When Will WWE Speed Premiere?
The new show will air on Wednesday, April 3rd, just a few days before WrestleMania 40. Fans attending SmackDown tapings in December 2023 saw the Speed branding and unique matches take place before the Friday night show went on the air. The trial matches did not make it to air. WWE filed the trademark for Speed shortly after the trial show.
In WrestleMania news, multiple legends have been rumoured for the event.
