    Sheamus & Cesaro, Asuka, Sanity.
    SD is doing very well. Pity about Big Cass.

    And Almas? Some talent there now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,790 ✭✭✭Bret Hart


    SDL now the A show. No Nikki :(

    With the amount of main event talent on SD now, coupled with it looking like Big Cass will be a player now also, wouldn't hold my breath on things improving for Rusev unless they throw him a bone with a feud for the US Title.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,880 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Always preferred watching smackdown but the potential matches between Miz, Bryan, Styles, Joe, Nakamura, Hardy, Rusev, and Shelton Benjamin makes it defintely my no.1 show now

    Smackdown number 1.

    Big Cass is surely working for the Miz now.

    I expect them to have a promo together next week.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,455 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Ok, if I have to take a Cass vs Bryan feud in order to get Joe, Jeff Hardy, Almas, Miz and a singles Shelton Benjamin into the upper card of Smackdown, I'll happily take it.

    In ring wise, Smackdown looks utterly incredible going forward. I didnt think they'd keep Bryan, and adding them to Styles, Nakamura and Rusev....the matches on Smackdown will be brilliant.

    The women did well as well, keeping Charlotte but adding Asuka and the Iiconics.

    EDIT: Forgot the Bar as well. Those two added to the above mix will be great as well. AND Smackdown's tag division kept its biggest stars while adding Raw's.

    Raw got the Fashion Police and Ascension. Smackdown got Sheamus & Cesaro and The Club!

    Show is probably too overloaded now which means a lot of people will get lost in the shuffle. Someone like Cass will probably be favoured over others to be pushed as WWE were high on him even after the stinkers he had with Big Show.
    Smackdown is generally poor creatively too which doesn't help.
    Also strange that there has been no WWE title match set for the Saudi card or Backlash that I'm aware of.


  • Registered Users Posts: 36,257 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Smackdown absolutely destroyed RAW in the 'Shake Up'. However, this is WWE. they don't see the likes of Rusev and Cesaro the same way we do. plus, we've still no idea how they'll book Joe long term, or even Bryan now he's back. i have zero faith that they won't fúck up that roster.

    Vince will likely just revitalise his raging boner for tall guys and push Cass to the moon.

    Paige is shít. Just shít. Like, really shít. How anyone can watch her and not switch channel immediately is beyond me.

    Charlotte is also an abysmal babyface. but sure, WWE don't really care about that sort of thing anymore do they?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,977 ✭✭✭HandsomeBob


    Too many heels on the women's roster on SD now so don't see Charlotte being switched from babyface anytime soon. Would be laughable if they did so soon after beating Asuka.

    Really curious to see how they fit Charlotte, Becky, Naomi, Carmella, Absolution, Asuka and the Iconics into a 2 hour show. Actually, I'm not sure how that roster in general is going to fit into a 2 hour show. Some good performers are going to be utterly lost in this shuffle. Going to see some awkward multiple star feuds I think which I hate with a passion.


  • Registered Users Posts: 60,623 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Could you imagine levels where AJ & Joe would be now if Vince had taken them to the WWE 10/12 years ago.


    Joes promos the last two nights were brilliant.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,310 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    Joe is a major case of what could have been.

    Is Cass now Nak's Diesel? Hope Nak ditch's his music for something less popular.

    No thats Raw, Dolph is Shawn, Drew is Diesel


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,977 ✭✭✭HandsomeBob


    Naka really is stealing the show with his mannerisms alone.....such a creepy prick. But hopefully they don't batter the fcuk out of the speak no English line. Was hilarious the first time but would be typical of them to make that a catchphrase.

    I thought at first that Jeff would move with the title now, but I think it's safe to say Seth will move unless we're meant to believe that Shane/Paige would agree to give away a champ without getting the equivalent champ in exchange.

    Never mind. There I go again, trying to apply logic to WWE.

    Some great gets for Smackdown and seems there'll be some decent tag matches in the future.

    So if Asuka had beat Charlotte at Mania, would she have been on Raw or Smackdown?

    Didn't like the look of the Sanity graphic minus Nicki. She has to come up as well.

    Oh fúck.

    You've just bummed me out, because they will 100% do this.
