*SPOILERS* WWE SmackDown Tapings for 12/7/12

[Dale]

* Sheamus and Big Show kick off SmackDown. They're brought out to sign an agreement saying they won't touch each other until the TLC pay-per-view. They argue and Show is booked to wrestle next.

* Big Show defeated Daniel Bryan. After the match, Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns come out and attack Bryan until Kane makes the save. They end up beating Kane down and put him through the Spanish announcers table.

* Heath Slater, Drew McIntyre and Jinder Mahal defeated Brodus Clay and The Usos.

* Damien Sandow comes out and he's looking for an apprentice. He brings a fan in the ring and ends up dismissing him after some questions. The Miz interrupts and they have words.

* Kofi Kingston comes out for commentary. Randy Orton defeated Wade Barrett after Kofi distracted him.

* The Great Khali and Hornswoggle beat Epico and Primo. Rosa Mendes and Natalya argued at ringside.

* Antonino Cesaro comes out to cut a promo but gets attacked by R-Truth. Truth vs. Cesaro is announced for TLC.

* Sheamus beat Alberto Del Rio in the main event by submission. Big Show came out during the match and watched from the ramp. After the match, Show ran in the ring and dares Sheamus to hit him. Instead, Sheamus threw Ricardo Rodriguez into him.

Same old, same old.

 

[Crippler]

Jesus Christ are they that thin on talent and on ideas to book feuds and matches.

 

[Rated R Superstar]

Sheamus wins via submission? Did I miss something? When the fuck did he get a submission move?

 

[Dale]

Did you miss something? Yeah, only the past few months of programming it seems.

 

[Rated R Superstar]

Wait, is his submission that backbreaker type move? I remember seeing him have someone on his shoulders and holding them there.

 

[Crippler]

you talking about the Cloverleaf. That he's been using in every match since Booker banned the Brogue against Del Rio in June.

 

[AZUCAR!]

Michael Hayes & creative need better ideas fast, otherwise I wouldn't be surprised to see another creative shakeup only this time on the SD side. Because SD has sucked now for months and it seems like it's going to continue into 2013...

 

[Embrace Thou Maryse]

This looks truly awful. I remember when SD was the best wrestling show on TV now its just obvious that they've exhausted all their ideas. Time for some new writers on SD, they damn near have the same matches every single week.

 

[Andrew]

Rather watch NXT...

 

[SAIYANS]

Only thing. Find interesting is Clay and the Usos. If they pushed that idea they could have a Kishi and Too Cool like stable with those 3 and the girls. Just fun and simple act in the mid card and tag scene

 

[The Cork]

Never thought I'd be saying this, but fucking hell do they miss Mark Henry or what.

 

[PHX]

Only thing. Find interesting is Clay and the Usos. If they pushed that idea they could have a Kishi and Too Cool like stable with those 3 and the girls. Just fun and simple act in the mid card and tag scene

That kind of came to mind about using them as a Too Cool like group but doubt they actually do it.

As for the show it seems like it's the same formula every week with a few minor differences. Smackdown always goes through this where they just become a very stagnant show.

 

[SAIYANS]

Seems like a waste. Clay has lost steam, but is still over, and the Usos never gained steam outside NXT. Use the 3MB or Sield format and form a stable. It got his dad over and made Hotty/Sexay very relevant. I see no reason why they couldn't just associate them together and form some collaborative dance routines and 6 man tag/save work. It just adds one more act.

They also need to go full blast with Rosa and ADR, but have her talk Primo and Epico into joining them as his full time tag team lackeys. When Hunico returns throw him in with them too as the thug.

I personally think Camacho can be used in a different capacity, maybe as muscle for Maddox as he's big enough to play the Zeke role but better

 

[PHX]

Show just needs something that is remotely compelling. Raw you got the whole is the Shield and Maddox working with Punk or not and even if it has gotten silly you have the Cena/Vickie/AJ thing. Smackdown just doesn't seem to push storylines just rather guy A and guy B doing basic we're feuding with each other stuff. Del Rio is the kind of guy who screams stable leader so I wouldn't be opposed to the idea you pitch as it would help make him interesting and actually have a storyline.

 

[SAIYANS]

SD used to be the home of Edge, Rey, Taker, and Dave for so long after the split and even when Cena was sent to Raw with the lottery after WM21. It just lacks that fire those four brought to it
