Okay, I'm on the west coast and about two hours behind the rest of all of you. But can I just say that tonight's opening segment was great? It lasted 10 minutes, yet it was straight forward and progressed FOUR DIFFERENT ANGLES! 1: The women's championship scene 2: The tag team championship scene 3: Heath Slater 4: AJ Styles and Dolph Ziggler That was smooth, simple and so much more fun than a 10-minute promo. Thoughts? ?

Opening segment set the stage for a great show. Very efficient booking that got a ton accomplished in a very short amount of time.

Of course it was great. It had the hottest free agent in wrestling.

I said it elsewhere and will repeat it here, SDLive has Heyman booking it seems like I posted in another thread, but the ever reliable wiki says that the head writer for Smackdown is Steven Guerrieri who was the head nxt writer in 2014. Dunno if that's still the case, but Smackdown has a similar feel to the 2014 NXT.

It was a great segment when it was just setting up the Women's and Tag Title stuff but they believable way they worked the AJ/Dolph stuff in took it to another level for me. Then Shane and Daniel not even bothering with security when they had failed and the tag teams were there was a great touch. It was brilliantly done.

RAW couldn't even give people Bully Ray after a near 10 minute promo fest, safe to say, Smackdown has the better writers

The angle was heading that way. That's why people wanted Bully Ray, they just signed to a new deal, so for all that BS just to turn them face and to try and give The Club more heat was dull as dogshit
