Has there been a better opening segment to a show this year? That was fantastic.

The weekly Smackdown 7 from me. Didn't blow me away but it was very solid.

I gave it a 10 because 2 jerks gave it 1 but my real rating is 9

9/10 for me. I do have to list my gripes for each week; there were only 3 matches and this show was a bit heavier on the talking segments although everything was entertaining. There still needs to be a more well established IC division. They need to add guys like Corbin, Apollo, and now Swagger into the mix and build up a legit IC division.
All ion all great show. I also enjoyed Alexa on Talking Smack.

I would give it about a 7, but James Ellsworth was there so, 8.
Really good show. I've certainly seen better, but at worst tonight's SmackDown segments and matches were above average. There was no bad moment or anything. Pretty good matches as well, even if we won't remember them.

9/10 for me. I do have to list my gripes for each week; there were only 3 matches . 4, actually. Women's match Usos/Hype Bros Legislaters/Ascension Main Event And holy crap, I loved this show so much I didn't even realize there were only 4 matches. That's honestly a bit shocking to me.

I'm at like a 7.5. The women's stuff still hasn't connected with me, Orton/Wyatt is already tired and Ziggler is lame. Everything else is scorching hot fire so it brings the rating up. Ellsworth moved that 7.5 to an 8.

Has there been a better opening segment to a show this year? That was fantastic. It's on in about 10 minutes on the west coast. Are you telling me the opening was better than the one from a few weeks ago with the announcement of the new titles, Slater crashing the party and AJ being a dick?

Super solid 8. Negative points for Dolph. Negative points for Cena squashing Miz allowing for a future "LOL MIZ YOU SUCK WORSE THAN..." promo from Dolph next week. Other than that, a FUN wrestling show! Can't ask for much else!

An 8. None of the matches were must see, but everything was important. They had some strong promos, solid angle advancement, the arrival of Jack Swagger, JAMES ELLSWORTH and they set up No Mercy well. A very easy two hours.

This is a show in 2016 where the Main event was Cena pinning Miz and most of us are giving it 9s. That's how good the booking on Smackdown is. I watched this show with 5 other wrestling fans. Haven't done that since the early 2000s!

Most legit & easiest 10 I've ever given a Raw or Smackdown as far as I can recall. -SLATER IS LEGIT CONTRACTED (and they didn't swerve it) -Hot as fire opening segment -ELLWORTH -Miz on fire -Styles like a less coked up HBK circa 97/98 with his EVERYTHING -CONTINUITY This show can really do no wrong right now. Cheers, Smackdown and everyone involved. I've been "like'ing" quite a few posts from you and I just did now. Smackdown has been really good lately. REALLY good. Also Miz is on his way to being my favorite wrestler in the company, he's been SO good lately.

I love how the negativity from a moribund Raw 24 hours prior is sure to be washed away by the superiority of SDLive.

I'll throw it an 8. On the negative side, there's still people getting title shots they haven't earned. Cena leapfrogs to the front of the line despite having lost his last big match, a biased GM tries to give Dolph yet another rematch, and the f***ing Ascension of all people get a tag title shot. Also, wasn't keen on much of the talky bits. Stuff like that should be pared down more to create more of a contrast with Raw, as Raw is usually overly talky. On the positive, Mojo got his ass beat (always a positive), ALEXA! <3, there were some decent matches, and Miz basically told Dolph and Bryan and their little conspiracy to f*** off.

Solid 8 for me. Invoked a few of my pet peeves, but nothing that really got under my skin and soured me on the whole show (like Cesaro's cheap victory and that whole unsettling Jinder Mahal thing on Raw).
Miz is doing the best work he's ever done, and making me care about the IC title again. They may well be fixing the botched project that was the Ascension, too, which I was beginning to think was impossible.
