WWE will tape two episodes of Raw tonight in Des Moines, IA to give wrestlers some time off for the holidays. Next week’s December 23 Raw will be taped following tonight’s Raw.
Tonight’s show has an advertised start time of 6:45 PM ET (in the arena, not on TV), which is 45 minutes earlier than the show usually starts in the arena, so it’s possible that tonight’s Raw could be on a tape delay of a few minutes.
The December 30 Raw will return live in Hartford, CT.
SmackDown’s schedule isn’t affected and it will continue to be live.
