Wow, seriously...that was pretty damn good wrestling/entertainment. At least I actually enjoyed the majority of it.
I've watched little WWE programming in the last 4 months or so, and the only thing I've been watching the last three or four weeks is Monday Night RAW...and man, did this episode of Smackdown leave everything in the dust on RAW.
And you know what? I've mildly enjoyed RAW in the last month, as putrid as many posts here make it sound, but in comparison, it is pretty bad.
I just thought I'd post this, give my opinion.

I always enjoy SD when it does a Beat the Clock. And this time they didn't ruin it by idiotically making only ONE of the participants eligible for a title-shot in each match.

Excellent show overall. I seriously wish RAW shared this kind of booking.

Smackdown has been the much better show for a while, it's actually a wrestling program! It just sucks I down have MyNetwork and have to watch it on YouTube. The sad thing is Raw was pretty good this week(compared to most of them lately) and Smackdown was still much better. Also there is no way a Raw beat the clock would start out with 7:20 as a time, and have two matches not make the time limit, and one beat it by one second. Heck the average match on Raw is two minutes. It seems like the average Smackdown main event, which this week was 7:20, but can go to over ten to almost fifteen minutes(I believe DX vs Hart Foundation was pretty close to that mark) is actually longer than the entire actual wrestling on Raw.

I think Smackdown usually has like 1 hour Wrestling and 30 Minute talk and I like it. On Raw it is the exact opposite |

Matt Striker made a Simpsons reference.
This show gets a BIG thumbs up!

IMO, SD! does everything better, even announcing. The commentary on RAW is absolutely dreadful. SmackDown! has generally had better teams. If King turned heel, I'm sure it would instantly be better.

I did enjoy SmackDown, mainly because I find Batista's "I lost?!?" faces to be humorous. I was coming in with little regard for the "Beat the Clock" matches, but outside of reception problems (I use a converter box, and the myNetwork affiliate here seems to have the second-weakest reception, only ahead of the ion Network affiliate).
And, I'm hoping that indy guy adopts the "Carolina Panther" gimmick. He can be billed from Charlotte, too.
