Notably, the August 31 episode of Monday Night RAW was originally slated to take place at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. However, the venue later announced that it would instead host the February 19, 2027, episode of Friday Night SmackDown.

WWE also recently canceled the September 4 taping of SmackDown in Cincinnati, Ohio. The company has yet to announce the new location for that show. 411Mania will provide updates related to it as and when they are available.
