. Michelle McCool, Kane and MVP and JBL and The Brian Kendrick vs. Jeff Hardy and Rey Mysterio and Batista and Finlay.

-ECW debuts in its new time slot tonight on Sci-Fi. The show now airs at 8:00 p.m. CT. You can watch along with Rich Twilling tonight as he covers the show live tonight. I'll be playing softball during the show this week and next week, but I'll be posting my usual ECW Hitlist tomorrow morning.

-TNA will be taping next week's Impact tonight in Orlando. No word yet on whether Mick Foley will appear at tonight's show after making his live debut in the Impact Zone at the tapings last night.

-Adam Lebow provided the following update on the WWE Smackdown television situation in Canada: "Canadians are actually able to get the station depending on how they get their TV. Obviously if you are along the boarder you can get it over-the-air and some cable stations (including Rogers in Toronto) carry it as a digital station."

-Robbie McAllister of The Highlanders is scheduled to appear at the Pro Wrestling Xtreme shows in Ontario on Nov. 8-9. For more information, visit ProwrestlingXtreme.com. [Thanks to Devin Cutting of ProwrestlingEvents.tk.]

-The Pro Wrestling Guerilla "Battle of Los Angeles" tournament will take place Nov. 1-2 at the Burbank Armory in Burbank, Calif. The tournament has been scaled back from 24 to 16 participants. The first day of the tournament will begin at 2 p.m. (PT) so that fans can attend the TNA house show the same night.

-No luck on the AWA match listings again today. The only note is that the show was taped on March 6, 1988. There are listings for tomorrow's show and I will post those in tomorrow morning's Dot Net Daily.
