Spoiler: Smackdown Live Results

Miz TV

The New Day came out. The Miz wanted to know who they were sending to the MITB ladder match. They didn't tell. They continued to do New Day like antics. They told Miz that they were sending Big E to the match. When Miz questioned them further, they told him that they meant a match with Miz right now. Miz refused, telling them if he didn't get what he wanted, the name of the MITB member, then they didn't get a match with him.

Backstage, Miz was talking with Paige. He informed her that he could beat any member of New Day and she made a match with Big E

Smackdown wasn't that bad this week. The Miz TV spot was good minus all the plugging. The matches were good excluding Sonya vs Naomi and Lana vs Billie Kay which was meh. Shinsuke's way of announcing the match stipulation was pretty entertaining. Overall, I give it a 7/10.

 

[WholeFN'Moe]

On a scale of 1 to 10... guessing meaning that 10 is the best it could possibly ever be

That means this gets a 5, if that.... Not a bad show by WWE standards, atleast if somebody was in the same room I didn't have to be embarrassed that I was watching it. Nothing too ridiculous like there usually is, couple of nice matches & a couple of good segments

Nothing overly exciting, especially looking back at history.

Even though i was in and out of the show, due to other things, what I was able to pay attention to was decent. I am giving it a 7.

The matches were decent TV matches. I liked the Miz vs Big E and Bryan vs Hardy. I was also pretty ecstatic with Lana won because I hate the Icconics. That was cool.

Decent show. Not great but watchable.

 

[The Gipper]

Pretty sure Iconics were just brought up to cost Charlotte the title lol.

WWE always does stupid stuff like that...

They brought No Way Jose up just to add another debut on the RAW after WM... he's a jobber already lol, they had no plans for this man.

Rusev, indirectly, even got people to cheer for Lana.. good lord, her match had like 2 moves in it and it still looked sloppy as hell. Hasn't she been training for like 3 years now?

Bryan vs Hardy this week, Bryan vs Joe next week, this is good for Smackdown. Just have bare and clean ass matches between your top guys each week to make Smackdown the wrestling show in contrast to Raw's sports entertainment show. It's exactly what you'd expect from the so called "B-show", to focus on the things Raw's mostly not focusing on

I decided to check it out today since I completely forgot about it yesterday and felt like seeing some wrestling. Hardy vs. Bryan and Miz vs. Big E. (especially Miz swinging under the bottom rope to hit a sliding dropkick to the knee of Big E.) were both good. Everything else struck me as boring and was skipped with the exception of Club vs. Usos, which was tremendously disappointing. I expected more out of both teams. I'm also mildly upset with Sonya Deville taking the L to Naomi. This show's a 3/10 for me. Paige's eyebrows look terrible, Lana's outfit looks terrible, the Iconics' actions as a whole were terrible, Lana's finisher is terrible, Graves' stuttering was terrible, Bryan's backstage interview was great, Joe raining on Bryan's parade was good, and the fact that the solution to a double count-out is to book a match where a double count-out can decide the winner is only slightly less stupid than the unending Nakamura-Styles feud. Just let AJ move on, please.

good lord, [Lana's] match had like 2 moves in it and it still looked sloppy as hell. Hasn't she been training for like 3 years now?

She's had 47 matches altogether and not one of them made her look anything close to decent in the ring. I don't have confidence in her being able to put on a good performance in the ladder match. Hopefully she gets taken out early and doesn't swing around a ladder with the grace of drunk gorilla.

Switching networks is fine, Friday's is also fine, but if they add a 3rd hour to smackdown, I'm just done.

[Grievous 3D]

Lana is in the women's MitB ladder match?

No room for Sasha or Bayley...but Lana is in the match?

Fuck you WWE...I am done with your bullshit...

 

[Arrow1]

Coming from my standards for WWE...

I'm rating SmackDown 10/10. Everything was done right. Lana might have been a short match, but that whole segment was fucking AWEEEEEESOME!
Pretty sure the only stupid clip was Mella, but thank god it was only like 20 seconds.
Plus, I prefer Lana over iitrashies anyway.
