The WWE cast and crew have departed for New Orleans as their very busy WrestleMania week begins. Smackdown was taped with RAW yesterday, although only two matches were done as the rest will be footage from Axxess and WrestleMania talk.

The matches taped for this Friday’s show are Dolph Ziggler vs Titus O’Neil and Los Matadores vs The Real Americans. Hulk Hogan also appears on Smackdown.

Just about everyone will be based in New Orleans and they will be departing the city on Monday night and Tuesday morning for Smackdown tapings.
