Not sure what all the hate was about all over the internet this week. That was one of the best Smackdowns in a while.

Sheamus v DB and RKO v Christian were both great TV matches! My review for anyone interested.

The hate isn't over the show the hate is simply over Christian losing the belt so fast. Was a great match though and since they took the time to highlight his reaction closing the show it seems like he'll do a slow heel turn deal.

: @ how Cole tripped Layla when she tried to run. That was too damn funny but wish Kharma would have got Cole.

Another quality Smackdown. Is there a better wrestling show on television?

Really enjoyed this SD. Once again brought it in ring wise. Cara/Bryan was just damn great stuff. Didn't want to see the match end and made me wish they got a PPV match. Ted/Cody was fine and the main event was good.

In the process of watching this week's SmackDown. Holy crap was Cara vs Bryan good. I'd love to see them have another match, preferably soon.

In itself, the booking of a Cara/Bryan match took me most by surprise. Why the hell hadn't i even considered a match between those two before? It was gold from start to finish and i really hope they fued (especially with Bryan as the heel. While i'm at it, how awesome would a Bryan vs heel Christian be? C'mon...)

I didn't bother to watch the main event (i usually skip main events unless they actually interest me) but I think i'm going to enjoy this Randy/Christian fued. Its something fresh and could lead to something interesting, and i know that Christian won't skip on this opportunity to establish his best chance to prove he's a top draw, escpecially now that Edge is gone and he is no longer in Edge's shadow. Could even lead to the best work of Christian's career, there's surely enough motivation there.

No Kharma was a let down

: @ Cody bitching Ted ... good times as history repeats itself and shows that a Rhodes is always greater than a DiBiase

 

[PHX]

It was brought to my attention but I find it interesting that Legacy is all on the same show again.

 

[SAIYANS]

LOL, what the fuck did Orton just do after the RKO

I have to be seeing shit

 

[PHX]

Same thing I said : that was one of the weirdest things I've ever seen him do.
