Wrestlers On SmackDown Just Stopped Wrestling Each Other During Commercial Break Because Nobody Was In The Crowd

Soooooo the WWE decided to go ahead with a half a SmackDown tonight, LIVE from the WWE Performance Center with zero fans in attendance, and it's actually a pretty cool vibe! 

Triple H hopped on commentary, Bayley and Sasha both robotically played to the non-crowd for some weird reason, and - OH YEAH, SOMEONE GOT THE SATELLITE FEED OF WHAT WENT DOWN DURING A COMMERCIAL BREAK IN THE MIDDLE OF A MATCH! SPOILERS, AND IT'S NOTHING! NOTHING AT ALL! THEY STOPPED WRASSLIN! 

It appears they're getting some shit for this, as well...

Quite frankly, I support the ladies here one trillion percent. I almost called it a mailtime move but I don't even think it is a mailtime move. Why dafuq would you wrestle during commercial given the current circumstances, with nobody in the crowd? Imagine somebody took a bump a little funny in that time and got hurt? For NOTHING?! That'd be dumb! Plus, they had no idea someone would be able to look into the production of their show during a commercial break! 

Alexa Bliss responded to the footage getting out, and didn't seem to be too pleased, but has since deleted the response, making me think cooler heads have prevailed…

It's just kinda funny all around. Definitely not as serious as these people are making it out to be. It's fuckin wrestling. Nobody thinks it's real, ya know? We're all just havin a laugh. It's COVID-19-MANIA.
