Tag me when Ivy vs. Lola starts. I've been kinda sick today and I don't think I can sit through an Eddy Thorpe match. It's over!

"I'm the NXT breakout superstar of the year so get used to it!" *fans self*
I said the exact same thing at Thanksgiving dinner yesterday.

There are way too many Facts & Stats for Survivor Series to share,so you just have to read the preview in the Survivor Series Post.
Here are my Smackdown Thoughts, Facts, & Stats Welcome back Corey Graves. I like that they have the Survivor Series set up already but the ring crew has to take apart this ring and then put 2 rings up tomorrow. So, props to them. Good opening segment with Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair, & Shotzi & Bayley. Luckily I have the facts about the last time Becky & Charlotte teamed up for my Survivor Series preview. Good video the Men's War Games Match. Asuka & Bayley as partners is interesting. Luckily, I have their Tag Team History too. The Street Profits VS The Judgment Day was incredible. FACTS: This was The Street Profits' 1st Tag Team Championship Match since they lost to The Usos at SummerSlam on 7/30/22. If they would have won, they would have been the 14th 2-time Raw Tag Team Champions & 1st since RK-Bro & the 4th 2-time Smackdown Tag Team Champions after The New Day, The Usos & The Judgment Day. This was Finn Balor's 1st Smackdown since he defeated AJ Styles on 9/15 & Damian Priest's 1st Smackdown since The Judgment Day defeated The Brawling Brutes on 9/8. This was The Judgment Daysβs 2nd Tag Team Championship Defense, so if they would have lost, they would have been the 1st Champions since themselves when they lost to Cody Rhodes & Jey Uso to lose in their 2nd Defense. The Judgment Day's Tag Team Championship Reign has lasted 39 Days, so if they would have lost, they would have been the 1st lose in 39 Days, which is the 10th Shortest Raw Tag Team Championship Reign of All-Time & the 6th Shortest Smackdown Tag Team Championship Reign of All-Time. This was the 3rd 2-on-2 Match between them after Raw on 12/19/22 (won by Street Profits) & Raw on 2/13 (won by Judgment Day), so The Street Profits won 1 match & The Judgment Day won 2 matches. Uh oh dissension between Becky Lynch & Charlotte Flair. Fun Grayson Waller Effect with Austin Theory as KO, but Kevin Owens & LA Knight make any segment fun. The Tag Match should be great next. LA Knight & Kevin Owens VS Austin Theory & Grayson Waller was a fun match. FACT: This was Kevin Owens' 1st Smackdown since 10/27, his 1st Tag Team Match on Smackdown since he & Sami Zayn defeated The LWO on 9/1, & the 1st time he teamed with someone other than Zayn since he teamed with Jey Uso in a loss to The Judgment Day on Raw on 9/11 & 1st on Smackdown since he & John Cena defeated Roman Reigns & Sami Zayn on 12/30. This was LA Knight's 1st Tag Match on Smackdown since he & Rick Boogs lost to The Street Profits on 5/19. This was Austin Theory & Grayson Waller's 1st Tag Match since they defeated Cameron Grimes & Dragon Lee on 10/20. Another good segment with Becky Lynch & Bianca Belair. I like Bianca being the peacekeeper. Good promo with Carlito, though he didn't specify. Survivor Series would be his 1st 1-on-1 Match on PPV in 13 years, when he lost to Triple H at Unforgiven in 2007. Great attack by Santos Escobar. Luckily I read the spoilers so I knew what was going to happen to prepare ahead of time. Nice save by Dragon Lee after Santos Escobar's attack on Carlito. Lee VS Escobar could be an awesome replacement for Carlito VS Escobar at Survivor Series. The Brawling Brutes VS Pretty Deadly was short & just used as an angle to continue the problems in The Brawling Brutes, which was interesting. I can see Sheamus returning to restore order in the Brawling Brutes. FACT: This was the 4th 2-on-2 Match between them after NXT on 10/4/22 & Smackdown on 5/19 & 10/13 which was all won by Pretty Deadly. OK segment with Shotzi & Charlotte Flair. At least it looks like we're not getting any food fights or Thanksgiving related crap tonight. Thanks to Nick Aldis, the match is official. We're getting Dragon Lee VS Santos Escobar. And since I just did the research for it. I will share it. Lee VS Escobar will be the 1st 1-on-1 Match between 2 wrestlers making their Survivor Series debut since Hornswoggle VS The Great Khali in 2007 & the 1st match between 2 wrestlers making their Singles WWE PPV debut at Survivor Series since Kurt Angle VS Shawn Stasiak in 1999. Charlotte Flair & Becky Lynch VS Asuka & Bayley was pretty good. I had a feeling that there would be issues between Charlotte & Becky for Survivor Series. Since the heels always get War Games advantage, this match should have decided that instead of the stupid poll. FACTS: This was Becky Lynch's 1st Smackdown since she lost to Sasha Banks on 10/15/21. This was the 1st time that Charlotte Flair & Becky Lynch teamed up since they wrestled Sasha Banks & Bianca Belair to a No Contest on Raw on 10/11/21 & 1st on Smackdown since they defeated Sasha Banks & Bayley on 10/4/19. This was the 1st time that Asuka & Bayley teamed up since they, Ember Moon, & Kairi Sane defeated Sonya Deville, The Iiconics, & Mandy Rose on Smackdown on 4/16/19 & the 1st time they teamed in a 2-on-2 Match since they defeated Nia Jax & Eva Marie on NXT on 3/16/16. This was the 1st Smackdown of 2023 to have only Tag Team Matches.
Here are my Smackdown Match Rankings: 1) LA Knight & Kevin Owens VS Austin Theory & Grayson Waller 2) The Street Profits VS The Judgment Day 3) Charlotte Flair & Becky Lynch VS Damage CTRL 4) The Brawling Brutes VS Pretty Deadly
Overall a really good Smackdown. All 4 matches were very good. Nice last minute build for Survivor Series, which will be awesome.
Ends Smackdown Thoughts & Facts & Stats. I will not be watching Level Up since it's a Best of 2023 Show so I already saw the matches & don't think the ones they chose are the best of the year.

Imagine trying to narrow the best LVL UP matches of the year down to 4.

Ivy Nile is HBK's biggest dropped ball in NXT. How she never got even a TV special title match against Tiff or Mandy baffles me.

Kelani talking about being at her niece's funeral almost has me as emotional as Charlotte telling Shotzi she's still beautiful even with short hair.

These segments are 10x funnier when you imagine them confessing all of this to a priest.
