WWE Looking To Start Taping Smackdown Live Once A Month? 07/02/2008 by Chris Cash
Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com is reporting that the WWE is considering the idea of taping Smackdown live once a month preceding pay per views once they switch to MyNetworkTV.
Although the company has not signed off on this completely, they will be airing Smackdown live on Friday, April 4th, in Houston, Texas. That, of course, is the weekend of WrestleMania.
If this did take place, then once a month, Smackdown would air live the Friday leading into the Sunday's live pay per view, ending with the regular live Raw taping on Monday.

They should tape SmackDown live all the time! Then it would probably have bigger ratings

That would be badass, those stupid kids who only read the spoilers would have to tune into the program to check it out, and once they have, they actually might see it as the superior program that it is.

I really don't see the point of going live "once a month".

A step in the right direction, in my opinion.

Jim Ross updated his blog and discussed Smackdown going live the weekend of WWE PPV events.
"Read a rumor where Friday Night Smackdown may go 'live' several times a year which is also new news to me. I feel it is 'highly unlikely' that this will happen but time will tell I suppose. My money is on that it won’t happen with the exception being the Friday night prior to WM25 in Houston.
"Even if it does, I have no issue with it as long as I don’ t have to miss any OU Football games then the Friday night business could become an issue.  For the record, I talked to people even closer to those close to the decision makers and they don’t think this will happen either except on a rare occasion. It is too expensive and would take completely retooling the schedule. Plus those who know the match results from the Tuesday tapings is such a small number that who cares?

Well it seems as if it is 2 months and 28 days late on reporting this.
