ORIGINAL: According to a new update from PWInsider, the current plan is to move this week’s Smackdown to Orlando, Florida after a number of back and forth discussions. An official decision to move the show to the WWE Performance Center was reportedly made earlier this afternoon.

WWE has not yet issued an official statement on the move for Smackdown to the Performance Center. The show was originally going to be held in Detroit, Michigan. Previously, WWE issued a statement denying that the Detroit show was cancelled, but the company was working on contingency plans “in the event that upcoming WWE shows are cancelled by government officials, civil authorities and/or local venues.”
