* SmackDown opens up with Vickie Guerrero, Cesaro, Jack Swagger, Paul Heyman and Zeb Colter in the ring. There are two podiums set up. Vickie announces the main event tonight will be The Shield vs. 11 other Superstars. She then announces The Great Debate between Heyman and Zeb. Zeb says he wants to debate with Cesaro on turning his back. Zeb asks Heyman why he stole Cesaro. Heyman says Brock Lesnar ended The Streak about 20 times. Zeb asks again why he stole Cesaro. Heyman asks when was the last time a Zeb Colter Guy won. He said by the time Cesaro won the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, he was already a Heyman Guy. Zeb pushes over the podium and shoves Heyman. They start to get into it but are broken up.

* Cesaro defeated Jack Swagger with The Neutralizer. After the match, The Shield's music hits and they come out. Roman Reigns hits a Superman punch on Swagger and then they hit him with the triple powerbomb. Dean Ambrose said it looked like Swagger failed to adapt.

* The Shield b. Alberto Del Rio, Ryback, Bad News Barrett, Titus O’Neil & Damien Sandow in a handicap match to end the show.

Shield destroying everyone

Zeb/Heyman segment should be good on top of Cesaro/Swagger

Looks to be an awesome show, will watch​

 

[Tapout]

Friday Night Shield. Jesus. Gonna be worth watching just to see them screw shit up. And any day Fandango gets his ass kicked is a good day.

 

[Dale]

Sound interesting, i'll give it that. Will try and watch it see how it comes off.

 

[Dale]

Yeah The Shield stuff on here was pretty damn fun actually.

The Zeb / Heyman debate I thought was pretty damn awesome, would like them to stretch this out a bit longer actually. Having doubts over the Heyman/Cesaro partnership though.

Bray's promo inside the cage I thought was fucking immense, everything was just perfect about it.

That's all I watched though, none of the matches interested me.

 

[Chris]

Thought this was a good show. Agree with Dale that the things he watched were fucking awesome.

Cesaro's springboard uppercut thought

 

[Deezy]

Fandango got murdered.

And I think Heyman is going to eventually get a giant swing because he is not giving his new client the kind of attention as the one in 21-1.

 

[Dale]

Fandango got murdered.

Needs to be off of TV for a while before returning as creepy Johnny Curtis having sustained such trauma to his head he forgets who he was prior. Gets rid of this god awful gimmick that's never going to go anywhere.

 

[Deezy]

What's that mean for Layla though?

Far too old to be useful at anything else anymore.

 

[Dale]

She's been useless for the longest of time to be honest
