Paige was not at tonight’s SmackDown despite being advertised for the show.

According to Ryan Satin, “Paige did not travel to Florida for SmackDown due to coronavirus related travel concerns which the company accommodated.”

Rob Gronkowski

WWE confirmed that Rob Gronkowski will be at next week’s SmackDown, which is currently scheduled to be in New Orleans, but will likely be moved to the Performance Center in Orlando because of the coronavirus.

Gronkowski’s long-time friend Mojo Rawley appeared on SmackDown tonight and announced that Gronk will be on next week’s show.

It was reported earlier this week that Gronkowski has signed a WWE contract and will wrestle for the company, and is currently scheduled to be at WrestleMania in some capacity.
