WWE has now filled several of the previously open dates for episodes of Raw and SmackDown in 2026.

The company announced Tuesday morning that eight cities will host nine episodes of television in total in the coming months, starting with the November 9 edition of WWE Raw in Greenville, South Carolina. This will mark WWE's return to North America after Saudi Arabia hosts the annual Crown Jewel Premium Live Event on Saturday, November 7.

Later in the month, WWE will record the go-home editions of both Raw and SmackDown for Survivor Series: WarGames on the same day. A double taping for the Red and Blue Brands has been scheduled for Monday, November 23, at the Intrust Bank Arena in Wichita, Kansas, with SmackDown set to air at its normal time on Friday, November 27.

That show is being recorded ahead of time, presumably, to give talent and crew time off for Thanksgiving.

Coming out of the holiday weekend, WWE will head to Little Rock, Arkansas, on November 30, Grand Rapids, Michigan, on December 4, and Toledo, Ohio, on December 7, prior to the company's trip to Australia.

The city of Perth will be hosting a three-day takeover on December 11, 12, and 14, with Friday Night SmackDown, Wrestlepalooza, and Monday Night Raw taking place inside the RAC Arena.
