WWE has made their annual trip to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, with plans to hold two nights of consecutive shows in the fraught Middle Eastern country. The first of those shows is tonight’s WWE SmackDown, which will emanate from the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh and will air live internationally but on tape delay in the United States. What time is WWE SmackDown tonight? Read on to find out.<\/p>\n

What Time is WWE SmackDown Tonight?<\/h2>\n

Tonight’s WWE SmackDown will air live at 7:30 PM Saudi Arabian time<\/a>. That roughly translates to 12:30 PM in Canada, 5:30 PM in the United Kingdom, 6:30 PM in France, 2:30 AM in Australia (Saturday), 10:00 PM in India, etc. Fans can watch SmackDown live at these times through Netflix (subscription required).<\/p>\n

For the United States, the timezone difference varies. When SmackDown goes live, it would be 11:30 AM CT, 10:30 AM MT, 9:30 AM PT, and 12:30 PM ET.\u00a0Fans however, will not be able to watch SmackDown at those times as WWE is planning to air the show on tape delay at its regular 8 PM ET timeslot on USA Network.<\/p>\n

Tonight’s SmackDown features three championship matches<\/a> in addition to an advertised appearance from John Cena as he crosses off another date on his retirement tour<\/a>. Note that with SmackDown airing later in the U.S., spoilers will be available in advance of the show. Check back here for a full report from SmackDown tonight.<\/p>\n
