Post WrestleMania 36 WWE SmackDown To Air Live?

F4Wonline.com reports that WWE could be airing April 10's post-Mania 36 iteration of Friday Night SmackDown on FOX live, instead of pre-taping the show.

It's been mentioned already that the next batch of Performance Center TV tapings have been scheduled for April 10 (next Friday) and now it's being suggested that the current plan is not for SmackDown to be pre-recorded that week and instead it will go out live.

WWE made the decision to pre-record Raw, SmackDown and NXT for the weeks leading up to 'Mania 36 due to the current global situation and matches for the post-Mania Raw and NXT - on April 6 and 8, respectively - have also already been recorded.

If SmackDown is aired live that week it's also highly likely that 205 Live will also go out live on the WWE Network at 10 p.m. ET that night.

This is all subject to change, of course, with the current situation changing daily, but as things stand it's looking as though WWE will resume their live production of the blue show in the wake of 'Mania weekend.

Will this lead to Raw and NXT being aired live going forward?

We'll hopefully find out as we learn more about WWE's production schedule in the coming week or so.
