A new era is about to begin in WWE.
WWE “SmackDown” will go live for the first time Tuesday night, and Vince McMahon’s company will mark the occasion with a draft in which the entire roster will be divided among two brands — Raw and SmackDown — that will house designated talent each televised show moving forward.
In other words, the superstars you see Monday nights on “Raw” won’t be the same superstars you see the following night on “SmackDown Live” moving forward. It’s a tactic WWE has used in the past, and the new live element of “SmackDown Live” should help revitalize the company’s weekly broadcasts.
So where will John Cena, Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and the rest of WWE’s stars land? We should find out Tuesday night. Here’s how you can watch the action online.
When: Tuesday, July 19, 8 p.m. ET
Live stream: USA Network, Sling TV
