Little mixed. On the whole it flowed well and there was some good stuff - that Orton / Ali match especially - and I liked how it was giving a ton of people promo time, but the opening segment was really, really bad and it's the only time where anything actually, like... Happened.

I'm gonna give the opening segment a pass because HHH told Charlotte to get the f*** outta here and it was cathartic for me

It was a fine episode, I guess? I’m more concerned with how, even without Miz, without New Day, without The Bar or The Usos in a match, without Mysterio, without all of these people that take up TV time, WWE still didn’t use any of its undercard.

The contempt they have for a certain portion of their roster must be incredible.

Oh. Uh. 5. Not great.

[ThankGodForSidJustice]

I'll give it a 7. I was never bored watching it and I really liked the Ali/Orton match. I also enjoyed the ending with everyone brawling so they definitely got me more interested in the Chamber match even though everything else on the show was just kind of ok.

I do like the angle of Charlotte being such an obnoxious heel that even 'The Authority' isn't behind her. Its also smart not confirming her in the Mania match right away cause they can keep exploiting the controversy.

Orton/Ali was good, everything else was forgettable. 6.

Like everyone else she's being overshadowed by Becky right now, but Charlotte's been killing it for a while now. Douchebag Goth Charlotte who nobody likes is gold.

I actually think it was a step down. Psycho sadistic Charlotte in the rumble was much better. I think if that was her overall character she would be interesting.

I enjoyed Orton/Ali and Bryan's work. Man, seeing him wrestle Jeff Hardy just further reminds me of the '09 Punk preachy heel turn and feud with Jeff Hardy.

[King Devitt and the Woke Mob]

5.

HHH's promo on Becky made no sense.
Whomever took over writing for Becky is starting to be a little too try-hard with it.

"The Man is back on Smackdown Live"

YOU WERE NEVER GONE?!


Orton "I'm not even going to bother learning my opponents name tonight" was a gold line.


I was digging Samoa Joe both times, but he was just feeder in the AJ/Bryan story.

Asuka had an amazing video package, and I liked Bryan yelling at the interviewer after the match.

That's all I got.

Rough week for WWE so far.

[Deleted]

just read the results so HHH was a babyface last week and now he’s a heel.Goodie.

Did they ever do anything with that AJ punching Vince angle cause top babyface punching elderly boss in their first televised interaction on christmas should have been a bigger deal?

9/10 . Just comparing Smackdown and Raw already makes me laugh out loud so much. Then you compare the Champions and you actually never stop laughing again.

Daniel Bryan is back on the top of the mountain in my opinion. Guys like Rollins, Omega and Styles are good, but this guy is on another level as a complete package. I wouldnt even bother putting other people in there.

Ali vs Orton was amazing and that RKO...

The Triple H promo was also very good, the dynamic between Charlotte and Becky is the best in the company right now. Triple H was also on point during the promo, I have some doubts about Becky (small ones) and he adressed them perfectly.

If you can only watch one show, watch this one every week.


Edit: Triple H is not turning every week guys. She literally attacked his wife yesterday and he was pretty fair about it. Heel HHH would have put her in a handicap match.

Well to be fair she's an inactive wrestler due to her "suspension" so there really isn't any need to put her in a handicap match as she isn't a threat to them until she's cleared to return if Becky's conspiracy theory is true about the Authority trying to sabotage her which I'm sure it will eventually. Once she's cleared I'm sure that'll change. I'm already dreading the Becky vs. Local Women (Nia and Tamina) handicap matches.

[Push R Truth]

The fact that I'm struggling to remember a show I watched 12 hours ago is telling

5/10

Few ups, few downs, mostly just boring...
