WWE conducted professional wrestling tapings for its Raw and SmackDown programs in late August 2026. In Ottawa, Ontario, SmackDown featured a scheduled Triple Threat match between Kevin Owens, Gunther, and Finn Balor to determine a challenger for Undisputed WWE Champion CM Punk. The Ottawa event also included matches involving Tatum Paxley, Michin, Jacy Jayne, Paige, Chelsea Green, Tiffany Stratton, Nia Jax, and Lash Legend, alongside a confrontation between Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton. During the Raw tapings in Ottawa, LA Knight addressed his feud with Roman Reigns and the Bloodline, and Stephanie Vaquer defeated Roxanne Perez. Subsequent tapings in Cleveland, Ohio, continued these storylines. The Cleveland SmackDown segments maintained the focus on the Triple Threat match involving Gunther, Finn Balor, and Kevin Owens, with CM Punk slated to interrupt a promo by Owens. The Raw tapings in Cleveland included segments featuring Roman Reigns, LA Knight, Dominik Mysterio, and various members of the Judgment Day. Recent SmackDown programming saw CM Punk successfully defend the WWE Championship against Johnny Gargano following tensions between Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. Nia Jax secured a victory over Tiffany Stratton and has been granted a title shot in Mexico City. Meanwhile, WWE Women’s Champion Chelsea Green suffered an injury during a segment involving Jax. For the September 6 WWE Sunday Night’s Main Event in Atlanta, Georgia, the match card includes a six-woman tag team match ~~has been added~~ featuring Alexa Bliss, Charlotte Flair, and Tatum Paxley against Jade Cargill, B-Fab, and Michin. Other scheduled matches for that event include Cody Rhodes versus Randy Orton, Oba Femi against Bron Breakker, and a Five-Minute Challenge between Lil Yachty and Baron Corbin. If Lil Yachty survives the duration of his challenge, Trick Williams will earn a rematch for the United States Championship.
