My weekly column should be done by this weekend. In the meantime, here are my Smackdown Thoughts.
Awesome opening segment with RK-Bro VS The Usos. I don’t mind that they are feuding now since there are no teams to feud with on their own brands. Good segment with Sasha Banks, Naomi, Liv Morgan, & Rhea Ripley. I like Adam Pearce with RK-Bro. Riddle VS Jimmy Uso should be a great match later. Naomi VS Rhea Ripley was an excellent match. In a way, I'm glad that they delayed the Women's Tag Team Title Match until next week. If they didn't, we wouldn't have gotten this match. I'm glad that Rhea is OK after not being around last week. OK promo by Happy Corbin. Why are they wasting Drew Gulak as an interviewer? He should be wrestling. Decent promo by Madcap Moss. Madcap Moss VS Humberto was short, but OK. It looks like there's going to be issues with Humberto & Angel. Weird segment with Adam Pearce, Drew Gulak, & Charlotte Flair. Awesome. It's official RK-Bro VS The Usos in a Unification Match at WrestleMania Backlash. I don't mind it. It's less title histories to worry about when I do my records. Drew Gulak did great but Charlotte Flair was horrible. And what a way to treat one of the best wrestlers on the roster by having him be emasculated by Flair. And he can't fight back because a man can't hit a woman but it's OK for a woman to hit a man. Drew needs to go to back to Raw. At least he can have 15 minute matches on Main Event instead of this crap. Good promo by GUNTHER & Ludvig Kaiser. It's better that they don't do squash matches every week because then it will get monotonous. Another horrendous match between Drew McIntyre & Sami Zayn. 2 of the best wrestlers on the roster should not be wrestling in a 2-minute match that ends in a Count Out for the 2nd week in a row. Forget what I just said, the pay off of these stupid Count Outs is a Lumberjack Match between McIntyre & Zayn next week. I love Lumberjack Matches, so it’s OK. Ricochet VS Jinder Mahal was a short match. The IC Title should be defended in 20 minute matches not like this, but at least it's being defended on a regular basis. Also, Mahal hasn’t won a match all year, so he really shouldn’t be getting a title match, but he was great on Big Sky on ABC. Stupid promo by Sheamus & company. I thought I liked this version of Pete Dunne, but I don't. He's being treated like a kid. But I laughed at the graphic. The graphic looked like they all have the last name of Holland as it was listed: Butch, Sheamus, & Ridge Holland. Great brawl between The New Day & Butch. Looking forward to seeing this feud continue despite not liking what they are doing with Butch. Last week, I said that I didn't like Lacey Evans’ promo as I said that no one cares about her. But I have to apologize. Her 2nd promo was great. She really tore at my heartstrings. Now, I want to cheer for her & see how successful she can be. Interesting segment with Natalya & Shayna Baszler & Raquel Rodriguez with no mention of Natalya being on NXT this week. And did she call Lacey Evans a new face on Smackdown? She feuded with her & wrestled her 9 times in 2019. Unlike the WWE Undisupted Universal Championship which is so convoluted, the WWE Tag Team Championship should be an easier name. They can't call it Raw or Smackdown since it will be on both brands. The only downside is how will they connect the lineage for it. What a match between Riddle & Jimmy Uso. Loved that finish. WrestleMania Backlash will be incredible. If Roman Reigns isn't defending his title at WM Backlash against Shinsuke Nakamura, as neither one was on the show tonight, their match should be the main event. Overall, a really good Smackdown. I loved everything but the Flair Segment. I didn’t watch NXT Level Up.

Right off the bat, Troy Donovan gives me Theory vibes.

Didn't they tease having Damon Kemp join Diamond Mine? He'd fit in very well.

Nigel should become a horn dog on Level Up like Barrett is.

Note to future Damon Kemp opponents: Don't wake THE DAMON SIDE.

I don't think Tatum Baker, D.M.D.'s theme really fits her. Sounds more like a Cora Jade theme.

Like Tatum, everything I do in life is to get Ivy Nile to respect me.

So Roman is 100% hurt right? With no mention of Shinsuke. No mention of a title match at Backlash. Not even a Brock mention. Looks like it.

Are people totally on the Lacey Evans hype train now? What’s the consensus on these promos?
