FOX RESURRECTING WWE BACKSTAGE NEXT WEEK

FS1 will air a special episode of WWE Backstage on Saturday 1/30 at 8 PM Eastern.

Renee Pacquette made the official announcement and will be part of the broadcast:

WWE Backstage was abruptly canceled in June 2020 as part of production and staff cutbacks brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.  

At the time, PWInsider.com reported, "Among those who worked on the series, the belief is the show is completely done beyond the outside chance that it could be used for special programming down the line.  There is no gameplan for such a thing currently, but things are being left open with the idea that FS1 could do more if they choose to do so."

Six months later, they are indeed using the series as special programming.  We are told the decision to do the special was made this week.
