Many changes made to June 23 Smackdown (Patreon)

Smackdown is not excluded from heavy changes.
Most of the WWE Smackdown script was changed ahead of the show on Friday, June 23.
One talent even asked -- "Did Smackdown get Vinced?" Many of the matches that had been promoted ahead of the episode of Smackdown were adjusted and cut, and there were significant changes to the version of the show that existed Friday morning.
We can confirm WRKD Wrestling's recent tweets that several talent were frustrated by all of the changes. This was the case for the start of WWE Raw the prior Monday, as well.
The originally planned LA Knight triple threat match was changed to a singles match, and a previously unplanned Charlotte Flair match was added to the card. Bayley vs. Shotzi was scrapped after Bayley was in town and did local media for the show.
We'll post more about the changes here as we learn them.
