WWE SmackDown History

Friday Night SmackDown is the second longest running weekly TV show in WWE history. The first episode was a network special that took place on April 29, 1999, before starting weekly on August 26, 1999. The show has become a stalwart of pro wrestling television since then, airing on network television as well as cable.

The show's official debut on August 29, 1999 took place in Kansas City, Missouri and was headlined by Triple H defending the WWF Championship against The Rock, with Shawn Michaels as the special guest referee. Over the years, the show has become a consistent source of memorable moments and critically acclaimed matches in front of sold-out packed arenas around the world.

The program was introduced at the height of WWF's popularity during the Attitude Era and furthered their largest growth at that time. From The Rock, The Undertaker, the SmackDown Six, Brock Lesnar and John Cena, the show has been a platform for legendary stars and iconic moments in the company's history.
