- Nice starting segment with Sheamus going over, would have prefered if Christian got a win.

- Backstage segment and DiBiase winning can be skipped.

- Henry/Bryan once again, they're making Bryan look real good. Nice of Big Show to make the save, i'd say the promo will be re-edited.

- Epico, Hunico & Primo are now a stable! Seriously love this and the fact USO's are on fucking Smackdown at last!

- Barrett over Orton, OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

So the last two matches are what I like about the show, but it looks like a show I could miss besides the last 2 matches.

Sounds decent. I'm not a real fan of overseas shows. I do think Show will be saved by Kane at MSG though.

 

[PHX]

Always wanting some kind of way for Kane to comeback lol.

Wade beating Orton is very shocking and maybe they are really trying to repush the guy. But since that happened doubt his team will win at SS now. And started to get worried there that Teddy wasn't getting his tag team match fix on for a bit.

Damn that piece of shit Orton buring everyone...

That's what pisses me off. They should really be going over on PPV but that's looking impossible now. It's not surprising looking at both teams, but still.

As for if they're trying to re-push Barrett, I don't know, but I'm not believing WWE is behind Barrett until he's world champion. Beating Orton 10 times isn't going to change that.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Doesn't look like a bad show.

 

[The New F'n Show]

Nice to see someone like Barrett looking strong and I like the potential of a Hunico, Epico, Primo pairing.

 

[Diablo]

Looks like a solid show albeit a bit unspectacular. Smackdown is looking a LOT better than Raw as of late..they offer different matches and the storylines and main events are rehashed week in and week out.

Looking forward to seeing the Daniel Bryan stuff along with the Barrett segment on Youtube.

 

[SAIYANS]

They have a chance to be better than the Mexicools, or what they were supposed to be.

 

[Troy]

Very happy that Primo has been brought into this group and hasn't been left to suffer on Superstars. They have the core of a good group here and hopefully they get heavily involved with the tag team title scene once Bourne returns. Give them the Freebird rule as well so any two of the three can defend it. Hopefully Hunico remains the leader of the group.

I am happy that Barrett is getting this push again. He and Orton pair up well and this would be a great way to get Barrett back into the mainevent. I had wanted this feud to happen but I had expected Barrett to go through Kane first. Hopefully this isn't it for Rhodes, I don't want him dropping back down the card, he needs another top face to feud with.

Damn that piece of shit Orton buring everyone...

I support this statement.

Mexicants rolling on Smackdown.

 

[Diablo]

I support this statement.

Mexicants rolling on Smackdown.

I'm not really sure how anyone can support that...I doubt that it's Orton deliberately holding a grudge against anyone and "burying" them. He's a major presence in the company and since he isn't holding the world championship he needs a few more victories to stay relevant in a casual fan's mind. It's just booking 101..having Orton lose to anyone in anything less than spectacular fashion is both devaluing Orton and what a victory against him will do. It's what makes beating John Cena such an accomplishment--it's rarely done.

People remember the Ultimate Warrior beating Hogan at WM VI because Hogan had largely been an unstoppable force. People remember Cena beating JBL because JBL was a great heel champion who lost when it meant something. The same goes for Eddie-Brock, Triple H(multiple cases...Cena, Batista, Benoit) and more recently with Del Rio defeating Cena.

It's a shame the belt has been thrown around as much as it has, but WWE knows how to book their top stars well.

 

[Deezy]

Calm down hambone, it was a joke.

People in the know got it.

 

[Troy]

Is there anyone else on the forum that dislikes what WWE are doing with Jinder Mahal?

When he first debuted I was happy that WWE had created a new team in Mahal and Khali but then WWE broke them up before they were a team. Then Jinder Mahal has been buried every time he has been on tv. I don't understand why they brought him to the roster only to have him job out every week. I think that he had potential as a midcard heel but he hasn't had a chance to succeed.
