#3 Reason for backstage chaos on SmackDown

As per backstage reports, SmackDown had been in a world of chaos before the show went on air. The reason was that there was nothing planned for the show and everyone was clueless until Vince McMahon showed up.

This was the reason that nothing was advertised for SmackDown this week as even the writers did not know what would be happening on the show. Wrestling Observer reported that their source told them that this was nothing new and that it has been the story for the past few weeks.

''Nobody knew anything, which is why nothing has been advertised. Vince McMahon arrived at about 12:30 p.m. Another person confirmed people not knowing anything until Vince came, but said that has been the case almost every week of late, and it's nothing new.''

It has been reported as of late that Vince McMahon has torn scripts at the last moment and rewrote the whole show. As per the report, Vince McMahon had arrived at the taping at 12:30 PM and nobody had any idea about what would happen on SmackDown before he arrived.
