WWE SmackDown has shattered records in the Salt Lake City, Utah market.

During the main event promo segment last night, The Rock made a bold claim that has since been confirmed as accurate: the February 16 episode of SmackDown, which airs on FOX for two hours weekly, not only provided great entertainment but also set a new financial milestone for WWE events in the area.

The episode, broadcasted from the Delta Center, included not just the live show for that week but also the taping for the upcoming episode on February 23, contributing to its historic achievement. This dual-event format may have played a significant role in drawing an even larger crowd, eager to experience two WWE spectacles in one evening.
