Here are my Tribute to The Troops Thoughts:
Great version of The National Anthem.
As much as I don't like him as commentator, it makes sense to have JBL on Commentary with Michael Cole since Tribute to The Troops was his idea.
Good opening video, but it's stupid that they don't even go to a base to do the show & just throw 3 matches together after a Smackdown taping.
And again, it's not the 20th Anniversary. Tribute to The Troops started in 2003, that would be 19 years, not 20.
LOL. I love how they are making this to be live talking about how can LA Knight concentrate on his match with everything that is going on with him & Bray Wyatt. This was taped before he started his feud. His match VS Braun Strowman was a complete squash and made Knight look like a joke. This was Knight's 1st Tribute & Strowman's 2nd Tribute & 1st since 2015.
Thank you Midshipman Morgan Prigmore for your service & everything you do.
That's strange. This was taped after Ronda Rousey won the Smackdown Women's Championship, but she wasn't announced as Champion & she didn't wear the Championship to the ring.
They used to have real tanks on the stage for Tribute to The Troops, now it's CGI.
Emma & Tamina VS Shayna Baszler & Ronda Rousey was a bad match. It was Baszler's 1st Troops, Emma's 2nd & 1st since 2014, Rousey's 2nd & 1st since 2018, & Tamina's 3rd & 1st since 2018.
Thank you Msg. Matthew Williams for your service. You are a true hero & deserve your Medal of Honor.
I miss the days of live performances and celebrities at Tribute To The Troops.
Great video looking back at 20 years of Tribute to The Troops. OMG, Chris Benoit was shown on WWE TV. It was cool that they showed Eddie Guerrero & Shad Gaspard. I think the last shot of The Rock they showed wasn't from a Tribute show, but the Post-9/11 Smackdown.
No disrespect to Staff Sgt. Steven Green, but it was bad placement to air his profile video in the middle of the 6-Man Tag Match. They should have showed it before the match began. Thank you for your service.
Drew McIntyre, Ricochet, & Sheamus VS Imperium was awesome, especially the face-off between McIntyre & GUNTHER. It was McIntyre's 5th Tribute & 1st since 2020, Ricochet's 1st, & Sheamus' 7th & 1st since 2017. It was Imperium's Troops debut.
Here are my Tribute Match Rankings:
1) Drew McIntyre, Ricochet, & Sheamus VS Imperium
2) Braun Strowman VS LA Knight
3) Emma & Tamina VS Shayna Baszler & Ronda Rousey
