WWE News: Two Former General Managers Advertised For SmackDown 1000

Today puts us exactly two weeks away from what is expected to be a big celebration on Tuesday, October 16th for the 1000th episode of WWE’s SmackDown.

The 1000th edition of the blue brand will emanate from Washington D.C. and appears to be a loaded program already. To this point, we’ve heard that WWE Hall Of Famer Edge has been booked for the show (read about that here), Batista will return for a reunion with Evolution (check that out here), plus Rey Mysterio’s previously speculated return that has now been confirmed by PWInsider.

It looks like there are a couple more returns planned for the big show as local advertising for SmackDown 1000th is promoting Vickie Guerrero and WWE Hall Of Famer Teddy Long, both former SmackDown General Managers. Vickie spent the majority of her WWE run from 2006-2014 with the blue brand, serving as the GM from 2007-2009. Teddy Long’s tenure as SmackDown General Manager was much longer, spanning from 2004-2012 with lapses in between.

It should also be noted that local advertisements are also promoting a big tag team match as Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles team up to face The Miz and Samoa Joe, however cards are always subject to change and it’s possible it is the dark main event.
