As there's a Saudi show next Saturday, that means Smackdown's next episode for next Friday is being taped as we speak.
- Liv Morgan vs. Sonya Deville in a No DQ match kicks off the episode. Liv defeated Sonya with her finisher onto a pile of chairs that she had been powerbombed into before kicking out.
- Ricochet vs LA Knight up next. Knight cuts a promo on his way to the ring hitting on Samantha Irvin until Ricochet attacks him. Decent match that went longer than I expected. Haven't seen much of Knight's work and he impressed me, of course Ricochet was impressive as well. Knight wins after reversing Ricochets roll-up into one of his own and grabbing the ropes.
- Usos promo time. Usos claim they will be the longest reigning Tag Team Champions following Crown Jewel, which brings out the New Day.
(will be updated as the night progresses)

Can’t wait until the point in time where we decide Morgan has won too much and is now no longer a solution but part of the problem.

Sonya's moves onto chairs are so ineffectual. (See also Bianca kicking out of a DDT onto one easily enough).

Liv Morgan needs a Sandman gimmick. Come out with a 4 foot long dildo kendo stick, drinking an appletini, and smoking a carrot.

If my stats are correct, this was Deville’s 100th scored match for my points ranking project (depending on other matches I may have scored, I won’t say it’s her 100th televised match, but it might be), becoming the 202nd person to reach that mark between the current 2004-2022 timeframe.

I think Knight's pretty underrated in the ring, so I'm not surprised him vs. Ricochet was good.

- Usos promo time. Usos claim they will be the longest reigning Tag Team Champions following Crown Jewel, which brings out the New Day. New Day says if The Uso's retain, they'll be waiting for them. Brawling Brutes attack The Usos from behind and it turns into a 4 v 2 until Sami Zayn and Solo Sikoa run down. Bloodline stands tall at the end.
- Shayna Baszler with Ronda Rousey in her corner faces Natalya. Pretty unremarkable match. Baszler put Natalya to sleep. After the match Baszler pulled down her kneepad and hit Natalya right in the nose, kayfabe breaking it. Natalya got a little bloodied up.

Apparently Strowman did a thing with FIVE local jobbers (there was FIVE of them!) before beating up MVP. Here’s an artist’s impression:  |

If only Liv had had this power level at Extreme Rules.
Chucky didn’t kill her, he transferred some of his own power to her it seems.

Feel like there's a lot of really interesting stuff you could do with the Usos blowing it at the finish line on the longest reign and how everything falls together after that, but this is the Bloodline so they'll just win and the reign will continue to be completely interminable.

So Nattie's a face now? When did that happen?
Liv Morgan Hardcore Legend feels so out of left field although I can't say that I'm not enjoying it.

I think she’s just whatever they need her to be depending on the opponent she’s putting over. In this case, Baszler. Weren’t they partners in a WrestleMania match this year? |

I honestly don't see it happening anytime soon mainly because other then her there's like literally no other woman on Smackdown that is that popular. Like I don't think many people are going be up in arms and making threads about how Liv buried Sonya Deville or Lacey Evans. As apposed to Bianca and Becky who would beat popular wrestlers. Also it's not like Liv is even champion or in the title picture anymore anyways. |

Then they were also the post Mania feud for Naomi and Sasha where they got another title shot and lost again. They then just quietly split afterwards I guess as they then started pushing Natalya as a singles again so she could be used as a filler challenger for Ronda at MITB. Shayna then in turn got her brief bump up when was used as a filler challenger for Liv at CATC. |

Bianca Belair could have the exact same match with Iyo Sky and Lacey Evans go to the exact same result, and one would be called bad booking and a “burial” and the other one have not a peep made, and it’s all down to the subjective tastes of the beholder. The person I like lost, therefore it is objectively bad. Seriously, 90% of the issues in wrestling can be dumbed down to people playing favourites. |

That DQ match does make better product, that is for sure. Liv being in the show makes it x1000 more likely I'll check out the episode! 🤗 |

I'd be all for it. When it comes to Shayna and Ronda, I like how they seem to be making Shayna kind of The Dragon or muscle for Ronda. Those 2 together taking women out till the locker room teams up to put an end to their actions. |

I was excited to see LA Knight as a face on the main roster so that's disappointing.
