Talking Smack, WWE’s weekly post-SmackDown show, received a change this week. The company welcomed back fans and that means they needed to switch up the shooting arrangement.

Matt Camp and Kevin Patrick were hosts of the show in-studio. Kayla Braxton, the former co-host of the show, did interviews with Superstars from the Toyota Center in Houston.

This is quite a change, because Kayla Braxton and Paul Heyman hosted the show from the ThunderDome every week during the pandemic programming. Then Heyman was switched out for a very brief time by Pat McAfee. This week was a much different set-up as they had to figure out a way to make things work with the return of live fans.

“I made my #TalkingSmack debut alongside @kev_egan with @KaylaBraxtonWWE handling interviews at the Toyota Center,” Matt Camp tweeted out as he continued, “As you can see, I was thoroughly amazed by the @WWE Global HQ. The show is available now on @peacockTV in the U.S. and @WWENetwork everywhere else.”

Talking Smack uploads on Saturdays after SmackDown. It would be a live show, but the West Coast affiliates don’t air SmackDown on FOX until 8:00 PM their time. Talking Smack is on Saturdays to avoid spoilers.

I love pro wrestling and hate BS. These two things drive me. Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News. Worked in finance before realizing pro wrestling journalism made much less sense. Pro beachballs at pro wrestling shows, pro dives if someone catches, anti bullies, olives, and pineapples on pizza.
