Where is WWE SmackDown tonight? (June 2, 2023): Location, time, match card, and more

Night of Champions is history, and the next WWE SmackDown will explore the fallout from the event. Roman Reigns is expected to demand an apology from The Usos for their actions. A couple of qualifying matches for Money in the Bank is also set for the show.

Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza in Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania, will host the June 2, 2023, episode of Friday Night SmackDown. It boasts a crowd capacity of around 10,000. Apart from hockey games for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, it has held graduation ceremonies, ice skating shows, and concerts featuring Elton John and Bob Dylan.

The Mohegan Sun Arena in Pennsylvania has hosted pro wrestling since an episode of WCW Monday Nitro on January 31, 2000. This was also the site of the controversial Vince McMahon limo explosion angle. In November 2016, the 900th episode of WWE SmackDown was held in the arena, and it saw the return of The Undertaker.

Dating back to November 7, 2022, the last WWE show broadcasted from here was an episode of RAW. The Bloodline won in a six-man tag team match against Matt Riddle and The New Day. Jimmy, Jey, and Solo Sikoa will now be present for Roman Reigns’ 1000-day celebration segment tonight. Except, The Usos don’t want any part in The Bloodline anymore.
