I was at the last smack down taping and the match quality was great, but you could tell it was just about putting matches on TV

You wouldn't if things actually happened on Smackdown that are worth going out of your way to see.

The last time I went out of my way to watch SmackDown was the episode last year when the entire episode focused on The Shield beating the shit out of every heel in the company after their face turn. So yeah, it's been a while.

I honestly forgot that Brock was champ during his most recent reign but yeah, I've given up even checking smackdown results let alone watching it.

Only thing that could save it would be doing another Roster split where it would be its own thing again.
Lately I've been watching Smackdown from years ago and it had a vibrancy that has not been there in a long time. Cause they had their own identity, their own wrestlers, titles...even own PPV. Those wrestlers wrestling there, it was their own show, it was their own career on the line when they appeared on TV and cause of that everybody was busting their ass. Edge for example, really became a wrestling star cause of Smackdown. In fact he's been more of a Smackdown Legend than a WWE Legend.
Since then, it's almost as if Vince wants the show to just die.

I barely watch Raw as it is - Smackdown isn't on my radar at all.
Raw is more than enough WWE.

Serious question: what's the last significant thing to happen on Smackdown? Title Change? Heel/Face turn? Big win? Feud starting?

So apparently Jimmy Uso has been doing commentary on Smackdown for some time? I had no idea about this whatsoever.

I always forget about Smackdown. I loved it. The blue ropes, the cool entrance with the big hoops and then the one with the big fist. It was great.
I wonder why they cancelled it.
...wait what?

It has been hard for me to watch Smackdown since the brand split ended. Instead of it being its own show with its own stars and own titles, it is now a couple extra hours for RAW. I still say brand split was a good thing

I haven't watched SD in a few months and always forget about it, so I just say "Whatever" and move on to the next Raw.
