The fallout on television from WWE’s next pay-per-view event, Backlash, will be taped in advance.

Wrestling Inc has a new report that states WWE is going back to their previous idea regarding upcoming episodes of their weekly television shows – Monday Night RAW and Friday Night SmackDown.

WWE will be taping two weeks of television next week, which means the episodes airing after this PPV event will be filmed before the actual event takes place.

The company did the exact same thing with WrestleMania 36 back in April as they filmed the TV episodes before recording most of the pay-per-view.

After next week, stars will get the following week off. The current plans call for the next set of TV tapings after that will be the week of June 22nd.
