On Friday, WWE announced that it's adding three new dates to its already-announced August Canadian tour, its fifth since resuming live events after the lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to the previously announced live TV broadcasts in Calgary, Winnipeg, and Toronto, WWE has added two additional house shows and a live "Raw" between August 18 and August 21. The official slate from WWE's press release lists them as follows:

  • Friday, August 11: SmackDown® – Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta
  • Monday, August 14: Raw – Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba
  • Friday, August 18: SmackDown – Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario
  • Saturday, August 19: WWE Supershow – Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa, Ontario
  • Sunday, August 20: WWE Supershow – Place Bell in Laval, Quebec
  • Monday, August 21: Raw®– Centre Videotron in Quebec City, Quebec

Tickets are already on sale for the first three shows, while tickets for the latter three go on sale next Friday, May 12 via Ticketmaster.

It's worth noting that the last time WWE was in Canada for an episode of "Raw," Hall of Famer and Canada's own, Edge, stated to the Toronto fans that "I hope to come back one last time here in Toronto ... And in a perfect world, we all say goodbye to each other that night." So while the "Rated-R Superstar" doesn't want to commit to any retirement date just yet, it is all lining up for one of "SmackDown's" newest members to do just that when the blue brand stops in Toronto on August 18.
