Tuesday Night SmackDown Discussion Thread 07/26; Time to see what Smackdowns' got

[Ricky Smarks]

Just because Raw has their announcers near the ramp doesn't mean that they're so different.

I think you quoted the wrong the wrong post.

Different in that it's not a re-run of matches from Raw.

Next week will be better because a couple of things have now been set up that took up a fair bit of time tonight. Tag Division spot was basically taken over by the Battle Royal.

Maybe 6 pack challenges will be Smackdowns thing and that may crown the Smackdown women's Champion at Summerslam.

It worked for Survivor Series 2001 and that saw the birth of Trish Stratus. That could be Alexa Bliss.

I didn't. He said smackdown is the same and I'm saying Raw is the same too besides their announce table.

Then I'd say you're so wrong it hurts. Raw was glorious. New theme song, new set, new announce table, new title belt, Seth Rollins didn't cut a 40 minutes promo (and neither did anyone else), Finn Balor debuted and won the number one contender's match, the women's match got the top of the hour change over and gave nearly 20 minutes on national TV and saw Sasha Banks win the championship. Raw was truly in a new era state of mind. Whether it continues or not we'll see.

SD kind of did the same thing. Dolph Ziggler got the victory. The WWE champ was off the show till the end. Becky and Natalya got time to shine.

And that's exactly what I said if you go back and read my original response.

The matches were decent. SmackDown Live just needs to work on getting some more uniqueness.

Absolutely. Samoa Joe, Austin Aries and Shinsuke Nakamura to name a few. If SmackDown Live grabbed these guys and Raw only took maybe Bayley, things would definitely balance out a lot better.

Can't purge NXT like that.

Joe can come up after he drops the belt to Nakamura. Bayley can come up in the fall too.

But Aries should feud with Nakamura, Itami before his call up. Nakamura can work with Itami too.

NXT doesn't have any main event depth right now; doesn't make sense to take the 3 they have.

They'll have 5 months until their next big PPV, they can use the TNA guys and cruiserweight to replenish.

In my honest opinion NXT needs to pull an ECW and develop new stars faster and on the fly. They would often lose 3-4 of their top guys at a whack and Paulie just made new superstars immediately. Unfortunately, NXT is going to be a raiding group with two brands needing new talent to full their time.

I really wanna see Roode vs Nakamura

That would be pretty bad ass. I'm sure WWE can make it happen before or after the call ups. They probably book it before and then just have Roode come back for the match at Takeover.
