Drew wasted his best Claymore ever. It knocked out Roman for 5 minutes. He's got no shot now tomorrow.

Pretty good episode. MUCH better than last week's, which was really dull.

Drew really should win tomorrow.
It’s the closes we’d get to Bulldog beating Bret in like 30 years. Also the build points to it.
And you cannot tell me Roman would “look weak” losing to THIS GUY of all people.
Drew by contrast with look extra bad in losing.

Also, Bianca beat the holy hell out of Becky and even cut her hair on the Raw before Mania this year, so this finish doesn't necessarily mean anything.

This is my first episode of Level Up.
I feel like this is the closest thing we have to modern Heat and Velocity. God, I miss syndicated weekend wrestling.

Some of you automatically thinking Drew is losing because he stood tall on the go home show I'll remind you Bianca stood tall on the go home show before WM & Bryan stood tall on the go home show before WM 30 standing tall before the PPV doesn't always mean that person is losing

I feel like it’s only a matter of time before Duke Hudson launches an Only Fans.

AJ Styles stood tall on the go home show before Backlash 2016 and still won the WWE title anyway.

Reverse momentum isn’t as clear-cut of a thing as it once was. Others have already listed many examples of such.

A Valentina Feroz vs. Sol Ruca match that was taped for Level Up was not included in the episode even though the episode description on WWE Network mentions it.

Here are my Smackdown Thoughts:
I'm so glad that I didn't organize my records & update my site for Smackdown since it was taped, since they are airing the matches out of order. The New Day VS The Viking Raiders was the last match taped. The New Day VS The Viking Raiders was a fun match. I like the Viking theme to make it different than a normal Falls Count Anywhere Match. I can see why they taped it last since there was a lot of stuff around the ring. I like that last week, we had the Drew McIntyre Story throughout Smackdown & this week, they're doing the Roman Reigns Story. Another hilarious segment with Sami Zayn & The Usos. OK segment with Shayna Baszler & Liv Morgan. It's the only match that I'm not looking forward to tomorrow at Clash At The Castle. Cool promo by Karrion Kross. Yeah, this is all out of order because his match was the 1st match taped last week. Another cool video about Roman Reigns. I don't mind them saying this is Karrion Kross' "in ring debut" since no one wants to relive his last run on the main roster. Drew Gulak VS Karrion Kross was good. I always say that I don't like Enhancement Matches when they use local talent & think they should use contracted wrestlers. Gulak was a perfect way to show Kross' talents. Yes, Gulak should win sometimes, but it's OK. Another good Roman Reigns video. A horrible promo by Ronda Rousey But I did like Adam Pearce snapping like that, but did not like Rousey attacking Pearce like that. Cool segment with Sami Zayn getting flowers from Karrion Kross. And now the show will go downwill with Hit Row VS Maximum Male Models. Now that they officially wrestled, I have to figure out how to do the symbols in Mace & Mansoor's names. But in all seriousness, their match against Hit Row was OK, since all 4 are good wrestlers. The brawl between Hit Row, Maximum Male Models, Los Lotharios, & The Street Profits was good, but I still don't get why The Street Profits on Smackdown. They are Raw wrestlers. No more switching brands until Survivor Series. Alright interview with Happy Corbin. Another good Roman Reigns Video. I like how each is about something different. Of all of the people that they can choose, why are they doing Shinsuke Nakamura VS Happy Corbin again. Do something different. Shinsuke Nakamura VS Happy Corbin was like any of their other matches. It was good, but short. I like that they dubbed in Aliyah & Raquel Gonzalez winning the Women's Tag Team Titles to make Smackdown seem live. Wow. JBL is back. He's going to help Happy Corbin. Interesting. Awesome match between Butch & Ludwig Kaiser. I love that he was more like Pete Dunne than he was Butch. I hope this is a sign of good things to come for him. Love the staredown between Sheamus & GUNTHER. I can't wait for tomorrow. Another great Roman Reigns video. I don't mind Tyson Fury being at ringside at Clash At The Castle. I just don't want him to wrestle. He wasn't good the last time he wrestled against Braun Strowman. A fun closing segment. Awesome Claymore Kick to Roman Reigns. I love serious Drew McIntyre when he wants to kick people's ass. Fun way to close out Smackdown. Ends a fun Smackdown. Even though it was taped & I knew everything that was going to happen, I still enjoyed it with The New Day VS The Viking Raiders & Butch VS Kaiser being my 2 favorite matches & the closing segment my favorite segment. The only thing missing was a Women's Match. I can't wait for Clash At The Castle.

Wow, Level Up is such an easy watch. More wrestling shows should be this short.

Holy shit, I was 100% sure New Day was going to win. Lets fxxxing go!
Also; lol of course the Raiders are getting a renewed push in the HHH era. 😂
Won’t lie. I actually kind of dig the NEW AND VICIOUS Viking Experience.

Harrion Kross might just be my favorite wrestler ever now. I cannot wait for his title run. 5 years.

TOO MUCH BLOODLINE 🤢🤮

Rhonda’s been legitimately pretty damn fun as a character these past few weeks. It’s kind of awesome.

GUNTHER’S new theme isn’t as good as his OG but it’s SO MUCH better than the first one he got post-change that just blended into the background and was completely forgettable.
So nice to see BUTCH in the ring again! His hair is so freakin’ long now!
