5. World Hvt. Champion Sheamus defeated Randy Orton. Orton went for the RKO, but Sheamus schoolboyed him for the win. The crowd was about 70/30 in favor of Orton, but popped big for Sheamus's pin. After the match, they shook hands and then Orton hit the RKO to a big pop. The show should end with Orton standing over Sheamus in the ring. I'm actually glad they have a nice, clean main event. I'll watch it for this, since apparently I'm the only one who is interested in this feud. You can count me too. |

I took it for granted this one would end with interference. Hey, has del Rio been on TV at all this week? He seems to have dropped off the radar as badly as Tensai. Del Rio was given last night and tonight off since he just got back from doing promotional work in Japan. |

 Antonio Cesaro does not approve of being left off the show again! nor the fact that he hasnt been oiled up by Teddy... Atleast show him doing something! Sandow was doing something this week i guess, but still! |

They gave away Orton vs. Sheamus on free TV? That could have been a pretty big pay-per-view match if built right.
I'll watch for that match, and maybe Santino vs. Cody, but that's about it. Everything else on this show just seems so dull.

Everything else on this show just seems so dull. It's not the end of it. I think the point is to establish who is the best on Smackdown and who deserves that title to show they are, which is why the feud is perfect right now. Smackdown can at least get that right, as opposed to the WWE title booking on Raw... |

Just thought with how Raw was and by the looks of this taping its not going to set the world on fire, they havent had the best week. Hopefully OTL will be good, it has the potential to with a potentially decent tag match, decent looking fatal 4 way and maybe, just maybe a classic with DB vs Punk

Hopefully this means Orton / Sheamus won't be played up as a huge deal or anything, since their matches together are always awful.

BLEH
what the hell happened? SD is so dull, even duller than RAW
is any of the new guys actually over, except for Brodus (although his pops are getting weaker each day it seems)? anyone wonder why?
Orton vs. Sheamus sounds like a cure for insomnia (talk about vanilla)
hopefully Cesaro is at least in a backstage segment or something

Agree to disagree there. Better than their Rumble one but I still found it really dull. Who knows though, could be different this time. Orton's really stepped his game up in the ring and Sheamus these days tends to deliver when he's not following his, "Forearm, forearm, forearm, miss Brogue Kick, hit Brogue Kick," routine. |

What the hell did Darren and Titus do wrong to lose this week? Ill hold my judgment until i see how they lost, but its like why would you make these guys lose when they are getting hot. You couldnt drag out a random team again? Second me in the "Losing Interest" crew. It feels like things are coming back to normal now that Vince is crapping his depends from the ratings. Dont be surprised if Orton and Cena hold the belts sometime this year, simultaneously.

Anybody that feuds with Big Show gets their career shot to hell. It took Punk about a year to recover and it might be about that for Cody Rhodes. Big Show is the Galactus of pro wrestling. He feeds on the momentum of others and leaves them with nothing. Daniel Bryan? That's an exception where the power of YES was just strong enough to break the rules of the universe. |

Besides, it was to the tag champs. It's not like they lost to Percy Watson and Tyson Kidd |

My god, this is one of the worst booked shows I've ever seen. So many stupid booking decisions:
1. Having Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger, two former WORLD CHAMPIONS, wrestle on Superstars and then get pinned cleanly by the Uso's of all people. Even though Ziggler and Swagger are the ones getting the tag title shot on Sunday!
2. Wasting Titus O'Neil and Darren Young facing the tag team champions in a throw-away match that will mean nothing. They've been building up the title match for a few weeks, and now it won't mean nearly as much when they eventually get it, since they've been beaten by the champs already.
3. CM Punk and Daniel Bryan getting very little build once again.
4. Cody Rhodes continues to be booked like a complete joke. This guy has been IC Champion for 8 of the last 9 months, and yet he's lost more matches on TV this year than anyone.
5. Sheamus vs. Randy Orton YET AGAIN!
6. What's up with the complete lack of Alberto Del Rio, Antonio Cesaro, Ryback, AJ, or divas in general?

Hey, has del Rio been on TV at all this week? He seems to have dropped off the radar as badly as Tensai. He was in Japan and China, promoting the upcoming WWE tour in Asia. Actually, funny thing is Mysterio was supposed to be doing this job but SOMEBODY had to be suspended for 60 days. |
