Smackdown Going to SyFy



According to reports written in the Los Angeles Times, SyFy has shelled out an estimated $30,000,000 to the WWE to successfully rope in the Smackdown brand for the SyFy network.
That would make the SyFy network the channel to go to in order to view both the new NXT program and the Smackdown brand. One can only assume that this news spells the imminent doom for MyNetwork TV, which previously had Smackdown on its lineup, the only large ratings draw for the channel.

Not sure what MyNetwork will do (besides air reruns of Veronica Mars and such), but this DOES spell the end of NXT, which will end in October to make way for Smackdown, according to the WWE Corporate press release. :)
