SmackDown Live Live SmackDown Discussion thread, August 23rd 2024: Two Title matches

[Tommy Shelby]

Still think it’s just going to be a part of the Orton/Cody story

Wouldn't it be a rubbish if randy got another title shot after Gunther ? Or are you meaning long term wise ? I thought he might be sticking on RAW because he didn't want to go after Cody.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Give Jacob Fatu a oscar for selling the foot injury lol. Man's walking with purpose again !

 

[Tommy Shelby]

I think Cody has his hair dyed a bit longer than usual looks like a grey colour lmfao

And Waller deflecting from him using theory. Pretty decent so far.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Magic Mike I'm dying

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Well that's made me happy K.Ody v A-Town Down Under. Nice one Nick Aldis ( wouldn't mind seeing him wrestle in WWE as well ) Cody planting those tiny seeds of doubt look at K.O for fans watching . Good opening segment.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Absolutely no reaction for Santos . He's just boring for me. Hope my guy fav wrestler of the year takes him to task and shows him why everybody's saying L.A.Knight YEAH!

Bye Bye Angel and Berto. Let B-Fab stay tho. She's fine.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Just finished watching L.A v Santos that was a real good match. I'll give credit where it's due Santos is good in ring and gave Knight a real good go just now. I like knights middle turnbuckle elbow drop and the BFG is a fine finishing move. Its a finisher I've seen before from somewhere else I just can't recall who from

 

[Tommy Shelby]

I remember the bulldog v Owen match with fond memories as in watched it as youngster and was the last competitive match bulldog and Owen had. Nattie doing the voice for the segment was really nice too.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Jacob Fatu giving Tanga Loa the title is what's best for new bloodline business in my opinion he's destined for bigger and better things. Man's a machine and doing this only going to enhance him going forward. Lol the crowd shouting to tanga you can't wrestle made me smile .

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Pretty decent match G.O.D v Street Profits Montez is really impressive again and I don't think Dawkins is great but he ain't bad either. Wonder what happened to tanga eye patch lol. They way Jacob does the Samoan backdrop is really damn fine, he throws him up and lands on his back on top of them with so much precise it's the best version I've ever seen ever.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Good ending to Smackdown. I'm really looking forward to bash in berlin next Saturday. This week's show was really good and long may it continue.

 

[Dale]

That's pretty awesome

Long term. I fully expect this shift to Raw to just be a one off.

After losing to Gunther decisively this time, Orton goes back to SD. And eventually he sets his sights on Cody.

Orton has been by Cody’s side since WarGames. Eventually Randy is going to bring up the fact that Cody gave KO a title shot that Owens didn’t even want. Randy is going to wonder when Cody is going to give him a shot. Cody doesn’t do it cause….reasons and boom we’re off to the races with heel Orton.

I like this idea sounds very well thought about and hopefully it happens.
