Right now, WWE is in the midst of recording several weeks of the company’s scheduled TV product in addition to even pre-recording the Granddaddy of Them All, WrestleMania. And now, there’s an update on which WWE personnel are on hand for this hectic filming schedule.
Via PWInsider, WWE is only using Florida-based producers for these ongoing tapings. More specifically, it’s Adam Pearce, Jamie Noble, ‘Road Dogg’ Brian James, and Shawn Michaels who have been assisting with this programming.
Already, WWE has recorded several weeks of SmackDown, 205 Live, and NXT episodes, while today and tomorrow sees them filming a couple of Raw episodes. As for WrestleMania 36, the current plan is to record that two-day edition of the company’s annual Showcase of the Immortals on Wednesday and Thursday of this week.
Of course, all of these offerings will be taped at the empty WWE Performance Center. For those unaware, the Performance Center is located in Orlando, Florida, and WWE didn’t wish to fly any other producers in for these tapings due to the ongoing chaos that is running rampant across the globe right now.
