From the Raising Cane's River Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, it's SmackDown! Announced for tonight we have...
- Intercontinental Championship: Ricochet (c) vs. Gunther - Money in the Bank Qualifier: Lacey Evans vs. Xia Li - Money in the Bank Qualifier: Drew McIntyre vs. Sheamus - Max Dupri revealing his first client (ignoring those untelevised ones)
All this, probably, unless they change their minds on what brand Lacey's on again, tonight!

All I ask is they give me a casket match between Shotzi and Aliyah.

Seems like a fun but uneventful show that definitely going to get crushed by the finals on Network TV as well.

They really need to build Drew back up and I think him having a banger with Sheamus tonight can help get him back on track.

Man I dunno how I feel about Xia Li being Lacey's first opponent back. It just feels...wrong. It feels like WWE is trying to put up the ALL AMERICAN HERO against the dastardly foreign heel who acts/speaks funny. They could have easily slotted someone like Shotzi or Shayna into that role.
Lacey's gimmick in general feels incredibly gross (and not in the good way) though.

Lacey's gimmick in general feels incredibly gross (and not in the good way) though. I'm guessing they're going to do Shotzi vs Alliyah(which makes sense since they've been kinda feuding) and Shayna vs Rachael as the other qualifying matches. Shayna vs Rachael makes sense as either woman could lose that and it wouldn't hurt the other. Lacey vs Shayna works but Shayna shouldn't lose to Lacey in her first match back if they ever want to do the Rousey feud they've been teasing. Xia Li makes sense to give her some screen time and it doesn't hurt her to lose at the moment since she's still so new. You can always build her up(which I doubt they do but still). Also, Smackdown is Baton Rouge tonight. I bet Lacey gets a great reaction from the crowd. Not just saying that because it's the south. I am from New Orleans and know Baton Rouge well. Her gimmick will play well there.

They really should push her as a face man.

Money in the Bank Qualifier: Lacey Evans vs. Xia Li Is this a high school hallway fight because two bipolar queens are going at it

In unrelated news, the NXT live event stuff is already getting out of hand. A friend of mine is taking his kid to the NXT house show tonight and they told him that no cellphones or cameras would be permitted during the event. Which is very dumb.

Technically, we've got no confirmation on TV either way whether she was heel or face. Just weird promos that leaned face but could also go heel if they went further. It's more the dirt sheets saying she's going back and forth but on TV, they haven't done that.

You can't see Quincy in person and NOT take a picture.

There looks like there should be good wrestling on this show, but Gunther/Ricochet I don't see ending clean and the optics of Xia vs Lacey are... less than ideal... but I am always up for Drew and Sheamus killing each other.

Was planning on making this the third straight week of watching smack down live with ye fine people but life has happened and I鈥檓 mentally f***ed after stuff that happened today. Enjoy the show but I doubt very much I鈥檒l be watching as I need to try and sleep. Btw I fully realise this context wasn鈥檛 wanted or needed by anyone here but imo it鈥檚 better here then in my head.I am recording it though.
