DIY coming together at the end of RAW was a big highlight for me. Hopefully they will eventually be worked into the title picture.

Dom wins the NA Title again. I think this will help the Trick/Carmelo storyline and it puts the title back on Dom who apparently helps with the ratings on NXT. I thought the womens triple threat match on NXT was really good as well. Roxanne, to me, is still head and shoulders above the others.

The ending to the Dom v. Trick match was really good.

JustinVerlander07 · 10-06-2023, 11:16 PM

Another episode of Smackdown, another episode with just way too much Jimmy Uso. It's just overkill and totally turning me off.

On a 3 hour show his more talented and over brother gets wayyyyy less screen time.

This is just my brain not being able to shut off but it annoys the hell out of me that Raw guys show up out of nowhere like they magically knew Cena and L.A. Knight were about to die and were sitting around this morning like " Man I just have this feeling we should get in a car and drive to SD because Cena and Knight are gonna need our help ". It's so f'n random and made no sense whatsoever.

Agreed, I personally would have liked it more if it was a call up from NXT so they could use the moment as an intro, get some pop and use them to start the next storyline

They were traveling together, on their way to Fastlane, and happened to be at Smackdown.

Didn't Cody say that him and Jey were going to Smack Down during a Monday night interview???

packman80 · 10-07-2023, 08:02 PM

Nice way to bury Street Profits and Lashley. If going to build them up as a heel group that loss does nothing to help.

packman80 · 10-07-2023, 08:04 PM

Wonder how much Pizza Hut had to pay to keep getting ad placement like this.

packman80 · 10-07-2023, 08:26 PM

This women's match is a dumpster fire.

packman80 · 10-07-2023, 08:44 PM

God McAfee is annoying.

scfa1975 · 10-07-2023, 09:28 PM

Damn that jump from the mat to the top rope by LA Knight

packman80 · 10-07-2023, 09:53 PM

The WHC match was one heck of a match on a underwhelming PPV.

scfa1975 · 10-07-2023, 09:56 PM

I'm sorry but say what you want I'm tired of the Seth and Becky show. Nakamura deserved that title.

SteigerWRX · 10-07-2023, 10:37 PM

Sh!tfaced Cody and Jey during the press conference was one of the greatest WWE things I've ever watched. Gold.

Yeet!

Not a Rollins guy but Nakamura sucks.

His entire WWE run has sucked.

Jolten Joe · 10-08-2023, 08:53 AM

Word is WWE is close to a deal with CM Punk and SS is in Chicago next month. With his ego I can see part of his deal will be to get the title and beat Rollins. Meantime Nakamura will likely continue to attack Rollins until that point.

He'll be around until Wrestlemania payday and then bounce.

I thought there was no chance WWE would ever bring him back?

I know he's a jackass behind the scenes, but I still like watching his on-screen stuff, and I think it'll be good for however long it lasts. Knowing him though, he may not make it to Wrestlemania.

I still put it at like a 10% chance he actually signs. There is so much apologizing that he'd have to do, I just don't think he has it in him to swallow as much pride as he'll need to.

Punk is great for a promo. Today, IMO, he doesn't look like a guy who should be beating people.

oplum29 · 10-08-2023, 11:57 AM

if Punk is back wrestling again....then looks like i'll have to start watching WWE again.

i lost so much interest in it because it was the same old garbage over and over again

but if Punk comes back....

Who are you excited to see him wrestle? For me it'd be Rollins cause the promos will get real so fast.

Jolten Joe · 10-08-2023, 12:39 PM

Punk/Rhodes would almost certainly have to happen also at some point. Don't really see Reigns as a viable option just doesn't feel like it would bring much to the overall Bloodline drama.

Problem is WWE only has maybe 3 huge draws and like a dozen or so high level mid card guys they could throw into a short 2 ppv max feud.

That's why I'm like he'll get that WM check and bounce. I can see what's in it for WWE (big money in merch and a bump in eyeballs). Only they know if it's worth the headache he'll bring.

I could see them basically lining-up 3 guys for Punk to feud with and they work to keep him in that bubble. Basically keeping him away from everyone else. Give him a bus, tell him to sit on it until show time, and pray he doesn't do anything stupid.

Drunk Jey Uso at the Fastlane PR...what a time to be alive.
