Post-WWE Royal Rumble SmackDown Live Event Cancelled
Damn production issues...
The WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view takes place on Sunday, January 27, 2019, from Chase Field in Pheonix, Arizona. The following night, Monday Night Raw will be taking place inside the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Pheonix, while a SmackDown Live live event was set to take place in Tucson.
However, that blue brand live event has been cancelled due to "production issues" - what those production issues are is unclear at this stage.
At the time of writing, it appears the Superstars of SmackDown Live will be getting the night of the 28th off due to the cancellation.
Here is the official statement from WWE on the matter:
“WWE® LIVE JANUARY 28 IN TUCSON CANCELLED
