[Gus Richlen: Ruffian]

Not really bad but gonna go 6. Kinda went out of it after LOLBIANCAWINS again.

[clc]

Barely watched. Saw it was Bianca vs Bayley, so I decided not to pay much attention.
0/10

[Friday Night SmackOwn]

7/10

I do find the whole deal with Nick Aldis being such a thorn in the Bloodline's side to be the most interesting the group's been in quite some time.

[Schizo]

Entertaining show imo, love Nick aldis being a pain in the ass to the bloodline, why was it so hard for others before him to do it

because Adam Pearce sucks at his job.

[DMO-]

I don’t know if it’s just me, if it’s not a PLE, a post PLE show or a special
Themed show then it just feels like filler for me and find it hard to stay focused, this was definitely one of those episodes for me.

[ben:friendship frog]

There was nothing wrong with it but I don't feel like I would have missed anything if I didn't see it. Just seemed like filler really.

[john84]

Gone with a 6. Belair v Bayley was a decent match even if it was predictable in terms of who'd win. The teasing of Bayley being kicked out of Damage CTRL was good. Up until the fall I was enjoying Hayes v Theory.

Other than that I think it was pretty skippable SmackDown from my perspective at least though I did like the SHIELD bomb at the end by Orton, Styles and Knight.

[Friday Night SmackOwn]

SD ending on Randy saying “screw his big ass” merits it at least a 7/10 rating.

That may be, but it was only when they hired Aldis that they bothered to actually officially give a GM position to Pearce. Nobody took him seriously as an authority for the four or so years because nobody, including Pearce himself, was entirely certain he even HAD any authority, and it showed in his decision-making process. Aldis had full support from the word go, so he can actually flex his muscle a bit.

[schma]

I am enjoying that Nick Aldis is not taking shit from Roman or the Bloodline. It certainly freshens things up a bit which they were in dire need of. Plus, I'm just generally in favour of a relatively neutral GM that doesn't take shit if they're going to insist on having a GM.

6.

Not overly great, but not terrible either.
