WWE Talking Smack To Go Head-To-Head With AEW Rampage on October 29

The Friday 29 October episode of AEW Rampage will have a different sort of competition from WWE as Talking Smack will be presented live on Fox Sports 1.

According to television listings in the United States, per WrestlingNews.co, WWE Friday Night SmackDown on October 29 will once again be moved to FS1 due to FOX's live coverage of the World Series. FS1 will show the two-hour SmackDown in its usual time slot with Talking Smack - WWE's weekly panel show following SmackDown - being aired at 10pm Eastern Time.

The hour-long Talking Smack show will therefore be up against AEW Rampage in the battle for ratings on Friday 29 October, although neither WWE or AEW is expected to record notably high ratings due to interest in the World Series.

The October 29 episode of Rampage will be a taped program, with the matches being pre-recorded at the Agganis Arena in Boston following AEW Dynamite on Wednesday 27 October.

It is not known at this time if the decision to show Talking Smack on FS1 is a permanent change in Fox's television schedule. The interview panel show is usually kept for Peacock and the WWE Network.
