As per the usually reliable @WrestleVotes, the WWE President and Chief Revenue Officer was in attendance at Philadelphia's Wells Fargo Center for the company's most recent blue brand outing.

There's no word on why Khan was at SmackDown, although he seemingly spent plenty of time with Vince McMahon across Friday. What is known, is that Khan being at WWE TV isn't a regular thing.

Of course, Friday's SmackDown was the go-home show before tonight's Extreme Rules PPV.

For Extreme Rules, the current card for the event looks like this:

- Universal Champion Roman Reigns vs. 'The Demon' Finn Balor in an Extreme Rules Match

- SmackDown Women's Champion Becky Lynch vs. Bianca Belair

- Raw Women's Champion Charlotte Flair vs. Alexa Bliss

- United States Champion Damian Priest vs. Sheamus vs. Jeff Hardy

- SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos vs. The Street Profits

- Liv Morgan vs. Carmella

Given the usual stipulation-heavy nature of the annual Extreme Rules PPV, it remains to be seen whether WWE adds any stipulations or gimmicks to some of these bouts before the show starts. There have been rumblings that the US Title contest may end up being a Tables Match, although that has yet to be made official.
