Notable Backstage Names Absent From SmackDown

It’s being reported that a number of notable backstage names were absent from last night’s ‘Throwback’ edition of WWE SmackDown on FOX.

As per Ringside News, which has had many of its reports confirmed by the likes of Fightful and Dave Meltzer in recent times, Bruce Prichard was among the names missing as he was on vacation.

Another name said to not be at the taping last night was Ed Koskey, who was busy “handling something else”.

There were also some other staff members not there, so Dave Kapoor (Ranjin Singh) from NXT was on hand to help out.

Triple H was there though, and RSN reports that he’s starting to have an impact on SmackDown every week at this point.

The site also reported that Mia Yim (RECKONING) was going to debut last night, but for whatever reason, it was cancelled.
