I confirmed separately the SpoilerTV updated fast affiliate for Smackdown is right. tvseriesfinale is showing a different number that I don't think is the correct fast affiliate.https://t.co/EAFTEcxZuk

There was 1 minor preemption on Fox, nothing that should make this number misleading like when NFL preseason games distorted prelims for Smackdown throughout August.
