Former WWE executive Bruce Prichard recently took to his podcast, “Something To Wrestle,” to talk about the first-ever episode of SmackDown Live. The timing is fitting, given that tonight (Tues. October 16, 2018) the WWE will celebrate its 1000th episode of SmackDown.

The show will feature several former WWE stars, as well as some of the biggest stars on the roster today. During his show, Prichard actually revealed something interesting about SmackDown. Upon its inception, the show was actually at one point discussed to be an all-women show:

“We definitely discussed it,” admitted Prichard. “We looked at it, but we just didn’t have the depth to do it on a consistent basis week after week.

“We really didn’t have enough talent to do that, and in addition to that, if you were going to do that maybe not do it on the broadcast show because Vince McMahon was looking at that the more eyeballs maybe if this broadcast show takes off to possibly make Raw an all-women’s show, but we definitely discussed that many times throughout the years.”
