WWE SmackDown is one of WWE's flagship weekly programs, showcasing the biggest Superstars on the SmackDown brand in explosive matches, heated rivalries, intense promos, and major storyline advancements that shape the future of WWE.
It airs live every Friday at 8 p.m. ET on the USA Network (in the US), with episodes also available on demand shortly after the live broadcast on Peacock (in the US) and on WWE Network or Netflix internationally (depending on the region).
Note: As of early 2026, SmackDown is a three-hour show on USA Network in the US, with occasional temporary shifts — like to Syfy during events such as the Winter Olympics — but returns to its regular slot and channel. Internationally, many markets stream it live on Netflix.
