I can't in good faith give this Smackdown a high rating. I'm happy for Kofi but everything else that happened tonight numbed me to the ending...

AXE KICK THAT CHAIR!

[Deleted]

I gots to go with a 1. Yeah, they finally pulled the trigger for Kofi/Bryan, but they had to make it more complicated than it should've. Everything else needs no further explanation.

[Deleted]

Like a 2. The ring action was good, the booking was beyond ass.

[Abdullah]

I really liked the serendipity of Primo wrestling his best singles match against Miz in March 2009. And then leading the charge against Miz ten years later.

But that’s just esoteric, ‘shippy stuff. This episode sucked and I blame myself for praising Smackdown too loudly.

[Deleted]

2 for me. Nothing really made sense on this show. I love the visual of the faces championing Kofi Kingston, but none of that made sense. It made no sense for the New Day to just go "aw shucks I guess we'll fight another gauntlet" when Vince already proved that that concept was a farce. It made no sense that New Day won the gauntlet and Vince just goes "well ok then." Kofi's won like the most pinfalls anyone's ever won on WWE TV in the shortest amount of time, and Vince screws him, then Kofi's friends do it and suddenly Vince is convinced?

The level of pure disrespect that Vince threw at New Day through this whole angle screamed for New Day to brute force Kofi into the main event and leave Vince/Daniel Bryan embarrassed and defeated. After all this Vince is just like "sure have the match then I dunno." Like, what are you doing dude?

The Charlotte/Asuka thing I don't mind so much in theory, it wasn't necessary but it's not like Asuka has much going on right now and you can always give her a return match with Becky after Mania, since she has that tapout win over her. But at least do it in a way that makes sense. Announce the match earlier, explain who even booked it, execute it in a way that doesn't look like you're just frantically making it up as you go along. Weird weird show.

[pottsy87]

Loved it.

[DZ: WF Legacy]

That was a rough one. We got a historic AJ/Angle...uh....match-like thing, at least?

The locker room, and especially the Usos, banding behind Kofi is a great element to the story. I feel like they've exhausted the gauntlet stuff, though. And Asuka deserves far better.

[The Heartbreak TWERK]

Charlotte ruins everything she touches. 1/10.

3.

The Kofi stuff was a happy end, but the method to get there made zero sense.
I did love the bit with The Usos though.

Angle vs. Joe (another match that would've been great at WM) wasn't much of anything.

Asuka....I'm one of the biggest Charlotte fans on here, but there were a million better ways they could have reached this conclusion.

Tbh, after seeing that angle slam on Orton, felt it was a good decision leaving Kurt vs AJ very short.

[Hurbster]

Great show. Ones and twos - seriously ?

Yeah, seriously. The Asuka thing pissed me off and then they for the third time in seven weeks just devoted half the show to a Gauntlet Match, and that's not even getting into other stupid crap like Miz beating up five guys singlehandedly.

[Hurbster]

Whatever, fair enough.
