It appears as though SmackDown will not only have a new network to call home, but will also be airing on a new night as well.
It was reported earlier today that WWE and FOX have agreed to a deal that will see SmackDown move to the FOX network once the current deal expires in 2019.
In an update to that report, Tony Maglio of The Wrap is also reporting that not only will SmackDown be broadcast on FOX’s main network, but that the show will move to Friday night’s as well.
You can see Maglio’s tweet below:

Again, we will keep you updated as more information comes out regarding details of Fox’s deal with WWE for SmackDown, and if anything new develops between NBC Universal and WWE for the rights to retain RAW on the USA network.
