SmackDown Live Live SmackDown Discussion thread, December 1st 2023: Survivor Series fallout feat. Randy Orton (maybe)

[O-Blaze]

Blaming him as he was part of the bloodline. Plus he is mad over him just being forgiven as well

Then why whine about Jey and clash at the castle? I don’t know it makes no sense. I just hate it lol.

I did see that Drew actually addressed that by saying that even though Jay was not there that one time, it doesn't make all his other sins go away and he was complicit. Just so happens the rest of the bloodline is on Smackdown so Jay gonna be the one to feel his wrath. it's not perfect but ig thats why he is a heel, his refusal to forgive and forget even though Jay has changed is what makes him a justified jerk. at least from the small amount ive seen, im not really invested i just saw a few of his social media promos

Like I said, that’s all good and all. But like the man has literally blamed Jey for him not having the title. Unless there’s a match I forgot about where Jey cost him, that’s the part that just irks me. Like it’s probably a small complaint but meh. I just wish they thought it through more at the beginning

It's why he is a bad guy. His anger is focused on the wrong person and not letting go of the past

 

[Roy Mustang]

Like he has reasons for it but he is wrong and going about his anger the wrong way

 

[Chris]

I Mean Blaze tbh the reaction you're having about it is probably the intended one, it's basically what Cole says every week on Raw

And that’s my issue, the wrong person. If he was mad at the right person I wouldn’t care about him not letting go of the past, that’s understandable. But being mad at Jey just don’t sit right with me. Thankfully it’s the only two stories I have an issue with, and can enjoy everything else to an extent

I mean probably. I mean even my Bayley one Graves was pointing out so

 

[Jimmy King]

I mean, it didn’t make sense when KO told Cody that Jey was the reason he’s not champ but it was Solo that cost Cody the title.

But that's a pretty human story, wouldn't you think? Blaming the wrong person for your problems, because humans are irrational, they're flawed.

I can let that one slide a little bit because Jey did kinda get involved in the match and it may not exactly be the ending but it’s a little bit more forgivable since its not like Jey had no involvement in the match

 

[O-Blaze]

I’m fine thinking different than everyone on these stories however. Wouldn’t be fun to always agree. I still love y’all

Even Dale

Tbh I like a majority of the storylines going on on RAW at least, haven't been able to watch SmackDown for a while.

Oh yeah I like most also. It’s like legit one story per the two brands I don’t like, which makes it easy to enjoy the shows.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Obviously the Judgement Day feels like it's close to running its course, so maybe we'll get back to dissention in the works, and Finn Balor & JD splitting from Rhea/Dom/Priest

Would be funny if Bayley was actually just using the language barrier to play victim and look like shes the odd man out when really they want her there and shes turning on them.
