Here are my Smackdown Thoughts: Sheamus VS Austin Theory was a great match but the finish was a little bit of cluster with The Brawling Brutes & Pretty Deadly getting involved. Tonight was Theory's 8th US Title Defense & his reign has lasted 181 Days which is the 9th Longest Reign of All-Time. If Sheamus would have won, he would have been US Champ for the 4th time, which would be the 2nd most Reigns after John Cena's 5. Good segment with The Bloodline. Night of Champions will be very interesting tomorrow as well as next week's 1000 Day Celebration on Smackdown. Raquel Rodriguez & Shotzi VS Damage CTTL was pretty good. Interesting miscommunication with Damage CTRL. The 4-Way should be good on Raw next week. Though we saw both videos before, the Seth Rollins & AJ Styles video packages were great. I can't wait for tomorrow. I love that we haven't had a single interaction between them. Cool video package on Grayon Waller. Cameron Grimes VS Ashante Adonis was a very good match & showcased Grimes' talents better than last week. Grimes' promo before the match was good. OK attack by Corbin. This was Adonis' 1st Singles Match on Smackdown in his Career & 1st overall since he defeated August Grey on 205 Live on 4/23/21. Normally, I don't care about the crowd. But this piped in crowd noise is annoying. Of course the crowd is dead as tonight's Smackdown was taped after last week's show so they were exhausted. The segment with Bianca Belair & Asuka was OK. Nice catch of Asuka by Kenny Dykstra. By the way, they still haven't acknowledged that the Raw & Smackdown Women's Titles on the different shows. It doesn't bother me if they stay this way as long as they don't do the stupid title exchange. I think Wade Barrett & Michael Cole re-recorded their commentary. Cole sounds likes he's doing voiceovers for the video game. Rick Boogs VS LA Knight was pretty decent. The Street Profits weren't needed on commentary. It doesn't make sense for Knight to feud with them. This was Boogs' 1st Singles Match on Smackdown since he wrestled Jey Usos to a No Contest on 4/1/22. OK promo by Karrion Kross ahead of his match with AJ Styles next. Wow, the main event is now. How long will the KO Show be to close Smackdown? Good video package on Isla Dawn & Alba Fyre. AJ Styles VS Karrion Kross was a great match. It really showcased how good of a wrestler Kross can be when he's wrestling the right opponent like Styles. I love Mia Yim & Scarlett going at it to set a match in the future. Great interview with AJ Styles. Rollins VS Styles could be a match of the year contender tomorrow at Night of Champions. Good video package for Cody Rhodes VS Brock Lesnar. I really wasn't into their match at first, but now I am after seeing Cody's intensity & dedication to fight Lesnar after Lesnar broke his arm on Raw. Yes, Smackdown's MITB Qualifying Matches: Zelina Vega VS Lacey Evans will be OK, but Montez Ford VS LA Knight will be awesome. Also, Roman Reigns celebrates his 1000 Days on his 1006th Day as Champion. For the record, Reigns has been Universal Champion for 1000 Days, but he's been WWE Champion for 418 Days, which is only the 6th Longest Reign of All-Time. So he hasn't been Undisputed WWE Universal Champion for 1000 Days.
Here are my Smackdown Match Rankings: 1) Sheamus VS Austin Theory 2) AJ Styles VS Karrion Kross 2) Raquel Rodriguez & Shotzi VS Damage CTRL 3) Cameron Grimes VS Ashante Adonis 4) Rick Boogs VS LA Knight
Here are my Level Up Thoughts: First of all, Mr. Stone was great on commentary. Oro Mensah VS Tavion Heights was a really good wrestling match. And by the way, Heights has won on Level Up. He & Damon Kemp defeated Myles Borne & Tank Ledger on 2/24. OK interview with Valentina Feroz & Yulisa Leon. Javier Bernal VS Boa was a fun match. Boa has improved since before his injury. Valentina Feroz & Yulisa Leon VS Jakara Jackson & Lash Legend was a good match. It's great to see Leon & Feroz back together. Legend is finally learning how to wrestle.
Here are my Level Up Rankings: 1) Javier Bernal VS Boa 2) Oro Mensah VS Tavion Heights 3) Valentina Feroz & Yulisa Leon VS Jakara Jackson & Lash Legend
Ends a fun Smackdown that got me more excited for Night of Champions. The matches were all pretty good, but the best part of the show was the closing segment. Level Up was good as always.
And finally, since I won't be home to watch Night of Champions as I have to work until 2, here are my NOC Picks: Cody Rhodes, Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn, Seth Rollins, Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, GUNTHER, & Becky Lynch. I will see everyone after I watch Night of Champions with my Thoughts & the full History of Night of Champions.

Help B-Fab looks like a sock puppet with that on. Ashante looks like he is getting ready to rob someone And then you got some Douchebag Dumbass who decided to wear that so people will stop making fun of him for botching but because the guy is an absolute bitch he decides to take the mask off to not try and hide himself.

Caught the highlights, but read the entire thread. Fun stuff. Makes me wish I could watch all of it Live with y'all.
I'm oddly enough enjoying the Bloodline stuff. I want to be irritated by it, but the story itself is fine. I just (continue to) hate that Roman has BOTH titles. That's my only beef with it.
To answer a couple questions: Yes, if Asuka loses she goes to Bitchalla. She will surpass Cody, and be the Queen of Bitchalla. She comes back, MDK form, gets Bianca Cena'd, piss poor heel turn with fakey crowd noise turned up to 11, if she loses again, yeah, she takes the crown. Cody at least is on a redemption arc of sorts. No one is allowed to "But her accolades!" to me ever again. I will throw a brick on the neighbors car if you do.
And NO. NO. NO. NO ONE misses Kevin UHHHH-OWWWENNSS as the way he's announced. Adding unnecessary syllables to names is annoying, just ask UHHHH-AAAAAASUKA!!!!! who's about to be the Queen of BITCH-UHHHH-ALLLLAHHHHHH! Learn to announce vowels or I'll sick Shane McMahon on you again.
Worst part of the show, the piped in crowd noise. Good god it was like Thunderdome on steroids. Did someone let Vince out of the Just for Men ward?

That could be fun π As we saw in The Way, Theory can thrive when he has other people to play off.
