‘New Day’s Pancake Powered New Year Super Spectacular’ anchors USA Network’s 2018 WWE Holiday Week

WWE.com

Last year featured the cable debut of NXT. The Wednesday night offering on this year’s USA Network WWE Holiday Week isn’t quite as historic. In fact, it sounds like a clip show of highlights from Raw, SmackDown and other events from the year which was. But it will be hosted by The New Day, and there will be pancakes, so...

Here’s the official rundown of programming for the 2018 (and possibly final, depending on how NBCUniversal’s new deal for Raw works, and if it includes the annual Tribute To The Troops special) edition of WWE Holiday Week:

Monday, Dec. 17 - The week begins with three hours of everyone’s favorite, Monday Night Raw, at 8/7 C, featuring WWE Superstars Ronda Rousey, Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Sasha Banks, Nia Jax, Dolph Ziggler and more in Sacramento, Calif., at the Golden 1 Center.

Tuesday, Dec. 18 - The week continues with SmackDown LIVE, which will take place in Fresno, Calif., at the Save Mart Center at 8/7 C, with WWE Superstars Daniel Bryan, The New Day, Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Jeff Hardy, Asuka and more.

Wednesday, Dec. 19 - At 10/9 C, USA introduces a brand-new WWE special, New Day’s WWE 2018 Pancake Powered New Year Super Spectacular. The New Day host a fun look back at all the historic, outrageous and unforgettable moments that made 2018 so super spectacular at WWE. Featuring Ronda Rousey, Roman Reigns, Braun Stroman, AJ Styles, John Cena and Becky Lynch, along with some surprise Superstar sightings.

Thursday, Dec. 20 - At 9/8 C, WWE and USA will shine a spotlight on our nation’s heroes with the two-hour Tribute to the Troops celebration that will feature a special appearance by Jon Stewart, former host of “The Daily Show,” and rising country music star Morgan Wallen.

Immediately following at 11/10 C, there will be a Miz & Mrs. marathon. The record-breaking series features real-life WWE couple The Miz and Maryse as they navigate married life and adapt to becoming first-time parents.

Friday, Dec. 21 - The week wraps with WWE icon Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and his epic role in the movie “San Andreas” at 6/5 C.

Additionally, “Talk Stoop” will be getting into the WWE spirit as Nessa Diab hosts special episodes of the series featuring interviews throughout the week with WWE Superstars The Miz and Maryse, Ronda Rousey, the Bella Twins, Natalya, Nia Jax and Lana.

Will we see The Big Dog on Thurs., Dec. 20? We’ll see, but at least there will be Romey clips on The New Day’s show.
