Skip Bayless’ popular talk show Undisputed has been on hiatus from FS1 since the departure of Shannon Sharpe.
The show is set to make its return next week, according to Bayless himself, who took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to announce the show’s “new dream team” lineup, which includes a trio of former NFL stars in Richard Sherman, Michael Irvin, and Keyshawn Johnson.
Bayless also announced when the next episode of the new-look Undisputed would air, indicating that it would be on FS1 on Monday, Aug. 28, at 9:30 a.m. EST.
The show went on hiatus in July following Sharpe’s departure, though Bayless indicated at the time that he was targeting an Aug. 28 return.
RICHARD SHERMAN! KEYSHAWN JOHNSON! MICHAEL IRVIN! NEW DREAM TEAM ON THE NEW UNDISPUTED. NEW LIL WAYNE INTRO SONG, "GOOD MORNING." NEXT MONDAY. AUGUST 28. 9:30 E, FS1. BE THERE.

Bayless and Sharpe had a long-running partnership on the show which dated back to September of 2016, when the program first aired. Sharpe announced in May that he’d be leaving Undisputed after the 2023 NBA Finals. His final episode was on June 13.
It was reported by the NY Post earlier this month that Sharpe would be joining ESPN’s First Take for two episodes per week, on Monday’s and Tuesday’s, during the upcoming football season.
Meanwhile, the 71-year-old Bayless will now have the pleasure of debating alongside his three new co-hosts, who, combined, make up 13 Pro Bowl appearances and five Super Bowl rings.
