Cathy you can't move Game 7 by another day?!
Fun little aside: During the frantic negotiations over the weekend, an unlikely ally emerged-- the @WWE . At one point, sources told ESPN that Steve Koonin Atlanta Hawks and State Farm Arena CEO reached out to WWE President Nick Khan and asked if he'd be willing to move the telecast of this week's Smackdown to accommodate Game 6 of the WNBA Finals on Friday night.
Smackdown usually airs at 8 p.m. on Friday nights on USA Network, which is the broadcast network for this game. If Game 6 were to be played from 7-9 pm at State Farm Arena, the WWE would have to move an hour later.
Koonin, the former President of TBS, had known Khan for decades. Khan told him they'd be fine with the later broadcast window if that’s what was needed to help the WNBA Finals play in a more appropriate arena.
After that sign off however, new concerns were raised by WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert about playing a potential Game 7 on Tuesday, Nov. 3, Election Night. So that plan fell apart and the league moved back on to the idea of playing at 12:30 pm on Thursday.
Smackdown will remain at its regularly scheduled time. The Dream announced earlier Wednesday that Thursday’s Game 6 is sold out. espn.com/wnba/story/_/id/503…
Yall got the most night games in the SEC every year lmao
NEW: Lane Kiffin on LSU-Alabama getting the 2:30 p.m. CT slot instead of the night game he expected:
"If someone thinks the SEC wants us to win this year after what’s been going on, they must have just been on Mars the last four months. So I guess when I look at it that way, I’m not surprised."

Yall gotta stop this loser mentality shit man. You want this team to be a winning team, they win this game. Trap game as a divisional game doesn't exist for winning teams. That's some loser shit.
The Atlanta Falcons just beat an undefeated football team and are suddenly half a game off the division lead. That's exactly why this week's game against the 2-5 Buccaneers worries me. Trap game.

It’s a 12:30 PM game on a Thursday lol
Ticket prices for Game 6 of the WNBA Finals have plummeted
The get-in price was $156 when the game was announced on Monday. Tickets are now going for as low as $23.
That’s an 85% drop in just two days.

Lmao just absolutely loaded 😭
When I tell you this part had me WEAK! LMAO😭😭. These two druggies are fucking NUTS bro😂😂😂 #ReasonableDoubtHulu
You have DK, Pittman, and Germie. wtf do yall need another WR?!
Sources indicate the Steelers could pursue a late trade for WR Ladd McConkey or Brian Thomas Jr. to bolster their playoff offense, per @JasonLaCanfora #Steelers #NFL
I mean that would be speak more to the lack of communication imo. The W could’ve done this a lot better but the Dream also arent owned by their NBA counterparts nor technically have a home arena.
The real issue that nobody wants to address is that the women’s FIBA WC was during the season when it probably didn’t have to be but I assume it’s because the amount of games were extended during the W season(36 to 44 now). The W season would’ve been over like it was in ‘22.
Lmao yall keep blaming the Hawks for the W/Dream(mostly the W) terrible planning and lack of preparation. Mind you the Hawks and the Cavs have a back to back the night before so yall asking for a lot in terms of moving around.
Lol. Not surprised. Cornel should feel pathetic though
NEW: The group behind Cornel West's 2024 ballot push was wholly funded through Elon Musk's dark money network, according to Sludge's review of tax documents. readsludge.com/2026/10/26/mu…
The W needs better leadership man. This could’ve been prevented
Ramona Shelburne on what could happen if the WNBA title is won on Thursday:
"That celebration may not actually be on that court. I've heard there are discussions about whether there's enough time to turn the arena over in time for the fans to celebrate on the court. It could be moved to a practice court"
Unreal man smh
