Stolen from WF. I'm LOVING Orton on SmackDown

 

[Crippler]

That was some crazy shit that I still have to double blink to make sure I saw that right.

 

[Kairi]

it almost makes you wonder what he's going to do next

 

[Kairi]

His name and what we already know basically, lol.

I hope we have a Bryan/Cody fued being set up here. Cody's new character has been great, but without anyone to fued with since Rey he's just wandering around aimlessly.

Agreed. Those two could have quite the feud, I imagine.

Enjoyed Smackdown as a whole, I hope we're going to get a four way with Sheamus/Orton/Christian & Henry at Capitol Punishment.

Just got done with SmackDown and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Bryan/Ted was another fantastic match and for all the hate he gets, Ted can certainly work and has the look of a champion. I'd love to see Cara/Bryan vs Ted/Cody and given some time aswell because that has the potential to be a great match.

Mahal looked good from what I saw, same with Tamina aswell for that matter.

Really enjoyed Orton/Sheamus and I must be one of a very select few who seem to enjoy the two together. Thought the match was really good and the Christian turn at the end was great and did seem a fully fledged heel turn.

 

[Kairi]

woo christian to start

 

[Kairi]

no not cole christian, not cole!

 

[PHX]

Good heel turn. Would be funny if he got himself a manager to talk to the fans for him since he isn't doing it anymore.

Smackdown was again a good show, but it was nothing outstanding. Ever since the draft, it feels as though I've been watching the same show over and over again. I thought they overplayed Christian/Orton on the show, the opening promo was fine, but the mid show promo and then the belt shot at the end was kinda overkill I thought. I guess it establishes Christian as full on heel though, which is good. Sheamus/Orton was good and I'm normally not a fan of those two together, the tag match with Bryan/Cara vs. Rhodes/DiBiase was fun and I hope they do a rematch preferably at Capitol Punishment as it's been built.

Also, AJ's theme music is the greatest thing ever. Real talk.

Even though it was essentially the same show that we've seen the past few weeks, I once again enjoyed the hell out of it. Good wrestling and good storyline progression. Christian/Orton is building great and they're even doing a damn fine job of keeping Sheamus relevant in the feud. Bryan/Cara/Ted/Cody is also progressing nicely and constantly getting good matches out of whatever combination they give us. Glad to see The Corre has come to an end now aswell, it's well and truly run it's course with the constant run ins.

Guess they are trying to make Christians reason for turning legit since they are really making Teddy do Christian totally bad, lol.
